Journal ArticleDOI
The global challenge of hidden hunger: perspectives from the field.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the strategies employed to tackle micronutrient deficiencies with illustrations from field-based experience and highlight the need to address inequalities within the food system to improve the nutritional quality of diets for the poorest people.

Fortification of bread with iodized salt corrected iodine deficiency in school-aged children, but not in their mothers: a national cross-sectional survey in Belgium.
Stefanie Vandevijvere,Ahmed Bensouda Mourri,Sihame Amsalkhir,Fred E. Avni,Herman Van Oyen,Rodrigo Moreno-Reyes +5 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the median UIC in children may not be an adequate surrogate of adults' iodine status, and monitoring iodine status should not be limited to children, but should be extended to women of child-bearing age.

Jingbin Zeng,Yingying Cao,Chun-Hua Lu,Xu-dong Wang,Qianru Wang,Cong-Ying Wen,Jian-Bo Qu,Yuan Cunguang,Zifeng Yan,Xi Chen +9 more
TL;DR: Au@Ag core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized and coupled with copper ion (Cu(2+)) for the colorimetric sensing of iodide ion (I(-)), which exhibited excellent selectivity for I(-) over other common anions tested.

A dose-response crossover iodine balance study to determine iodine requirements in early infancy
Susanne Dold,Michael B. Zimmermann,Jeannine Baumgartner,Tabea Davaz,Valeria Galetti,Christian Braegger,Maria Andersson +6 more
TL;DR: The data indicate the iodine requirement in 2- to 5-mo-old infants is 70 μg/d, and adding an allowance for accumulation of thyroidal iodine stores would produce an EAR of 72 μg and a recommended dietary allowance of 80 μg.

Insufficient maternal iodine intake is associated with subfecundity, reduced foetal growth, and adverse pregnancy outcomes in the Norwegian Mother, Father and Child Cohort Study.
Marianne Hope Abel,Ida Henriette Caspersen,Verena Sengpiel,Bo Jacobsson,Bo Jacobsson,Helle Margrete Meltzer,Per Magnus,Jan Alexander,Anne Lise Brantsæter +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that a low iodine intake was associated with restricted foetal growth and a higher prevalence of preeclampsia in these mild-to-moderately iodine-deficient women.

Dietary reference intakes: vitamin A, vitamin K, arsenic, boron, chromium, copper, iodine, iron, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, silicon, vanadium, and zinc.
TL;DR: The DRIs represent the new approach adopted by the Food and Nutrition Board to providing quantitative estimates of nutrient intakes for use in a variety of settings, replacing and expanding on the past 50 years of periodic updates and revisions of the Recommended Dietary Allowances.

J. I. Jones,David R. Clemmons +1 more
TL;DR: In recognition of its generalized pleiotypic actions, sulfation factor was renamed somatomedin (mediator of the effects of somatotropin) and was included in the emerging classification of broad spectrum growth factors along with platelet derived growth factor, fibroblast growth factors, and epidermal growth factor.

Dietary reference intakes for vitamin A, vitamin K, arsenic, boron, chromium, copper, iodine, iron, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, silicon, vanadium, and zinc : a report of the Panel on Micronutrients, Subcommittees on Upper Reference Levels of Nutrients and of Interpretation and Use of Dietary Reference Intakes, and the Standing Committee on the Scientific Evaluation of Dietary Reference Intakes, Food and Nutrition Board, Institute of Medicine
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the scientific literature regarding dietary micronutrients, recommendations have been formulated regarding vitamins A and K, iron, iodine, chromium, copper, manganese, molybdenum, zinc, and other potentially beneficial trace elements such as boron to determine the roles, if any, they play in health.
