Abstract
The study aims to explore the associations of maternal serum iodine concentrations (SIC) with thyroid function, obstetric, and birth outcomes. This was a prospective study embedded in the Huizhou Mother-Infant Cohort. Singleton mothers aged 18-45 years were enrolled at their first antenatal visits. Maternal SIC and thyroid markers were tested by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and electronic chemiluminescent assay, respectively. Obstetric and birth outcomes were retrieved from the Hospital Information System. Two nested 1:1 age and body mass index-matched case-control studies were embedded in the cohort including 224 pairs of mothers with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and 302 paired of newborns with small for gestational age (SGA) and their respective healthy controls. Multivariable linear and conditional logistic regression models were applied to explore the relationship of maternal SIC with obstetric complications and birth outcomes. A total of 1558 mothers were included for analysis. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis showed that maternal SIC in the 1st trimester (T1) had well diagnostic ability for clinical and subclinical hyperthyroidism, clinical hypothyroidism, and hypothyroxinemia with the areas under the curve of 0.907, 0.734, 0.867, and 0.927, respectively (all p < 0.05). Mothers in the highest quartile of SIC at T1 had an increased risk of SGA (OR = 2.043, 95% CI: 1.198-3.483, p = 0.009) but not for GDM risk. Maternal SIC were significantly and inversely associated with gestational weight gain (GWG), birth weight, and Ponderal index (all p < 0.05). SIC at T1 had well diagnostic values for thyroid dysfunction. High gestational SIC during early pregnancy were associated with lowered GWG, birth size, and increased risk of SGA.

期刊介绍:
Biological Trace Element Research provides a much-needed central forum for the emergent, interdisciplinary field of research on the biological, environmental, and biomedical roles of trace elements. Rather than confine itself to biochemistry, the journal emphasizes the integrative aspects of trace metal research in all appropriate fields, publishing human and animal nutritional studies devoted to the fundamental chemistry and biochemistry at issue as well as to the elucidation of the relevant aspects of preventive medicine, epidemiology, clinical chemistry, agriculture, endocrinology, animal science, pharmacology, microbiology, toxicology, virology, marine biology, sensory physiology, developmental biology, and related fields.
