Medical road ahead

"what?"

"Who is this person?"

Seeing Qiao Tan walk up to the rostrum, the audience below all showed expressions of surprise, and Qin Xiao was also a little surprised, but soon returned to normal, and simply waved to her, "Doctor Qiao, sit down and chat."

"Uh!"

Qiao Tan turned his head suddenly, only to realize that he was already standing in front of the stage, and everyone in the audience was looking at him curiously.

"Doctor Joe?"

Qin Xiao's call came again, Qiao Tan turned to look, and saw him pull out the chair beside him, motioning for her to go and take a seat.

"This"

At this moment, Qiao Tan was in a dilemma. She just came to attend the lecture and prepare materials for Liu Yaxiu. If she sat in, wouldn't she become one of the keynote speakers.

I'm still going to leave in embarrassment!

Just as she bowed her head and was about to leave the rostrum, she heard Qin Xiao say into the microphone again: "Please invite Dr. Qiao Tan from the Clinical Nutrition Department of the Affiliated Hospital of C University. She will explain to you about the nutritional treatment of chronic diseases later. Law."

clap clap-

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone on and off the stage applauded thunderously, even Liu Yaxiu behind the stage applauded non-stop, and nodded to Qiao Tan, showing encouragement with his eyes.

Ok!

Seeing this, Qiao Tan could only take a deep breath, moved his trembling legs, and continued walking.

"call"

After taking a seat beside Qin Xiao, she breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that her vest had already been wet with sweat.

Qin Xiao quietly handed her a pack of tissues from under the table, then cleared his throat, and continued his lecture, "Dr. Qiao raised the question very well just now, and it is also a question that many people care about."

"Are genetic diseases absolutely hereditary? Can it be suppressed through acquired efforts?"

"The answer is yes."

"Taking diabetes as an example, let's first talk about its types-type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. The former patients are younger than 30 years old, and the onset is sudden. , emaciation and other symptoms mainly, high blood sugar level, and many patients have ketoacidosis as the first symptom, low serum insulin and C-peptide levels, ICA, IAA or GAD antibody can be positive, oral medicine alone is ineffective, need to use Insulin therapy; the latter patients are common in middle-aged and elderly people. Among them, obese people have a higher incidence, often accompanied by hypertension, dyslipidemia, arteriosclerosis and other diseases, with insidious onset, no early symptoms, or only mild symptoms Fatigue, thirst, especially those with no obvious increase in blood sugar, need to do a glucose tolerance test to confirm the diagnosis."

"Whether it is type 1 or type 2, it is related to genetic factors and environmental factors, which is what I mentioned just now. Diabetes is usually caused by the joint induction of the two causes. Among them, eating too much, physical exertion Obesity caused by reduced activity is the most important environmental factor for type 2 diabetes, which makes individuals with genetic susceptibility to type 2 diabetes prone to onset; the environmental factor for type 1 diabetes is that patients with an abnormal immune system will respond to certain viruses such as Coxsackie virus, rubella virus, mumps virus and other infections lead to autoimmune reactions, destroy insulin β cells, and develop diabetes."

"So, even if you are born with genetic factors for diabetes, it can only be avoided with acquired prevention and protection."

"Then how can we prevent it? It's not like having a cold and fever, just wear more clothes when it's cold." Someone in the audience asked.

"Before talking about how to prevent, let me tell you how to predict."

Qin Xiao nodded slightly to the questioner, and then continued, "The clinical manifestations of diabetes can be divided into two types: one is polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia, and weight loss. More and less' symptoms, which are more common in type 1 diabetes; the second is fatigue and obesity, which are more common in type 2 diabetes. Before the onset, patients will suddenly gain weight, and if they do not seek medical treatment in time, their weight will gradually drop."

"When you find yourself, or your relatives and friends have the above two abnormalities, you must go to the hospital for examination, early diagnosis and early treatment, if it is just a false alarm, you must further find out the cause of the abnormality in the body. You know, the human body It’s a one-shot that affects the overall situation, and it won’t suddenly become fat or lose weight for no reason.”

Hearing this, Qiao Tan subconsciously turned his head to look at him.

I seem to have said something similar
Ok?
Feeling that Qiao Tan was staring at him, Qin Xiao also looked sideways at her.

However, in just a blink of an eye, he turned to the audience again, and continued: "Since diabetes is determined by both genetics and acquired, if you want to prevent it, you need regular physical examinations, especially type 2 diabetes, because its early symptoms are not obvious. In addition, a healthy lifestyle, such as no smoking, fasting too much fat, avoiding excessive intake of irritants and salt, controlling alcohol consumption, eating more vegetables and fruits, and carrying out appropriate physical exercise, Both are the best way to prevent diabetes, and other chronic diseases."

"Between. Keke"

Speaking of this, Qin Xiao suddenly coughed, and Qiao Tan who was beside him hurriedly picked up the spare mineral water on the table, unscrewed the cork two or three times, and quickly and carefully poured the water into his teacup.

"Thank you."

Qin Xiao thanked him with a smile, picked up the teacup and drank a couple of sips, and immediately felt that his throat was comfortable, and his mood was also refreshed, and he spoke with a full of air, "Because most of the elderly friends present here, then I will introduce some elderly friends to you. Prevention and maintenance of chronic diseases that people often suffer from.”

"First of all, the elderly are most likely to suffer from high blood pressure. To prevent high blood pressure, the usual diet should be low-salt, low-fat, low-cholesterol, and light. Among them, it is best not to eat high-cholesterol foods such as animal offal and hairtail. Eat, and then maintain a good attitude, insist on jogging, Tai Chi and other appropriate physical exercises."

"The second is cervical spondylosis. Now the patients of this disease are getting younger and younger. After all, it is still inseparable from living habits. To prevent it, remember to keep warm, exercise moderately, and get rid of bad sitting posture, especially those who play with their heads down. Habits need to be corrected.”

"When it comes to cervical spondylosis, you must mention frozen shoulder. In addition to keeping warm, if possible, you can do some climbing exercises, or try the hand-holding exercise after the body. There is also a herniated lumbar disc, and you should also pay attention to keeping warm , do not engage in gravity work, do not do physical exercises blindly, only do pull-ups or high-leg exercises appropriately, do not sit on low chairs, and do not bend over for a long time."

"There is also a common chronic disease called tennis elbow, which refers to the aseptic inflammation of the epicondyle of the humerus caused by continuous repeated force or improper force on the arm. The symptoms are mainly pain on the outside of the elbow joint, which radiates to the outside of the forearm Pain, aggravated pain when clenching fist, twisting towel, forearm rotation, weakness in holding objects as the main manifestation, when the symptoms worsened, pain and weakness even when carrying a glass of water."

As he spoke, Qin Xiao flexed his elbows to demonstrate, "Same as the previous cases, keep warm, rest, and don't carry heavy objects weighing more than one catty for a long time. The effect of taking medicine, injections and plasters for this disease is not good. , Infrared therapy can be used to reduce inflammation, promote blood circulation and relieve pain. Teachers, porters, cooks, fitters, drivers, tennis and badminton players have a relatively high chance of suffering from this disease."

"The above chronic diseases are not considered diseases for many people, at most they are just minor ailments on the body, but if you don't pay attention to them, over time, minor ailments will kill you."

After Qin Xiao concluded, he turned his head and raised his hand to Qiao Tan, "Next, I would like to invite Dr. Qiao to tell you more about the nutrition therapy for chronic diseases."

"what?"

Qiao Tan, who was listening vigorously, couldn't react in time, and was stunned on the spot.
