dc.description.abstractAfter a recommendation for iodine supplementation in pregnancy has been issued in 2013 in Portugal, there were no studies covering iodine status in pregnancy in the country. The aim of this study was to assess iodine status in pregnant women in Porto region and its association with iodine supplementation. A cross-sectional study was conducted at Centro Hospitalar Universitário São João, Porto, from April 2018 to April 2019. Pregnant women attending the 1st trimester ultrasound scan were invited to participate. Exclusion criteria were levothyroxine use, gestational age<10 and≥14 weeks, non-evolutive pregnancy at recruitment and non-signing of informed consent. Urinary iodine concentration (UIC) was measured in random spot urine by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. Median UIC was 104 μg/L (IQR 62–189) in the overall population (n=481) of which 19% had UIC<50 µg/L. Forty three percent (n=206) were not taking an iodine-containing supplement (ICS) and median UIC values were 146 µg/L (IQR 81–260) and 74 µg/L (IQR 42–113) in ICS users and non-users, respectively (p<0.001). Not using an ICS was an independent risk factor for iodine insufciency [adjusted OR (95% CI)=6.00 (2.74, 13.16); p<0.001]. Iodised salt use was associated with increased median iodine-to-creatinine ratio (p<0.014). A low compliance to iodine supplementation recommendation in pregnancy accounted for a mild-to-moderately iodine defciency. Our results evidence the need to support iodine supplementation among pregnant women in countries with low household coverage of iodised salt.pt_PT
