Summary: Endemic goiter is still present in some regions of
Croatiaalthough iodination program have decreased the prevalencesharply.
Beacuse of less than optimum iodine intake theprevalence is unlikely to
change further until iodine content ofthe salt is increased from its
present level of 10 mg/KJ/kg.

Summary: The difference between both gastric cancer incidence and
totalcancer incidence between the northern and the southern surveyedregions
is statistically significant.The population of Croatiannorthern region has
a significantlly higher incidence rate ofgastric cancer as compared to the
southern surveyedregion.Dietary habits and food consumption survey of
testedpopulation from the mentioned regions revealed significantdifferences
regarding consumption of main dietary components.Eventhough a mechanism by
which diet may affect carcinogenessis isstill a matter of study, at present
it is possible to concludethat gastric cancer incidence and other diet
related cancers inthe northern regions of Croatia could be strongly
associated andinfluenced by dietary factors such as high protein intake
-mostlyof animal origin , a higher intake fats, mostly saturated and alower
intake of vitamins and A in comparisson to the dietaryhabits and cancer
incidence of the southern region.
Keywords: dietary habits,gastric cancer, cancer prevention, protective substances.

Summary: Before introduction of iodine prophylaxis the most
intensive fociof goiter in Croatia were located on the banks of
riversDrava,Sava and comprised particularly the hilly regions of
thenorthwest.Goiter free areas were found along the AdriaticCoast.The
examinations of the urinary excreation of iodinesuggested that iodine
deficiency should be considered as theprincipal etiological faactor. In the
village Rude near zagreb in1949 goiter was found in 85% and in Zagreb in
1953 in 46 % ofschoolchildren. Mandatory iodine prophylaxis by iodination
ofall salt for human and animal use was introduced in 1953. Thelevel of
iodin was 10 mg of KJ/1 kg of NaCl. Dramatic reductionof goiter prevalence
was recorded especially in the most affectedareas. The dissapearance of
endemic cretenism was observed inrelation to the decrease of goiter
prevalence.Thirty years afterintroduction of iodine prophylaxis it was
concluded that endemicgoiter has been mainly eradicated as public health
problem andthat there was no real risk of cretenism. Recently there
havebeen, however, some some disturbing reports about the presence ofa
rather high prevalence of goiter among schoolchildren. Theprevalence of
goiter was assesed by palpating the neck of a total2017 schoolchildren in
the age group 7-15 years in 8communities. The overall goiter prevalence
varied from 8-36 %.The urinary excretion of iodine in schoolchildren in
Zagrebvaried from 1.6 to 24.4 ug/dl with a median of 9.0. In Rudeurinary
iodine varied from 0.5 to 19 ug /dl with a median of7.4 ug /dl and 30%
below 5 ug /dl. Thyroid volume determined byultrasonic scanning in
schoolchildren in Zagreb was in 13 yearold children 10.2+/-2.3 ml (x+/- D).
Although found goiters aremainly stage 1a ,the results indicate mild
endemic goiter in someparts of Croatia. Urinary iodine excretion
measurements suggestmild iodine deficiency in those parts of country .The
existinggoitre prevalence could be mainly a result of a defectiveiodination
program and inadequate iodination. In recent controlof salt from all
manufacturers out of 55 samples, 70% showediodine contents lower than the
prescribed amount.

Summary: The paper contains the results of an investigation of the
spread of goiter and the effect of iodine prophylaxis in
Croatia.Epidemiological survey and the results of clinical examinations
indicate a considerable change in goiter prevalence among school children
in Croatia, after the significant decrease of goiter as a result of
mandatory salt iodination which was introduced 1953. The results of
regional investigation obtained of sonography, palpation and
iodine/creatinine excretion show that in the age group 7-11 years the
overal goiter prevalence among the school children in was 19 %, Slavonia 18
%, Primorje 12 % and Dalmatia region 6 % during 1992-1994 year.
