【台灣「癌症時鐘」快轉16秒,空汙致癌正威脅所有人-包括不抽菸的女性】
今年以來,全球肆虐的肺炎疫情成為大家關心的焦點,但台灣的「癌症時鐘」並沒有因此而稍停,在我們呼吸的日常中,潛藏著更需要注意的致命因子💣。
根據國民健康署今年六月公布最新(2017年)的癌症登記報告指出:
👉國內平均每4分42秒就有一人罹癌,比前一年(2016年)的4分58秒一口氣快轉了16秒!
值得注意的是,其中 #肺癌 已連續40年高居國人十大癌症死因的前2⃣名。
進一步細究國健署的數據,2017年罹患肺癌的人數多達1萬4282人,平均每天超過39人罹癌;其中,#女性罹患肺癌的人數比前一年增加了519人,遠超過男性的增加數。若從十大癌症標準化發生率來看,女性肺癌以及乳癌、大腸癌的發生率都呈現增長趨勢📈。
大家可能有這樣的印象:肺癌是老菸槍🚬才容易得,但其實有 #高達五成三的患者並不吸菸,究竟怎麼回事?近年有新聞報導與學術研究報告指出,#空汙 很可能是民眾致癌率飆高、且中南部倍增於北部的主要原因📌。
根據前台大校長、中研院楊泮池院士近日所發表的(Proteogenomics of Non-smoking Lung Cancer in East Asia Delineates Molecular Signatures of Pathogenesis and Progression)一文,研究人員在年齡較大的女性(>70歲)身上發現「#暴露於環境致癌物而引起的誘變是癌症早期階段的主要驅動因素」,同時對於蛋白質在化學致癌物的代謝與反應當中得出證據,顯示「減少空氣污染物和食品防腐劑中致癌物的暴露可能是改善與預防肺癌有效的策略」。
在另外一篇由台北醫學大學內科學系助理教授曾健華為第一作者的研究論文、刊登於國際期刊《胸腔腫瘤》(Journal of Thoracic Oncology)的(The Relationship Between Air Pollution and Lung Cancer in Nonsmokers in Taiwan)當中,其研究結論相當明確地表明:
「在台灣,超過50%的肺癌患者從未吸煙。PM 2.5水平的變化會影響肺腺癌的發生率和患者生存率。」(Conclusions:In Taiwan, greater than 50% of patients with LC had never smoked. PM 2.5 level changes can affect AdLC incidence and patient survival.)(註:肺腺癌是肺癌的其中一種。)
這些都讓我們相當憂心,持續惡化的空氣污染是否會直接造成更多民眾罹癌😨?小港醫院胸腔科主任陳煌麒就分析,從臨床治療與醫學研究都發現,「女性罹患肺癌的人數節節攀升,最大的主因是二手菸、廚房油煙、#空污,最後才是人口老化、生活作息與家族遺傳疾病史。」
雖然環保署曾就此回應表示,「近年已推動相關空氣污染源減量工作」、「近年高屏地區PM2.5空氣污染已獲得相當改善成效」,但顯然緩不濟急😔。
虹安認為,既然醫學研究已經有許多結論顯示空汙與民眾的致癌確實有正相關,政府應該加強、加速如何減少空氣污染的各項措施,並輔導產業轉型、加速淘汰高污染的重工業轉為低污染產業或製程,從源頭改善空污的形成,守護民眾的健康💪。

air pollution in taiwan news 在 陳宜民教授 Facebook 的最讚貼文
Taipei Times 今天的新聞詳細報導了宜民昨天在立法院修空汚法,政黨協商的發言。並在副標題説賴清德院長被他們同黨的委員,不分區第一名的吳琨裕委員誤導。
Pollution negotiations end in deadlock
QUARRELSOME CLIMATE:A KMT legislator said that Premier William Lai had been misled about the potential health risks posed by stationary sources of pollution.
Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) lawmakers voiced objections, with KMT Legislator Arthur Chen (陳宜民) saying that Premier William Lai (賴清德) had been misled and underestimates the potential health risks posed by stationary sources of air pollution.
Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) Legislator Wu Kuen-yu (吳焜裕) earlier this month during a question-and-answer session at the legislature with Lai showed him research published in 2000 by the journal Environmental Health Perspectives, which showed no difference in health risks caused by stationary or mobile sources of air pollution, Chen said.
More recent data published by the same journal in 2016, after leaded gasoline was banned, indicates that the likelihood of humans contracting ischemic heart disease from stationary sources of air pollution is five times that of mobile sources, with PM2.5 — airborne particulates measuring less than 2.5 micrometers, being the main culprit, Chen said, adding that the item in question should be removed from the draft amendment.
