Popis: | Three methods for estimating the plasma inorganic iodine (PII) and 2 for estimating the absolute iodine uptake (AIU) by the thyroid are compared. PII1, derived from the urinary 127I excretion over a 90 min period and the U/P ratio of radioiodine, correlates well with PII3, derived also from the same urinary 127I but the U/P ratio of creatinine instead of radioiodine. On the other hand, PIL does not correlate well with, and is significantly lower than, PII2, calculated from the 24 hr urinary 127I and the renal iodide clearance. Similarly, AIU1, calculated from PII1 and the thyroidal iodide clearance, does not correlate well with, and is systematically lower than, AIU2, calculated from the 24 hr urinary 127I and the thyroid uptake. It is concluded that, although the use of PII and AIU estimates is essential for a complete understanding of iodine kinetics, results obtained with different methods are not necessarily comparable. |
