Hypertension in children

At 12, chubby Dun was suffering from "three high", and he had all the "old age diseases" such as hyperglycemia, hypertension and hyperlipidemia. Such a special "small disease" surprised experts, "such a big child is type 1 diabetes, that is, genetic factors, but this small fat pier is actually type 2, that is to say, excluding genetic factors, the culprit is obesity." Jiangsu Provincial People's hospital endocrine experts told reporters, before really did not meet such a patient.

[case] the child has adult diabetes hypertension

Daming (pseudonym) is 12 years old, 1 m 65, but the body has been a little different, weight has reached 90 kg, more than an adult, according to family, as long as walking a little faster, children can not breathe, in recent times the child's head is a little dizzy, to the hospital examination found that diabetes.

Professor Liu Chao of Jiangsu People's hospital told reporters: the children were transferred from other hospitals to the hospital for a second visit. It was found that the children had diabetes, but also hypertension and hyperlipidemia. It was a typical "three high" patient, and the child actually had type 2 diabetes, which was caused by obesity alone.

No one is alone. The affiliated middle hospital of Southeast University has also received a small medical number recently. The 15-year-old boy Mingming (pseudonym), weight has reached 70 kg, according to the children's family, children have been feeling dizziness and insomnia in recent years, occasionally headache, results to the school medical room a blood pressure, even 170/110, is a typical hypertension patient.

The harm of obesity is not only "three high". The people's Hospital of Jiangsu Province found that obesity leads to more and more patients who snore maliciously, and there are some patients with younger age. [status quo]

The detection rate of obese children increased 5 times in 10 years

The average rate of obesity children in China is increasing at an average rate of nearly 10% per year. The prevalence of obese children in cities such as Shanghai and Nanjing with rapid economic development has increased by about 5 times compared with that of 10 years ago. Experts from Nanjing Maternal and child health hospital told reporters that at present, the proportion of obese children in the country is 7.06%, while Nanjing has increased by 467.7% in the past ten years, and the incidence of obesity in the 6-7-year-old group has risen from 0.84% to 4.17%.

Another data shows that the prevalence of overweight and obesity among students in Jiangsu Province has reached 10%, the obesity rate of urban students is significantly higher than that of rural students, and the prevalence of overweight and obesity in Nanjing students is 19%. Experts in Provincial People's hospital told reporters that students pay more attention to eyesight in physical examination. Those with better conditions may also pay attention to the ears, nose and throat. Although they also weigh weight, they seldom give a reasonable suggestion and reminder. Even if they find that children are overweight, they do not point out the effect of overweight on children's health.

[effect] obesity also affects children's psychology and intelligence

Experts from Nanjing Children's Hospital said that obesity has physiological effects on children and adolescents, and has a great impact on psychology. The impression of "bloated, lazy, clumsy" caused by obesity is often regarded as clumsy, backward and ridiculed object, which makes obese children feel inferiority and mental pressure. Many children and adolescents obese students are not flexible in their movements and participate in collective activities, which makes their personality seem isolated. Some obese children and adolescents form "autism" who are unwilling to communicate with others, and their mental health level is declining, which has strong resistance to participate in collective activities or communicate with others.

In addition, the imbalance of amino acid metabolism in the food of obese children makes a large number of amino acids accumulate in brain cells, which affects the activity of brain cells. In the long run, intelligence will be behind the same age. Fat children have too much fat, oxygen consumption is 30% - 40% higher than that of normal people. Oxygen in the body "cannot be paid for", and often appear listless, easy to fatigue, sleepiness, and mental difficulty.

[reminder] the "face changing" of the students with low age disease

In recent years, the physical examination items of primary and secondary school students seem to have no change, mainly including examination of five official, color discrimination, vision, height, weight, blood pressure, internal medicine, blood test, chest permeability, vital capacity, etc. In recent years, with the changes of living conditions and living environment, diabetes, hypertension and other adult diseases have appeared the trend of low age. Experts suggest that students can increase their physical examination items when they are taking physical examinations, especially those with high incidence rate of teenagers. For example, children aged 1 to 3 need a medical examination once a year, and adolescents aged 3 to 18 should have a physical examination every year. In addition to physical examination and physical test, the routine physical examination of teenagers should also be regularly checked for blood routine and urine routine. Children with dysplasia should be tested for trace elements, and children with obesity and chest depression should be examined for blood lipid and blood glucose.
