CFT: central foveal thickness. Normal values for CFT with the same instrumentation are 167 ± 5 μm (mean ± sem) based on 22 volunteers (aged 25–56 years).30
By PROC MIXED of SAS with the eye as the unit of analysis. See Methods for additional details.
UIC: urinary iodine concentration. The geometric mean values for these three ranges were 68 μg/L, 139 μg/L, and 263 μg/L, respectively.
