〔健康頻道/綜合報導〕嬰幼兒若有任何不適,家長肯定焦急不已。小兒科醫師林哲民在臉書粉專「Dr. Jimmy 林哲民醫師」表示,造成嬰幼兒細支氣管炎的MVP大魔王,始終都是RSV 呼吸道融合病毒。

林哲民說明,大約有 2/3 的嬰兒在 1 歲前曾感染 RSV;到了 2 歲幾乎100%曾感染接觸經驗。

為什麼RSV最愛找上 1-2歲以下的寶寶?林哲民說明,這是因為寶寶在出生時有母體抗體保護,但抗體在出生後3-6 個月內會逐漸顯著下降。此時寶寶自身的免疫系統尚未發育成熟,形成防護空窗。

同時,醫學文獻指出,1 歲以下嬰兒因RSV 住院的機率,平均是流感(Influenza)的 16 倍。其中因 RSV 住院的幼兒裡,有高達一半的案例是發生在出生 3 個月內,且超過75% 發生在 6 個月以下。

別以為只有早產兒需要注意!林哲民表示,雖然早產兒屬於高風險族群,但台灣超過9成的RSV住院個案其實是足月出生、原本健康的寶寶。近年已有RSV「長效型單株抗體」出現,施打後即打即有抗體保護力,且效果持續一年。從剛出生的嬰幼兒至兩歲之內,皆可以經由專業醫師評估後,考慮接種長效型單株抗體。

Study finds abnormal intestinal oxalate metabolism in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, related to immune response

A research team from the University of North Carolina found that the activity of the SLC26A2 and SLC26A3 protein genes responsible for oxalate transport in the intestines of patients with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis is low, which leads to the accumulation of oxalic acid in the intestines and may increase the inflammatory response. Experiments have shown that oxalic acid intake can aggravate intestinal inflammation and weight loss in mice, but research has not yet recommended that ordinary people avoid eating spinach and other oxalic acid-rich foods.
