儿童肾结石高发,奶粉之外的原因

21 September 2008 » In 走近白色巨塔 »

九月原本是美国的食品安全教育月,而对广大的中国人民来说,今年的9月,也上了一次食品安全教育课,课程主题是“三氯氰胺与肾结石”。
无量(因为SL的漏斗坏了)厂商为谋取利益作出如此丧心病狂之事,自然千夫所指;但若没有发生这起恶性事件,也许大家对儿童肾结石、对三氯氰胺就不会关注和了解。
事实上,越来越多的儿童患上肾结石——MedlinePlus的首页赫然登着这篇报道(时间是9月18日,不知这样的安排是有意还是无意)——告诉了我们一个需要迫切关注的问题。

“Proposed reasons include sedentary lifestyle, obesity increase, processed high-salt diets,” Nelson said. Some children get the stones, because birth defects in the urinary tract put them at risk for urinary obstruction. “Another subset of children is premature infants who form stones related to the medications they require,” he said.

可能的原因包括久坐的生活方式,肥胖儿的增加,高盐饮食。一些孩子患结石是由于尿道先天缺陷所致的尿道堵塞风险增高,另一部分则和早产用药有关。

About 90 percent of kidney stones pass through the urinary tract by themselves within about six weeks with medication, better diet and an increased intake of fluids. But, some need to be removed using procedures such as shock wave lithotripsy, in which high energy shock waves administered from outside the body break the stones into fragments.

在经过6周的药物治疗加上改进饮食、增加液体摄取等辅助措施后,90%的肾结石可通过尿道排出。但仍有一些“顽固分子”需用震荡波碎石术(从体外施加一种高能的震荡波以便把结石震碎)处理。

There’s not much that parents can specifically do to prevent kidney stones in their children, Nelson said. They can encourage their kids to follow an overall healthy lifestyle, which can help reduce the risk. “Eat a balanced diet,” he said. “Drink lots of non-caffeinated liquids. Get exercise.”

家长们能做的是鼓励孩子建立健康的生活方式,平衡饮食,少喝含咖啡因的饮料,加强锻炼,从而减少患病风险。
食品安全路漫漫,绝不仅仅是搞好质量监控体系(但这是首要任务)就完事的,个人食品安全意识的养成,对食品安全知识的了解,也需要走过一段漫长的旅程。

    早晨掀开黑心绵的被子起床,用致癌牙膏刷完牙,喝杯过了期的碘超标还被三聚氰胺污染了的牛奶,吃根柴油炸的洗衣粉油条,外加一个苏丹红咸蛋,中午用地沟油炒盘避孕药喂的黄膳,再加一盘敌敌畏喷过的白菜,晚上喝上两杯甲醇白酒,再整两瓶甲醛啤酒漱口,来份苏丹红鸡翅······
    中国怎么了???
    加个友链啦
