Abstract: Variation of the stable iodine supply was evaluated in the soils of around more than 700 settlements in the regions (oblasts) of Belarus and the Russian Federation contaminated after the Chernobyl accident…. Estimates of iodine availability from different types of soils were corrected for volumetric weight and adjusted for the type of settlement in order to assign the stable iodine status for each subject in a case–control study of thyroid cancer risk following the Chernobyl accident. The epidemiological study found a significant modifying effect of iodine deficiency on the risk of thyroid cancer following exposure to radioiodines.
