Xinhua News Agency, Chengdu, July 25th.

Xinhua News Agency "Xinhua View Point" reporter Dong Xiaohong

The 14 -year -old Tongtong is still in junior high school in Chengdu, but recently he has a "little sugar man". "Children usually like to eat meat and look fat. I didn't expect to be so small with diabetes." Tong Tong's mother, Ms. Li, took the child to check in the hospital and found that Tong Tong's body indicators showed that type 2 diabetes patients.

For a long time, diabetes, hypertension, and stroke of the stroke are considered "elderly diseases", and most of the sick groups are used as elderly patients. However, the "Xinhua View Point" reporter recently found that some young people aged 20, 30 or even teenage also suffered from "elderly diseases".

The increase in young patients with "elderly disease"

The reporter recently visited the relevant "elderly diseases" departments in many hospitals in Sichuan and found that many of them were young people. Several first -line doctors said that diabetes, hypertension, etc. have been regarded as "elderly diseases" in the past, and now diagnosis patients are getting younger and younger.

"There are more and more young 'sugar people' found in the clinic, and many young people have high blood sugar." Li Huaqi, deputy director of the Department of Endocrine Metabolic Diseases of the Third People's Hospital of Chengdu, told reporters that in recent years, the diabetes patients diagnosed by the department have been diagnosed with diabetes patients. With a trend of youth, many young people in their twenties or 30 years have also suffered from diabetes.

The 21 -year -old Xiao Chen worked in an Internet company in Chengdu. Recently, he always felt dizzy and weak. He thought that the work was not enough to rest enough. He was told that he was told that he was already a "sugar man". The blood glucose was seriously exceeding the standard and needed to take medicine immediately.

"I usually like to eat sweets and often drink milk tea. Sometimes I have several cups a day. I always feel that young body is good. I did not expect to have diabetes." Xiao Chen said.

The reporter's investigation found that, in addition to diabetes, the traditional "elderly disease" of high blood pressure and tradition of stroke also "stared" to young people. Many hospitals' clinical data show that in the past 30 years, hypertension, diabetes, cerebral infarction, myocardial infarction, etc. are usually considered to be "elderly disease" diseases, and the initial age has continued to decline.

In the "China Stroke Prevention Report (2020)" written by experts organized by experts organized by the State Health and Health Commission, from 2012 to 2016, the "National Stroke of High -Raspisites Screening and Intervention Projects" showed that The average age of the first disease of the patient is 60.9 to 63.4 years. Among the age of the first onset, the aged 40 to 64 years accounts for more than 66%. The report also pointed out that the average age of patients with stroke in developed countries is about 75 years old. Overall, the onset of stroke in my country has shown a trend of younger.

"Clinically, the number of young stroke patients in the age of 20 or 30 in recent years has increased. Among them, there are even many teenagers under 18 years old." Said Liu Hua, director of neurology at the Third People's Hospital of Chengdu.

The "Chinese Middle -aged and Middle -aged Cardiovascular Health White Paper" released by the National Cardiovascular and Cerebral Vascular Diseases shows that one of the 60s of patients and high -risk people in my country and high -risk people in China is "post -90s".

Zhang Zhen, director of the Department of Cardiovascular Department of the Third People's Hospital of Chengdu, said that he had seen patients who had had myocardial infarction in their 20s.

The cause of the triple reasons causes the "elderly disease" youthfulness

Why is the younger trend of "elderly illness" increasingly prominent?

——The "catalysis" of bad lifestyles.

Experts from Li Huaqi, Liu Hua, and Zhang Zhen told reporters that now, there are some bad living habits of young patients with fast work rhythm and stressful life pressure. For example, staying up late, sitting for a long time, eating takeaway, irregular meals, overeating, alcoholism and so on. In addition to the inheritance of susceptible genes, many young patients are diagnosed with "elderly diseases" due to these bad habits of the day after tomorrow.

In addition, some doctors told reporters that some young people were drinking and smoking, eating and drinking, but on the other side, they took medicine according to the "recipe" to accelerate the development of the disease.

——The awareness rate, low inspection rate, and low treatment rate.

Taking diabetes as an example, the national epidemic data shows that the current awareness rate of Chinese diabetic patients is about 30%. After diagnosis of diabetes, the treatment rate of patients is about 26%. The rate can reach only about 40%. There is still a lot of room for strengthening the management of diabetic patients.

The "China Middle -aged and Middle -aged Cardiovascular Health White Paper" released in 2019 pointed out that in recent years, the trend of youth in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in my country has been obvious, and 64.4%of people have not received medical treatment.

——The young people's nutrition and health awareness is weak.

The reporter's interview found that many teenagers like to buy various "junk foods". Some parents adopt a laissez -faire attitude and believe that it doesn't matter if you don't get sick. Several doctors said that this behavior will bury hidden dangers for children's health.

Strengthen early intervention management

To avoid more and more young people suffering from "old age", the whole society needs to work together. Experts call for the popularization of health and nutrition knowledge, enhance the awareness rate of "elderly diseases" among young people, and let more people understand and master the preventive measures of common "elderly diseases".

The "Healthy China 2030" Planning Outline pointed out that it is necessary to build a national medical science and technology innovation system and build clinical medical data demonstration centers such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular.Experts call for the clinical medical data demonstration center of cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, diabetes, and stroke of the heart, and stroke of the "elderly disease", and strengthen the management of health risk intervention at young people at the national level.Experts said that the risk prediction model can play an important role in the prevention of "elderly diseases" such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes, which can accelerate different intervention management plans for different risk people such as young people and elderly people.

The current integrated application of Internet medical platforms is conducive to strengthening the healthy management of "elderly diseases" such as diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Experts such as Zhang Zhen believe that the management of "elderly diseases" of diabetes, hypertension, and strokes is a long -term process of adjusting with the progress of the disease.With the interconnection of medical information and the integration of high -tech such as artificial intelligence, "Internet+Medical" is more in line with the habit of seeing a doctor for young patients.
