top ten healthy overdraft industries
The social investigation activity of “ten major industries of health overdraft” jointly initiated by the professional committee of physician health management and physician health insurance of the Chinese Medical Association, the professional committee of treatment technology application management of the Chinese Hospital Management Association, and the Beijing Tzu Chi Health Examination chain ended recently. The results show that the health overdraft of IT industry and enterprise executives is the most serious, with sub-health proportions of 91% and 86% respectively. Among them, the IT industry is prone to diseases such as spondylosis, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, fatty liver and eye diseases; Senior executives of enterprises are prone to obesity, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia. Excessive mental pressure, fast pace of life, irregular diet and life are the main reasons for serious overdraft of health.
Media reporters, securities, insurance, taxi drivers, traffic police, sales, lawyers and teachers ranked third to tenth in the health overdraft list.
China’s STD epidemic is growing rapidly
The disease prevention and Control Department of the Ministry of Health recently reported the relevant monitoring data of the domestic sexually transmitted disease epidemic situation. It shows that in the past 20 years, China’s sexually transmitted diseases have continued to grow rapidly, with an average annual growth rate of 29.64%, of which syphilis, genital herpes and nongonococcal urethritis have increased particularly in recent years. In 2005, 180300 cases of gonorrhea and 126400 cases of syphilis were reported nationwide, ranking fourth and fifth in the number of reported class A and class B legal infectious diseases. Among them, the incidence rate of syphilis increased by 35.79% compared with 2004. Chlamydia trachomatis infection, condyloma acuminatum and genital herpes have become common sexually transmitted diseases in China. To this end, the Department of disease prevention and control of the Ministry of Health decided to increase the monitoring of three venereal diseases, namely Chlamydia trachomatis infection, condyloma acuminatum and genital herpes, on the basis of the national statutory reports of gonorrhea and syphilis.
children of highly educated mothers are more shy
At the recent National Training Conference on “comprehensive intervention of reproductive health services for unmarried pregnant adolescents”, the survey results of adolescent reproductive health in Beijing, Jinan, Guangzhou and Wuhan were reported: the higher the mother’s education, the more shy the child is, and the mother’s marital status also has an impact on the child.
A total of 5019 teenagers were surveyed, of which 47.1% were unwilling to seek services and guidance. The survey found that whether adolescents are willing to see doctors when they have reproductive health problems is related to the educational level of their mothers. The willingness of their children to see a doctor was 59.1% and 54.5% respectively for those whose mothers had primary school education and primary school education; Only 49.1% of the mothers with college education or above were willing to see a doctor. According to expert analysis, highly educated mothers are generally more face saving, which leads to children over protecting their privacy, thus affecting reproductive health.
The survey also found that parents’ marital status also had an impact on their children’s desire to see a doctor. The willingness of children to see a doctor was 53.6% and 52.4% respectively for those whose parents were married or widowed. When parents remarried or separated, only 37.5% and 38.7% of their children were willing to see a doctor.
women who have excessive sex are prone to nephritis
According to the recent American annals of internal medicine, frequent sex may cause kidney infection in women. In the past, people did not know much about the reasons why women were prone to kidney infection. Dr. Soros of a health research center in Seattle, the United States, solved this problem through research. The research team selected 240 patients with kidney infection and 500 healthy young women for a questionnaire survey. The survey shows that people who have sex more than three times a week are more likely to develop kidney infection. Generally speaking, up to 4-5 times a week, or having sex for too long each time, are considered “excessive”. Excessive sexual life causes bacteria to invade the urethra and even go up to the bladder, leading to urinary tract infection in most women. In addition, other sexual habits, such as changing sexual partners frequently and using spermicidal contraceptives, are also prone to urinary tract infection. If treatment is delayed, it is likely to lead to nephritis.
drinking juice after sex can prevent urinary tract infection
Finnish researchers found that if women drink at least one cup of fresh fruit juice or concentrated fruit juice without sweeteners every day, their probability of urinary tract infection is 34% less than that of women who seldom drink fruit juice. If you can drink a cup immediately after sex, the effect of preventing urinary tract infection will be more significant. The researchers explained that squeezing during sexual intercourse can easily injure women’s urethra and bring bacteria around the urethra or in the front of the urethra into the bladder. If sex is too frequent, it will also reduce the bladder resistance and significantly increase the probability of infection with bacteria. Juice drinks with strong acidity can reduce the number of bacteria in the urethra, so the incidence of urinary tract infection can be greatly reduced. Studies have also found that some particularly sour juices, especially those made from berries, have a good effect on preventing the recurrent urinary tract infections in women. In addition, drinking yogurt after sex and eating dairy products containing lactic acid bacteria at least five times a week can also help women avoid urinary tract infections.
cosmetic skin patients increased tenfold in three years
At present, the main problems of cosmetics in the market are metal exceeding the standard and bacteria exceeding the standard. For example, many whitening cosmetics contain mercury, and the whitening effect of cosmetics containing mercury is very obvious, and the skin is white and tender after use; Some cosmetics contain selenium, which can prevent skin aging. However, these chemical ingredients of cosmetics have the function of absorbing light. If they are used beyond the standard, it is easy to cause black spots on the skin. If the bacteria in some cosmetics exceed the standard, it will cause skin infection on the face, such as boils or hair follicle inflammation. Among the freckle and whitening products, some found that the detection amount of hydroquinone, a banned raw material, seriously exceeded the standard. Hydroquinone has certain toxicity, and too much human contact can easily cause leukemia and heart disease.
Wang Fei, director of the dermatology department and medical doctor of the affiliated Zhongda Hospital of Southeast University, told the reporter that the outpatient department of the Department has to accept 5-10 cosmetic dermatology patients every day. There are two main types of skin diseases caused by cosmetics: one is the irritating reaction caused by the use of inferior cosmetics, and the patient’s skin appears erythema, edema, peeling and desquamation; the other is the allergic reaction caused by the improper use of cosmetics, and the patient’s skin appears small erythema and feels itchy. After stopping the use of cosmetics, it can be alleviated and improved by itself, and a few people leave yellowish brown pigmentation.
Experts remind that in order to prevent the occurrence of cosmetic dermatosis, a skin patch test or a small amount of original cosmetic should be applied to the skin behind the ear and the inner side of the forearm before the first use of the new variety. After 48-72 hours of observation, it can be used only when there is no itching and erythema. When choosing cosmetics, we must pay attention to the principle of “applicability”, and should not blindly seek expensive and good.
harmful bacteria in keyboard are 400 times higher than that in public toilet
The infection management department of Beijing You’an Hospital recently monitored the contamination of the keyboards and mice of 20 office computers in a unit. It was found that there were biscuit grounds, coffee powder, hair and other sundries hidden in the cracks of the public computer keyboards. Doctors cultured these sundries and isolated Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Pasteurella haemolyticus and fungi from them. Previously, the relevant departments had sampled the computer keyboards of Internet cafes and found that 35% of them had hepatitis B virus. American scholars have found that harmful bacteria on computer keyboards and mice are 400 times higher than those in public toilets.
Professor Li Suying, an infection expert of You’an Hospital, reminded computer users that Staphylococcus aureus can cause skin infectious diseases such as purulent rash, and Escherichia coli contaminated hands can cause gastrointestinal diseases such as diarrhea through meals. Therefore, users must wash their hands before and after using the computer, do not eat when operating the computer, and try to avoid contact between hands and eyes, ears, nose and mouth: it is better not to use computers used by infectious disease patients. Computer users should regularly clean the keyboard and mouse. When using public computers such as Internet cafes, they can first wipe the keyboard and mouse with disinfectant paper towels to avoid cross infection.
colonoscopy can effectively prevent colon cancer
According to a recent study by US researchers, patients with colon ulcers, if they undergo colonoscopy regularly, can significantly reduce their risk of colon cancer.
Inflammatory polyps and localized enteritis (also known as Crohn’s disease, which is characterized by chronic and long-term partial peptic ulcer) are common intestinal diseases. Studies have found that if such intestinal diseases are not treated in time, they are very likely to lead to colon cancer. However, for such patients, as long as they have colonoscopy regularly, they can be detected as soon as possible and treated in time. The researchers conducted a comparative experiment on 188 colon ulcers and 188 normal people. The results showed that the probability of colon cancer in subjects with inflammatory polyps was 2.5 times higher than that in the control group. However, regular colon examination and the use of drugs to control colitis can effectively reduce the risk of colon cancer.
blood test can detect lung cancer early.
Researchers at Kentucky State University in the United States recently developed a new method for early screening of lung cancer. This new method tests the immune response of the patient’s immune system to tumors by examining blood. The researchers said that this economic and convenient test method can be used before the patient has undergone X-ray or CT examination. Cancer can be detected as soon as possible.
At present, lung cancer has become one of the major killers of human health. It is estimated that nearly 10 million people suffer from lung cancer every year, of which non-small cell lung cancer accounts for a large proportion, and its five-year survival rate is only 40%. Nearly 160000 people die of lung cancer every year in the United States. At present, the common methods for detecting lung cancer are X-ray or CT, but both of them have a high false detection rate. In order to make a diagnosis, people have to carry out biopsy. When patients have lung cancer symptoms, they often miss the best treatment period.
The researchers wrote in the recently published journal of chest oncology that this new method is to try to find some proteins in the blood that can produce immune responses to early lung tumors. Through blood testing, the detection time of lung cancer will be greatly advanced. Experiments show that the accuracy of the new method for detecting lung cancer is as high as 90%. If this method is confirmed, it will be the first method to screen for cancer through blood testing after PSA (prostate special antigen) examination.
