Iodine deficiency older people in iodine-deficient areas due to hyperthyroidism. In view of large-scale epidemiological studies of iodine levels in populations, a method of capillary electrophoresis with UV detection of iodine has been proposed. Iodine deficiency Iodine deficiency is a lack of the trace element iodine, an essential nutrient in the diet. It may result in a goiter, sometimes as an endemic goiter as well as cretinism due to untreated congenital hypothyroidism, which results in developmental delays and other health problems. Iodine deficiency is an important public health issue as it is a preventable cause of intellectual disability. Iodine is an essential
ZC4H2 deficiency neurological manifestations. These can include: To date, there is no cure or effective treatment for this condition. Current approach is limited to supportive therapies and interventions. ZC4H2 deficiency ZC4H2 (Zinc finger C4H2-type) is a protein-coding gene located on the X-chromosome. This gene encodes a protein which is a member of the so-called zinc finger domain-containing protein family. There is currently very limited understanding about the ZC4H2 gene and its protein function. Any pathogenic variant of ZC4H2 which is associated with a clinical phenotype is referred to as "ZC4H2 Deficiency". The limited research published to date indicates that ZC4H2 is expressed
