This study investigates the intricate relationship between essential microelement exchange and the prevalence of microcirculatory dystonia among adolescents residing in iodine-deficient regions. Microcirculatory dystonia, characterized by dysregulation of blood flow in the microvasculature, can significantly impact the physiological and psychological health of adolescents. Given the critical role of iodine and other microelements in metabolic processes, the deficiency of these nutrients may exacerbate symptoms of microcirculatory dystonia. This research aims to elucidate the interrelations between these factors, contributing to enhanced understanding and management strategies for affected individuals. The results indicate a significant correlation between microelement deficiencies and the severity of dystonia symptoms, highlighting the need for targeted nutritional interventions in this population.
