台東縣肺功能檢查成果發表:數據現隱憂與「健康存活者效應」

台東縣政府舉行肺功能檢查成果發表會,揭露篩檢數據背後的謎團與職業族群肺部健康狀況。

Quick Look

台東縣政府舉辦肺功能檢查成果發表會,公佈針對職業族群與民眾的篩檢數據。由於參與者多為年長且健康的女性,年輕人異常比例反而較高,醫師推測可能出現「健康存活者效應」,並強調持續篩檢高危險族群的重要性。

Why It Matters

台東縣政府自113年起連續3年申請國家衛生研究院補助,針對特定職業族群進行肺部健康篩檢。

〔記者劉人瑋/台東報導〕台東縣政府今(14)日舉行「台東縣肺功能檢查成果發表會」,只是願意配合參加檢測的多是年長又健康的女性,還多以文健站為最,抽煙者僅佔11%,光是吹氣檢測就刷下數百人、無法參與,因此測得數據中,年輕人反而過半肺部有問題,70歲以上佔28到19%,因此被懷疑為「健康存活者效應」,另一方面更突顯台東更需積極檢測並增加篩檢。

縣長饒慶鈴指出,肺部健康易被忽略,初期出現變化時,未必有明顯症狀。發表會由東馬胸腔內科主任吳信宏分享篩檢數據及案例分析,醫療團隊進行個案分享,呈現早期篩檢帶來的實際效益。

社會處說明,113年起連續3年申請國家衛生研究院補助,針對中華紙漿公司員工、義消、消防人員、工地工作人員、警察及勞工等職業族群進行篩檢,完成795人檢查,其中160人經醫師判讀後建議進一步接受健康檢查,相當於每5位受檢者就有1位需要進一步關注肺部健康,114年持續擴大服務對象及篩檢場域,完成1,729人檢測,人數增加不少。

但問題是,就國際期刊可知世上女性有慢性肺阻塞者比例增加,但在台東的報告卻多是女性參與且多年長、結果還十分良好,原來參與者有65%是女性,而其中有吸菸史只佔11%,吳信宏說,「看到這11%,我都懷疑台東是不是吸菸人口那麼少」,而且90歲長者肺部肌力明顯不比年輕人,異常組才19.41%,遠低於30歲組的55.56%。在報告中被稱為「數據謎團」。

會有「謎團」卻是人性。吳信宏推測應是身體夠好的才願意出來參與篩選,懷疑自己健康有異的年輕人也參加,再者,曾有患者說「這半年沒抽菸」,再細問才知道原來這半年都住院、無法抽,先前已大概抽了幾十年、傷害累積許久。再者,其實接受篩檢者本有2500餘人,其中僅1729人能順利對著儀器吹出6秒且氣流夠強,儀器檢測標準已刷下一票人。

但吳信宏也說,檢測也發現如空軍基地地勤人員、紙廠員工等也明顯發現肺部受影響高於他人,但目前未有詳細比較數據,而吹氣檢測共含3項,在其中也發現25%民眾肺功能不佳,更有6%肺部異常、需立即治療個案,這是檢測最積極的用意與功能。

吳信宏表示,期待下次是全台東人踴躍參與,「希望見到的是工地工人等高危險族群能參加」。只是目前3年計畫已結束,是否能再有中央支援檢測仍需視國衛院與縣府。

Open Questions

  • ?中央未來是否會繼續提供經費支援肺檢計畫?
  • ?如何提升高危險群如工地工人的實際參與率?

Eating grapefruit could kill you! Kidney patient was taken to the emergency room after taking 2 pills

A patient with stage 4 chronic kidney disease almost died after eating two grapefruits at one go, resulting in hyperkalemia and a heartbeat that plummeted to 40 beats per minute. Doctors warn that patients with kidney disease should avoid eating grapefruit because it is rich in potassium ions and contains furanocoumarins, which can affect drug metabolism.

COVID-19 spreads in communities, experts urge to seize the golden treatment period within 5 days

The COVID-19 epidemic continues to spread in the community, with COVID-19 accounting for 32.4% of the detection rate of respiratory pathogens in the past four weeks. Infection experts call on high-risk groups to seize the golden treatment period within 5 days of the onset of symptoms and implement "screen, don't guess, and seek medical treatment, don't wait" to reduce the risk of severe illness and death.
