Iodine Deficiency Disorders PowerPoint Template Content

• Nice looking cover slides to start your Iodine deficiency disorders PPT presentation with.

• Editable table of contents that will help you explain the contents of your Iodine deficiency disorders PPT presentation.  

Characteristics of Iodine

• Introductory slides describe the chemical structure of Iodine, molecular weight and atomic number.
• Iodine with the symbol 'I' is a dark grey or purple-blackish nonmetallic element with atomic number 53 in the Periodic Table.

Medical icons explaining Iodine functions

• Functions of iodine include thyroid, growth, temperature, energy level and metabolism.

Anatomical illustrations of the thyroid gland

• Medical illustrations discuss the anatomy of the Thyroid gland and the surrounding structures, Thyroid cartilage, Thyroid gland and Trachea.

Animated slides visualize the steps of Iodide absorption, stimulation and formation of thyroid hormones.

Iodine absorption from blood to the thyroid gland

• Animated illustrations in Iodine deficiency disorders PPT slides show the active uptake of iodide (I-) by the follicular cells involves an energy-requiring (ATPase-dependent) transport mechanism that allows I- to be taken up from capillary blood against both a concentration and an electrical gradient in exchange for Na+.
• Iodide is “trapped” in the thyroid gland's follicular cells by an active transport mechanism that NIS mediates.
• Once in the gland, iodine is rapidly bound to thyroglobulin (TG) and retention no longer requires active transport.

Formation of thyroid hormone

• Impressive, animated illustrations in the Iodine deficiency disorders PPT visualize the critical role of iodide ions in the formation of thyroid hormones.

Thyroid gland stimulation by the pituitary gland

• Animated illustrations demonstrate that the pituitary gland releases thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) followed by the stimulation of thyroid hormones.

Medical icons showing Iodine sources

• Sources of iodine such as iodized salt, milk, eggs, chicken and shellfish.
• The daily reference intake of iodine is visualized with a chart.

Explanation of the mechanism of the thyroid gland enlargement

• An animated illustration shows that iodine deficiency enlarges the thyroid gland to capture as much iodide as possible.
• Goiter is an enlargement of the thyroid gland and Endemic goiter is an iodine-deficiency disease (IDD).
• A comparative illustration shows normal and enlarged thyroid glands.

Iodine deficiency prevalence

• The prevalence of Iodine deficiency on global and local levels is visualized in the infographic.
• Pie charts show that the disease has decreased in the last 30 years.
• You can change the percentage and country of the prevalence according to your data.

Mechanism of hypothyroidism

• Animated illustrations in Iodine deficiency disorders PPT show that the thyroid gland cannot produce Thyroid hormones due to Iodine deficiency.
• As a result, the pituitary gland produces more TSH to stimulate the thyroid gland further. While unable to make hormones without iodine, the thyroid responds to TSH by growing.

Risk factors of Iodine deficiency in PPT animated design

• Medical icons explain the risk factors, including goitrogenic food consumption, iodine-depleted soil, environmental toxin exposure, drinking tap water, low iodine intake and pregnancy problems.

Symptoms of iodine deficiency

• Symptoms are explained with visuals of weight gain, depression, thyroid problems, lethargy, pregnancy problems and dry skin.

Illustrated Impact of iodine deficiency on children

• This impact is visualized in the Iodine deficiency disorders PPT with medical icons representing:

1. Jeopardizing mental health.
2. Affect intelligence quotient.
3. Impact Reproductive Functions.

Impact on a pregnant woman

• Medical icons of Iodine deficiency disorders PPT visualize the Impact on pregnant women, including stillbirth, spontaneous abortion, irreversible forms of mental retardation in children and congenital abnormalities such as cretinism.

Diagnostic methods of iodine deficiency

• Diagnosis is explained with medical illustrations, including a thyroid ultrasound, a thyroid scan and a thyroid blood test.

Iodine deficiency treatment options

• Treatment options are visualized and explained with illustrations of iodine supplements, administration of iodine solutions and Hormone therapy.
• You can add or remove the treatment options in this PowerPoint slide.
• The best way to prevent iodine deficiency is to eat a diet that includes foods that have iodine and use adequate iodized salt.
