Virus Possibly
Cause of Goiter,
Doctor Declares
Atlantic City, KJ.-(Science
Service)-Gofter maybe caused
by a virus instead of a lack of
iodine.
The incidence of goiter
throughout the world rises and
falls In some specific areas
and acts like a virus-caused
disease, Dr. Isidor Greenwald
of New York University (Col
lege of Medicine ) told the
American Medical Association
meeting here.
In Switzerland, for in
stance, the number of goiter
cases has dropped the past
200 years, he said. However,
there are a great many cases
of cretinism in Switzerland.
This disease is characterized
by stunted growth and mental
retardation. Cretinism is
known to be caused by goiter,
Dr. Greenwald said. Many
Swiss babies have goiter when
born, he pointed put.
Fewer in U. S.
In the United States, there
are fewer goiter cases than in
Switzerland. Yet Americans
do have a relatively high rate
of hyperthyroidism, overactive
thyroid glands. This disease is
also linked with goiter.
The Japanese supposedly
eat many sea foods and there
by receive enough iodine in
their diets, yet they have a
high rate of goiter, and hyper
thyroidism. Contrary to the
Swiss, who also have a high
goiter rate, the Japanese do
not have the problem of creti
nism. Because goiter can produce
different-diseases in two coun
tries cretinism in Switzer
land and hyperthyroidism in
Japan it is possible that goi
ter is caused by a virus, he as
serted.
Outbreak Recalled
i)r. ureenwaid recalled a
serious outbreak of goiter in
livestock in the states of Wash,
ing and Montana in 1915. The
animals were fed iodized salt
and their goiters disappeared.
Dr. Greenwald said the out
break resembled a virus-
caused communicable disease,
A lack of iodine should not
produce such different effect
in different countries, or in
the same country at different
times, as has been observed in
Italy, he said. But a virus in
fection might act this way, he
concluded.
Brides, Grooms
Said Youngest in
Nation's History
Washington-(Science Serv-ice-Today's
brides and
grooms are younger than any
other in the nation's history,
the Population Reference Bu
reau here reported.
The average age for first
marriages in the U.S. last year
was 23 for men and 20 for
women. More girls married at
18 than at any other age.
In 1890, men averaged 26
at first marriage and women
averaged 22. Since then, the
average age has been declin
ing slowly but steadily. .
Idahoans Youngest
Lasst year about 45 per cent
of women marrying for the
first time and slightly more
than 13 per cent of first-time
grooms were less than 20
years of age, the Bureau re
ported. Idaho's newly married
couples were the youngest,
with brides averaging 19 and
grooms 22. Connecticut's were
oldest, 22 and 24.6 respec
tively. The Bureau offered no rea
son for the trend toward
early marriages.
Factors believed to contrib
ute, however, are the nation's
continued economic prosper
ity, the G. I. Bill of Rights fi
nancial aid to college stu
dents, making it more possible
for them to marry while still
in school, teen-agers "going
steady" at progressively
younger ages, and a signifi
cant percentage of pre-marital
pregnancies in young girls.
Many Remarriages
The Bureau also reported
that about one-fourth of last
year's marriages in the U.S.
were remarriages. One of
to
(A
every 20 divorced women that
remarried was a teen-ager. Di
vorced men remarried on the
average, at 36 and divorced
women at 31.
Last year's marriages, the
Bureau said, were the fewest
since 1939. This was attrib
uted primarily to the 1958
business recession, although
the low birth rates in the
1930s and the high birth rates
since 1945 were given as sec
ondary reasons.
