Why are more and more children being "targeted" by leukemia? Reminder: These 4 things are the "culprits"!

In recent years, more and more children have lost their health and even their lives to leukemia.

In a study, we found that in recent years, the prevalence of leukemia in children shows a small upward trend every year, especially for children aged 2-6, leukemia has become a big killer of their health.

Why is leukemia easier to find children?

1. Exposure to toxic substances

It can be found from scientific research that benzene and its derivatives are the main culprits of leukemia.

Because benzene has the characteristics of fat solubility, it is very easy to volatilize. When it comes into contact with the skin, it will be inhaled into the human body and reach the bone marrow through blood circulation, thus causing harm. For some people with weak constitution, if they are exposed to benzene for a long time, their hematopoietic stem cell genes will mutate, which will lead to leukemia.

2. Radiation

When discussing the relationship between radiation and leukemia, we must first determine the dose of radiation in the end. When the body is affected by a large dose of radiation, leukemia is very easy to occur.

In a scientific statistic, it was found that the incidence rate of leukemia in severe radiation areas was 10 times that of other regions.

3. Specific virus

From the current medical development process, many studies have proved that retrovirus of RNA virus is very easy to cause human T-lymphoblastic leukemia, and scientists have clearly pointed out that the pathogenicity of this virus is very high.

If you want to keep your children away from leukemia, you must not let them touch the above incentives, especially at home, you must throw away the following four things!

1. Inferior stationery

Some inferior stationery is easy to imitate the big brand stationery. Although it seems that the difference between the two is not big, if parents are greedy to buy these stationery for their children, it is likely to pose a serious threat to their children's health.

Especially some inferior pencils and crayons, children always like to unconsciously nibble, which is very easy to lead poisoning, and show dyspepsia and anorexia and other symptoms. There are also some poor quality correction fluid, which contains toxic substance benzene, which is also an important factor in inducing leukemia.

2. Unqualified toys

Usually, when taking children out, it's better not to buy some unqualified toys from roadside stalls.

Although these toys are not very different from other toys, manufacturers often use inferior old plastics for renovation in order to control costs. If children come into contact with these toys for a long time, it is very easy to induce leukemia.

3. New furniture

People who have known about interior decoration all know that some materials containing formaldehyde are used in the production process of various kinds of furniture, and formaldehyde is one of the important elements causing enterprise diseases. Therefore, if the new wardrobe, cabinet and other furniture in the home, we should not only strictly check the brand, but also choose more solid wood furniture, and need long-term ventilation before living.

4. Genetic factors

From scientific research, we can find that leukemia is caused by external factors and internal factors of human body. The current medical research has not made a clear explanation for the pathogenesis of leukemia, but from some specific cases, we can find that the pathogenesis of leukemia and genetic factors are also closely related.

In general, the risk of leukemia in patients with congenital genetic diseases, especially those with congenital chromosomal abnormalities, is significantly higher than that in normal people. For example, because Down Syndrome has one more chromosome 21 than normal people, the proportion of leukemia can reach 95:1, which is equivalent to 3000 times of normal children!

Children are the source of laughter in every family. When children's health is threatened, it is undoubtedly a huge bolt from the blue for the family. Therefore, in peacetime, we must pay attention to let children away from harm, with care and prudence to keep their health.
