  • Title: [Overall child development: beyond pharmacological iodine supplementation].
    Author: Gavilán E, Jiménez de Gracia L.
    Journal: Endocrinol Nutr; 2013 Dec; 60(10):577-81. PubMed ID: 23916171.
    Abstract:
    Iodine deficiency is a factor that may compromise child development, but is not the only one. Other health determinants, some of them outside the healthcare system, are able to influence development. Fighting iodine deficiency may be a pragmatic and useful strategy if it is found to be not maleficent, beneficial to health, and cost-effective, and does not make us lose the notion that child development goes beyond psychomotor or cognitive performance. This article analyzes such constraints from a critical point of view.
