The Dangers of Staying Up Late

Recent discoveries about cancer of the liver. Do not spend the night! Doctors at the National Hospital of Taiwan has recently shocked the world of medicine for the discovery of the case of a young doctor who, during his 37 years is very confident the results of liver function tests (SGOT, SGPT), but it turns out that when holidays leading Chinese New Year are known to be suffering from liver cancer positive as long as 10 cm.

In this world depends a lot about the results of liver function index (index of liver function) .. They assume, when the normal examination of the index of the average results of all OK. This kind of misunderstanding was also made by many medical specialists, really shocking, doctors are expected to provide the knowledge of the general public, apparently aware that is not true.

"The prevention of liver cancer should be done the right way. There is no other way except to detect and treat them as soon as possible, "said Chin Chuan Dr.Hsu.

But ironically, it turns out that doctors who deal with liver cancer may also have wrong views, or misleading the public, so the leading cause of liver cancer is difficult to cure.

Currently, there are patients who complain that doctors in the last month Hsu often experience abdominal pain and weight loss a lot. After the review of new Supersound discovered the existence of a large liver cancer, nearly 80% of his liver (the liver) was eaten.

Patients were very surprised, "How is this possible? Last year, just do medical examinations and the results were all normal. How is possible that in a relatively short liver cancer 1 year can grow so big? "

It turned out that the check-up is done just to check liver function. The test results also showed "normal." Examination of liver function tests is one of the most minute elements known to the public. But this is also the most misunderstood by our society (Taiwan Country because the author is domiciled there, but which one of the world community to understand)

Generally, people think that when the results of the index of liver function showed normal numbers means there is no problem with the heart. But this view has led to the emergence of sad stories because of missed opportunities to detect cancer from the point of beginning.

Dr. Hsu said, "SGOT and SGPT is an enzyme that is most prevalent in liver cells. If there is an inflammation of the liver or because of other reasons for liver cells die, SGOT SGPT and exhausted. This causes the uterus and SGOT SGPT in the blood increases.
But not an increase in SGOT SGPT and numbers does not mean that hardening of the liver or absence of liver cancer. For many people with liver inflammation, although the inflammatory condition of the heart had stopped, but in the liver (liver), they formed fibers and hardening of the liver. With the formation of hardening of the heart, then it would be easier to liver cancer occurs. "


n addition, an early stage liver cancer, liver index will not increase. Because in times of cancer growth, only the cells surrounding the attack so damaged and die. Because of this damage is only a small scale of SGOT and SGPT numbers can still be within normal limits, say too high will not increase. But because many people do not understand this so that the result there were many sad stories.
