No studies have been conducted to verify whether the increasing frequency of OW and obesity in schoolchildren may affect the evaluation of iodine nutritional status in populations. The aim of this study was to verify whether urinary iodine concentration (UIC), thyroid volume (TV), and thyroid hypoechoic pattern may be affected by body mass index (BMI) in schoolchildren. Methods The children included in this study (aged 11-13 years) were a part of the schoolchildren recruited in the second nationwide survey (period 2015-2019) conducted in Italy to monitor by law (Atto di Intesa Stato-Regioni February 26, 2009) the nationwide iodine prophylaxis program. Specifically, 1281 schoolchildren residing in iodine-sufficient areas (IS group) and 384 children residing in a still mildly iodine-deficient area (ID group) were recruited between January and March 2015 in the first-degrren than in OB children (p  less then  0.01) Conclusions This study for the first time demonstrates that BMI may be a confounding factor in monitoring iodine nutritional status in schoolchildren. Since in Italy as in other Western countries the number of OW and OB children is high, BMI is a factor to consider in monitoring salt iodization programs worldwide.Audiovisual and narrative information are often used in online decision aids. However, few studies have tested whether these strategies are more effective compared to other types of information. We tested the effect of these strategies on satisfaction with the information, recall and informed decision-making in a 2 (Modality audiovi
