Abstract

Conducting radiation-epidemiological cohort study showed that children and adolescents exposed to iodine radionuclides, there was increase autoimmune thyroiditis incidence. The average increase in the incidence was 1.6 cases per 1000 person-Gy or 8,2 % per unit increase in dose (1,0 Gy). However, only in boys aged 0-3 years were obtained statistically significant estimates of radiation risk: the excess relative risk (ERR) - 0,73 to 1,0 Gy (CI = 0,017 ÷ 1,44), excess absolute risk (EAR) - 3,1 per 104 person-year Gy (CI = 0,25 ÷ 5,87) and the attributive risk - 42,2 %.
