腎臟科醫師江守山分享英國研究指出,2歲前生命最初1000天經歷糖分限制的族群,成年後罹患乳腺癌、攝護腺癌、肝癌等5種癌症風險較低,其中肝癌發生率大降69%,生物老化速度也減緩約2.2年。

英國在二戰後持續實施糖供應配給制至1953年9月結束,研究人員利用此歷史政策進行了世代健康追蹤。
腎臟科醫師江守山分享研究指出,2歲前吃進多少糖,影響可能一路延續到70年後的健康。腎臟科醫師江守山分享研究指出,出生後的前1000天是食物與口味偏好形成的重要階段。英國1項利用二戰後糖配給制度進行的研究發現,經歷較長時間糖分限制的族群,成年後罹患乳腺癌、攝護腺癌、肝癌、直腸癌的風險較低,肝癌甚至降低發生率約69%。此外,生物老化速度也減緩約2.2年。
江守山於臉書粉專發文表示,英國二戰後持續實施糖供應配給制,直到1953年9月才結束,之後人們開始大量攝取糖分,消費量幾乎翻了一番。這意味著,出生時間僅相隔幾個月的嬰兒,無論是在子宮內還是在幼兒早期,接觸到的糖分水平都存在顯著差異。
江守山說,研究使用1951年至1956年間出生於英國的6萬4000多人的資料。較早出生的人,在出生後的前1000天中,經歷了更多的糖配給時間,較晚出生的人,經歷的糖配給時間則逐漸減少。雖然1000天的時間相對較短,但此階段的飲食環境影響卻會持續一生;此外,食物和口味偏好也在此期間開始形成。為了追蹤癌症病例,研究團隊使用英國生物銀行的健康資料庫資料,追蹤參與者數十年,並記錄罹患癌症的參與者以及何時罹患癌症等資訊。
研究發現,在生命最初1000天內經歷較長時間糖分限制的人群,罹患乳腺癌、攝護腺癌、肝癌、直腸癌、肺癌等5種癌症的機率較低。其中,肝癌的降低最為顯著,發生率降低約69%;乳癌的降低幅度最小為36%,卻也十分可觀。值得注意的是,這些差異是在糖分限制結束後數十年才開始顯現。
此外,江守山說,研究發現,生命最初1000天內經歷更長時間糖分限制的人,其端粒更長。根據估計,這種差異相當於生物老化速度減緩了約2.2年。另還發現一種名為顆粒酶B的蛋白質水平較低,這種蛋白質會在免疫系統長期超負荷運轉時升高,這是細胞層面老化速度減緩的另一個標誌。
江守山表示,根據研究結果,或可表明生命早期較低的糖分攝取,可能與細胞層面老化速度減緩有關。

Liang Shengbin, a doctor at Xinzhuang Youyou Pediatric Clinic, said that the "almost closed" growth plate does not mean that it is completely impossible to grow taller, but the space is limited. He clarified three major misunderstandings about the sequence of growth plate closure, aging mechanism and drug treatment, and emphasized that growth assessment should be done as early as possible to avoid missing the golden period of treatment.

Indonesia's health ministry reports over 174,000 cases of acute respiratory infections linked to toxic haze from forest and land fires in Borneo, Sumatra, and Papua between August and September 21.

Grandpa Chen, who is 70 years old, often takes Japanese comprehensive cold medicine when he catches a cold. Chen Youchen, a pharmacist at Chi Mei Hospital, warned that NSAIDs may increase the burden on the kidneys. The hospital promotes electronic medical care in the early stage of end-stage renal disease and plans to introduce AI to ensure the safety of medication for patients with kidney disease.

Taiwan's medical groups and legislators held a public hearing in the Legislative Yuan, accusing the Ministry of Health and Welfare's "Inpatient Integrated Care Plan" of lacking clear nurse-to-patient ratios and hiring standards, which has increased the burden on the front line. The group demands that hospitals should directly hire caregivers and set a nurse-to-patient ratio of 1:4 and not cross wards.

A 25-year-old man had suffered from allergic rhinitis for a long time. After being diagnosed by Cai Jiansheng, an otolaryngologist at Kuok General Hospital, he underwent nasal septum shaping, inferior turbinate shaping and posterior nasal nerve laser cauterization at his own expense. He recovered well after the surgery and his allergic symptoms were effectively controlled.

Scholars and the Police Department pointed out at the seminar that the "zombie cartridge" etomidate is rampant, and the animal anesthetic "tiletamine" may become the next alternative drug. The Police Department stated that it has included the substance in Level 1 drug control in advance before it becomes widespread on a large scale to take precautions.
