Abstract

Last autumn of 1927 I accepted a proposal of the Mari Autonomous Province Department of Health to investigate the iodine content in the drinking water of some villages affected by goiter, having made a trip to take samples and to observe the local morbidity. As far as I know from available Russian literature of the last years, similar researches were not made in our country, and therefore it seems to me, the results received by me, will be interesting for the publication. I visited some villages in Zvenigskiy canton of the region and I did 16 tests on iodine content in water samples taken in these villages. I will briefly summarize the data of my inspection, as well as the results of the analyses.
