Xiamen Daily News (Reporter Liu Rong) On a dog day, at night, he and his friends eat a big stall and have a beer, which is cool and pleasant. However, you should be careful when choosing a summer diet. Because of this weather, it is the time when hepatitis A and hepatitis E can easily become "raging."
The 47-year-old Ms. Wu (a pseudonym) returned home from India two months ago. Half a month after returning home, she developed liver pain, yellow eyes, and decreased appetite. When she visited the liver disease center of the Chinese Medical Hospital, the maximum transaminase value exceeded 12,000, and the normal value was generally only about 1,000. She was diagnosed with hepatitis A infection. The reason for this analysis was that Ms. Wu was infected with hepatitis A while eating unclean food while traveling in India.
Wu Jianhua, chief physician of the Liver Disease Center of Xiamen Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, introduced that Hepatitis A and Hepatitis E are viral hepatitis infections through the digestive tract and control of food hygiene is the most important prevention method. In recent years, the incidence of hepatitis E has ranked first in acute viral hepatitis in adults in China, with a mortality rate of 1% to 5%, which is much higher than that of hepatitis A. Pregnant women, especially during the second trimester of pregnancy, can easily cause stillbirths and postpartum hemorrhage. The mortality rate is as high as 20%-40%, which is much higher than that of other viral hepatitis. Travelers in epidemic areas, migrant workers in affected areas, foreign students, the elderly, women of childbearing age, patients with chronic liver disease, students, and those who often eat out are all at high risk of hepatitis E infection.
Wu Jianhua suggested that people should pay attention to food hygiene in summer travel, especially to travelers in East Asia and Southeast Asia, South Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America. Vaccination against hepatitis A and hepatitis E is needed. After eating unclean food, people have symptoms of fever, liver pain and other symptoms, must go to the hospital to do liver function examination in time to avoid illness.
