"Actually, I also have Parkinson's genes in my family. When I consume too much caffeine or don't get enough sleep, my thumb starts to shake a little. On April 15, Zhang Zetian publicly revealed his family medical history on social platforms.
Parkinson's disease is no longer "exclusive" to the elderly
According to statistics, there are about 4.5 million people with Parkinson's disease worldwide. Many people mistakenly believe that Parkinson's disease is "exclusive" to the elderly and has nothing to do with young people. However, the latest surveys show that Parkinson's disease is creeping in young people.
The exact cause of Parkinson's disease is still a mystery to the medical community, but the mainstream view is that the degenerative death of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra is the main cause. In addition, environmental pollution, infections, and exposure to drugs and chemicals can also trigger the disease.
5~10% of Parkinson's disease patients have a family history, and genetic factors are also one of the factors in the onset of Parkinson's disease, so patients with related genes, such as LRRK2 gene and family history, are more likely to get Parkinson's disease.
明明不抽烟，却在26岁患上肺癌
In addition to Zhang Zetian, the hot search topic #Qing3 player Jiang Zhihao's lung cancer# in early April also rushed to the hot search, causing widespread attention and heated discussions among netizens.
And in 2023, Jiang Zhihao, who is only 26 years old, announced on Weibo that he has entered the advanced stage of lung cancer and is dying. His beloved mother also died of lung cancer six years ago. In the long farewell article, Jiang Zhihao revealed his incomprehension and helplessness about fate.
At that time, a respiratory medicine expert pointed out that considering Jiang Zhihao's age, lifestyle habits, and his mother's medical history, his lung cancer was likely to be closely related to genetic factors. This has sparked public concern about genetic diseases and early screening.
Why are young people also starting to be targeted by cancer and complex and serious diseases?
Nowadays, young people stay up late and work overtime to cause overwork, and the body's resistance will become worse under the condition of exertion, and their immunity to cancer-causing factors will become weaker, which will increase the probability of developing lung cancer. In addition to this cause, genes are also important factors that contribute to the occurrence of diseases.
In addition to cancer, there are also more and more complex severe diseases and rare diseases. About 80% of rare diseases are genetic diseases caused by genetic defects, and whole-genome sequencing to find out the cause as soon as possible is a wise move to quickly obtain a solution and strive for more hope for life.
Experts from Hunan Women and Children's Hospital said that everyone's "life manual" is not exactly the same, and it is the supreme care for life to guide life according to their own exclusive "life gene".
Whole-body genetic physical examination, scientific life-saving and away from diseases
Genes are the materials that organisms transmit genetic information, which determine our gender, appearance, birth, old age, illness, death, etc. Genes are the "fortune tellers" of science, which can accurately predict the occurrence and development of diseases and aging, and provide the possibility for the real meaning of "curing diseases before they occur". Through a comprehensive physical examination of human genes, rare diseases and genetic diseases can be found out, and health risks can be fully predicted.
Comprehensive Whole-Body Genetic Physical Examination and Testing Items [Frame Up]
1. Tumor prevention and control
Predict the risk of cancer, and if there is a risk of cancer, it is necessary to do health management as soon as possible to prevent the occurrence of diseases.
2. Arrogance management
For genetically induced hypertension, hyperlipidemia and diabetes, genetic testing guides precise chronic disease management.
3. Guide reproductive health
On average, each person carries 3-4 recessive genetic diseases, and a full set of genetic tests can guide the birth of healthy babies.
4. Detect diseases in advance
Screening thousands of diseases at one time, early detection and early intervention, and checking whether there are potential hidden diseases.
5. Guide the safe use of drugs
Different people have genetic differences, and genetic testing can accurately guide personalized medicine.
