[[Endemic]] cretinism results from a diet deficient in [[iodine]]. Iodine deficiency results in enlargement of the [[thyroid gland]], physical development hypoevolutism and mental development impairment. As a public health problem, many countries have established the policy of iodine administration. New born screening can help diagnose the disease in the first [[trimester]].
