STUDY OF THE KAP INDICATORS IN IODINE DEFICIENCY AMONG THE POPULATION OF SAMARKAND REGION AND ANALYSIS OF THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH URINE IODINE CONCENTRATION
Keywords:
Iodine deficiency, iodine intake, urinary iodine concentration, KAP analysis, Samarkand region population, pregnant women, iodized salt, health interventions, iodine-related diseasesAbstract
This study aimed to assess the level of knowledge, knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) on iodine deficiency among the population of Samarkand region, especially pregnant women, and to determine their relationship with urinary iodine concentration (UIC). The study found that the level of knowledge of the respondents about iodine is average, and their attitudes are generally positive, but practice is insufficient. It was noted that iodine consumption in rural areas is particularly low compared to urban residents. The results of regression analysis showed that sufficient knowledge and positive attitudes about iodine consumption have a positive effect on the level of UIC. The results of the study emphasize the need for targeted health interventions to increase iodine intake and reduce iodine deficiency-related diseases.
