    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Urinary creatinine can be used to adjust urinary iodine to evaluate iodine nutritional status during pregnancy. However, the reference intervals and impact factors of urinary creatinine are unknown. METHODS: 24 h urine creatinine concentration (24 hUCr) and spot UCr at four different time periods of the day of pregnant women from Part 1 (n = 743) were measured. Linear regression analysis was performed to identify the impact factors of 24 h urinary creatinine excretion (24 hUCrE) and obtain the estimated 24 h urinary creatinine excretion (24 hUCrEest). Then measured urinary iodine concentration (UIC) of 24 h and at fasting of pregnant women from Part 2 (n = 325), used spot urinary iodine to creatinine concentration ratio (UIC/UCr) and 24 hUCrEest to calculate the estimated 24 h urinary iodine excretion (24 hUIEest), finally checked the consistency and correlation of 24 hUIEest and 24 h urinary iodine excretion (24 hUIE). RESULTS: In Part 1, the median 24 hUCrE was 1.24(IQR0.98-1.76)g, and the reference interval was 0.61-2.93 g. The median 24 hUCr was 0.76 (IQR0.57-1.01)g/L, and the reference interval was 0.36-1.88 g/L. Multiple linear regression results showed that pregnancy weight was an influencing factor to 24 hUCrE after adjusting by gestational weeks, age, pre-pregnancy BMI, and percentage of body fat (F = 45.029, p<0.001). In Part 2, there was no statistically significant difference between 24 hUIEest and 24 hUIE (Z =-0.767, p = 0.443). Using 24hUIE as the gold standard, the relative average difference in 24hUIEest was 4.2 %, the relative average differences for UIC and UIC/UCr were 32.4 % and 37.2 %. The reference interval of 24 hUIE and 24 hUIEest were 88.43-585.90 μg and 50.97-700.39 μg, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The reference intervals of 24 hUCrE, spot UCr, 24 hUIE, and 24 hUIEest during pregnancy were established. 24 hUCrE has important application value in iodine nutrition evaluation to gain more lead time for pregnant women with iodine nutrition-related diseases.
