台股受到美股暴跌衝擊開盤重挫,引發民眾極端情緒波動與健康疑慮。
〔健康頻道/綜合報導〕台股受到美股暴跌衝擊,今(6)日開盤重挫,失守4萬點大關;不少人已經自嘲「該去睡公園」了。國軍桃園總醫院新竹分院心血管中心主任曾國翔在臉書粉專「心臟Worker 曾國翔醫師」表示,假設有個病患主訴是:「我剛剛看完未實現損益,突然覺得胸口像被大石頭壓住、喘不過氣、甚至冒冷汗,我是不是心肌梗塞了?」
曾國翔表示,這可能不是單純的緊張或恐慌症,在心臟科的眼裡,極度的情緒起伏(無論是暴賺的狂喜,還是暴跌的極度恐懼),會引發體內的『交感神經風暴』!這場風暴會讓您的心臟短暫當機,引發一種名為「章魚壺心肌症」(Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy)的真實急症!它的症狀和心電圖,跟致命的急性心肌梗塞幾乎一模一樣。
為什麼看股票會看到心臟罷工?曾國翔表示,「章魚壺心肌症」常被稱呼為「心碎症候群」。曾國翔說明,看到股票跌停,大腦會瞬間產生極度的恐慌;這時,腎上腺會大量釋放「兒茶酚胺」(Catecholamines,即腎上腺素等壓力荷爾蒙)。超高濃度的壓力荷爾蒙,對心臟肌肉是有毒性的!它會引發冠狀動脈強烈痙攣收縮,導致左心室的底部瞬間「癱瘓不收縮」,整個心臟像吹氣球一樣膨脹成古時候日本人用來抓章魚的工具「章魚壺」的形狀。
病人送來急診,心電圖和抽血指數跟心肌梗塞完全一樣!直到我們緊急做了心導管,才發現:「咦?血管明明沒有塞住啊!」原來是心臟被情緒「嚇到罷工」了。雖然多數人在幾週後會恢復,但急性期依然有引發致命心衰竭的風險!
若是身心科醫師,看到的可能是自律神經的全面失控。如果只是「恐慌症發作」,那是大腦的假警報,心臟其實沒事;但如果是上述的「心碎症候群」,那是心臟真的受傷了!股民的心態都是「大漲時怕沒上車,大跌時怕變壁紙」;這種長期的慢性焦慮,會讓您的交感神經24小時緊繃,導致嚴重失眠、胃食道逆流,最終成為引爆心血管疾病的完美導火線。
曾國翔建議:如果下跌狀況發生,就導致你心跳加速、整晚睡不著;這表示:「你的投資部位,已經遠遠超過風險承受度!」這時需嚴格執行「資產配置」。用閒錢投資、設定好停損停利點。「睡得著的投資,才是好投資!」
曾國翔提出3項建議:
1. 看盤前,先喝一杯溫開水: 溫水經過食道時,能微微刺激「副交感神經(迷走神經)」,這能像煞車一樣,稍微壓制交感神經風暴。
2. 啟動「4-4-4-4 盒式呼吸法」: 看到綠油油的面板時,請先放下手機。吸氣 4 秒、憋氣 4 秒、吐氣 4 秒、再憋氣 4 秒;有望在一分鐘內強制降低您的心率。
3. 善用智慧單,遠離螢幕: 設好自動停損停利點,之後關閉手機,去運動、去散步。不看就不會有壓力荷爾蒙。

Since November 3, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has required all international passengers and crew members entering the United States to sign a statement confirming that they have not traveled to or passed through the Democratic Republic of the Congo in the past 21 days to prevent the introduction of the Ebola virus into the United States. Those who do not sign will not be allowed to board the aircraft. No relevant cases have been reported in the United States so far.

Statistics from the Ministry of Health and Welfare show that my country's standardized death rate from lung cancer in 2012 was 21.6 per 100,000 people, a 16.9% decrease from 100 years ago. However, lung cancer still accounted for one-fifth of all cancer deaths in 2012. Xu Peisong, chief physician of the Department of Chest Medicine at Shin Kong Hospital, emphasized that there is almost no discomfort in the early stages of lung cancer. It is recommended that high-risk groups undergo early screening through low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) and improve their living habits to reduce the risk of the disease.
