中德专家携手救治疑难病患******
中新网上海2月2日电 (记者 陈静)在新冠肺炎疫情防控中,跨国高难度医疗救治并没有间断。
记者2日走访国际神经外科医生集团(INC)了解到,作为世界知名颅底、脑干肿瘤和脑血管病领域专家巴特朗菲教授,2022年多次来华开展学术交流。期间,两国医学专家同台手术,在救治疑难病症患者的同时,积极推进中外神经外科之间的互动。
据悉,江苏省卫生支撑计划中德国际合作交流项目合作专家,2022年苏州大学附属儿童医院和巴特朗菲教授开启了第二聘期(5年)的合作。同期,苏州独墅湖医院聘请巴特朗菲教授成为该院神经外科首席顾问,以提升国际医疗服务能力,加强中外专家交流合作。据了解,未来,巴特朗菲教授将每年定期来到苏州,围绕神经外科临床复杂难题与该院医疗团队深入合作,在高精尖医疗设备的支撑下,让国内疑难脑瘤患者不出国门,就能接受顶级专家手术治疗。
据介绍,2022年11月份至12月份线下学术交流活动历时21天,除了参加线下及线上学术交流会议、正常的教学、病例讨论和查房外,巴特朗菲教授还主刀,为近30例疑难脑瘤患者进行手术。在示范手术中,巴特朗菲教授进行了“世界高难度”脑干-延髓手术示范教学直播。这是一例成功的脑干延髓海绵状血管瘤的全切根治性手术,挽救了一位19岁少年的生命。近7000名国内神经外科医生全程观摩、交流互动。
据介绍,多名接受手术的患者,其肿瘤分别位于脑干、颅底、脊髓及视神经内等位置。在国内神经外科专家的协作配合下,巴特朗菲教授最大程度切除肿瘤,且尽力完好保留患者的正常神经功能。目前,这些患者术后均恢复良好,已基本顺利出院。
12岁少年小宇(化名),罹患脑干海绵状血管瘤。四处求医后,小宇妈妈均被告知手术风险巨大,手术可能导致瘫痪,包括一些其他神经的损伤;可能视神经、吞咽功能、语言...都会受损。最终他们求助巴特朗菲教授。这位专家给了他们积极接受治疗的信心。
2022年11月20日,在中德专家合作诊疗、密切配合之下,小宇在苏州大学附属儿童医院顺利接受。出手术室,小宇即清醒;术后第二天,孩子正常吃饭;第三天可下地行走;术后10天,小宇妈妈开心地说:“我儿子说,想要自行车。他健康了,让我给他买辆自行车!”
在另一台教学手术中,巴特朗菲教授主刀,从早上9点到晚上9点30分,历经12个半小时的高难度手术,这位专家从33岁郑女士(化名)的脑中,成功切除一个巨大的脑干-脊髓髓内肿瘤。据介绍,这台手术其实相当于两台手术——脑干延髓、脊柱。术后,巴特朗菲教授表示,郑女士的肿瘤起源于脑干下部,累及延髓和颅颈交界区,且向下方延伸到整个颈部脊髓以及一直到第一胸椎水平,病变累及范围近15cm,这个位置的手术稍有不慎,患者可能面临瘫痪、呼吸心跳暂停、昏迷植物人等不可挽回的结果。
据了解,为了更好地保护该名患者的正常神经功能并切除肿瘤,仅仅延髓、脊髓部位的肿瘤剥离,巴特朗菲教授就用了4个小时。高难度手术的成功实施,也体现了中德医疗团队的精诚协作。
自2023年1月8日起,新冠病毒感染“乙类乙管”优化移民管理政策措施开始实施,中外人员流动和学术交流合作正逐步恢复正常。
据悉,当下国内外神外科医生期待更多面对面沟通交流、切磋手术技巧的机会,以能拉进彼此的距离,增加相互了解。据透露,今年3月下旬,巴特朗菲教授还将再次来华学术交流并示范手术。
INC方面表示:在目前的情况下,中国神经外科医生不仅要更多“走出去”,积极出国参加学术交流,也应邀请更多国际神经外科大咖来华访问交流。
INC方面表示,今后将展开多场由多位世界知名专家领衔授课、国内知名医院的专家来沪参加的学术沙龙,并组织国内神经外科领域医生等赴海外进修;希望分享前沿技术成果,在深化国际间手术技术合作进程中,让中国医务工作者了解国际最新的学术动态,共同推动世界神经外科学科发展、造福更多神经外科疑难病患。(完)
中新网评:处理核污水绝不是日本自家私事******
中新网北京1月19日电(蒋鲤)日本政府近日称,将于2023年春夏期间开始向海洋排放经过处理的福岛第一核电站核污水。日本罔顾国内民众及周边国家的屡屡反对,企图将核污水“一倒了之”,把一件关乎全球海洋生态环境和公众健康的事当成了自家私事。
资料图:日本福岛第一核电站。2011年,福岛核电站事故发生后,大量放射性物质泄漏到大气层和太平洋,对周围环境造成了难以逆转的伤害,数十万人被迫撤离该地区。时至今日,作为日本邻国之一的韩国仍未解除福岛海鲜禁令。
日本以核污水存储能力即将达到上限为由,在2021年4月13日,正式决定将福岛第一核电站核污水排入太平洋。过去一年多,日本政府和东京电力公司一直在持续推进核污水排海计划。
日本政府辩称,这些核污水经多核素处理系统(ALPS)处理后很安全,甚至“可以喝”,这样的表态无疑在愚弄大众。
事实上,经过处理的核污水仍含有多种放射性物质,核污水一旦排放入海就无法回收,长期来看,将会给海洋生态带来难以估量的潜在威胁,最终危害人类健康。
因此,核污水排海计划推出后,遭到日本民众强烈反对。日本《朝日新闻》2022年3月公布的问卷调查显示,福岛县、宫城县和岩手县受访的42个市町村长中,约六成反对东京电力公司福岛第一核电站核污水排放入海。日本全国渔业协会联合会也多次申明立场,反对该计划。
日本政府认为,核污水排海是最便宜、最省事的解决方案,但此举却将周边国家乃至全世界置于核污染风险中。太平洋非日本一家之海,核污水会随着洋流流动,其影响势必会跨越国界,危害周边国家乃至整个国际社会的公共福祉和利益。
《韩国经济新闻》发文称,相关研究认为,福岛核污水如果排放入海,约7个月后将到达济州等韩国海域,该国水产业和旅游业将遭受相当大的损失。
德国南极海洋机构也曾发出警告,若日本将所有核污水排入海中,不到半年,整个太平洋都将面临高度辐射威胁,包括远在大洋另一端的美国。太平洋地区人民更是对日本该计划持反对意见。
日本作为《联合国海洋法公约》缔约国,有义务保护海洋环境。然而,在核污水排海方案的正当性、核污水数据的可靠性、净化装置的有效性、环境影响的不确定性等问题上,日本未能作出科学、可信的说明。
国际原子能机构技术工作组虽已三次赴日实地考察评估,但尚未就日排海方案的安全性给出结论,并且对日本提出诸多澄清要求和整改意见。在此情况下,日本仍执意推进核污水排海工程建设,这是极不负责任的行为。
太平洋不是日本的下水道,日本必须正视各方合理关切,在与周边国家等相关利益方和国际原子能机构充分协商后,制定合理的核污水处理方案。日本也要着眼长远,若只顾眼前,执意将核污水排放入海,不仅其自身,周边国家乃至全世界都将为之买单,其后果必将会危害数代人。
Fukushima water disposal by no means Japan’s own business
By John Lee
(ECNS) -- Japan has announced it will release treated wastewater from the wrecked Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the Pacific Ocean this year.
Although Fukushima wastewater disposal affects global marine ecological environment protection and public health, Japan has turned a deaf ear to domestic and international opposition to dumping the contaminated water into the sea, treating the "global" matter as its own business.
The Fukushima accident in 2011 had sent large quantities of radiation into the atmosphere and the Pacific Ocean, causing irreversible damage to the surrounding environment, and hundreds of thousands of people were forced to evacuate the area. South Korea still maintains its import ban on Japanese seafood from areas affected by the Fukushima nuclear disaster.
On April 13, 2021, Japan announced it had decided to discharge contaminated radioactive wastewater in Fukushima Prefecture into the sea due to dwindling storage space, with the Japanese government and plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. promoting the release plan over the past year.
The Japanese government argues that the water treated by an advanced liquid processing system, or ALPS, is safe and drinkable, which is undoubtedly fooling the public.
In fact, the treated wastewater still includes a variety of radioactive substances and can’t be recycled once discharged into the sea, which will pose a great threat to marine ecology and ultimately endanger human health in the long run.
Therefore, the discharge plan has been strongly opposed in Japan. According to a questionnaire conducted by The Asahi Shimbun, nearly 60 percent of mayors of 42 municipalities in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures oppose the discharge plan. The National Fisheries Cooperative Federation of Japan has also repeatedly stated its opposition in public.
The Japanese government believes that dumping Fukushima wastewater into the sea is the cheapest and most convenient solution, but neighboring countries and even the whole world will be at risk of nuclear pollution.
The Pacific Ocean doesn’t belong to Japan and the wastewater flow along oceanic currents will surely break boundaries and endanger public welfare and the interests of neighboring countries and even the international community.
The Korea Economic Daily reported that related research concluded that if contaminated water from Fukushima is released into the ocean, it would only take seven months for the contaminated water to reach the shores of Jeju Island, with the country's aquaculture and tourism suffering considerable losses.
According to the calculation of a German marine scientific research institute, radioactive materials will spread to most of the Pacific Ocean within half a year from the date of discharge, and the U.S. and Canada will be affected by nuclear pollution. People in the Pacific region also oppose the discharge plan.
As a participant of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, Japan has the obligation of protecting the marine environment.
However, it hasn’t offered a full and convincing explanation on issues like the legitimacy of the discharge plan, the reliability of data on the nuclear-contaminated water, the efficacy of the treatment system or the uncertainty of environmental impact.
Though the IAEA has yet to complete a comprehensive review after three investigations in Japan, the Japanese side has been pushing through the approval process for its discharge plan and even started building facilities for the discharge. It is rather irresponsible for Japan to act against public opinion at home and concerns abroad.
The Pacific Ocean is not a private Japanese sewer. The country must seriously heed the voices of the international community and make a reasonable plan for the Fukushima wastewater disposal after full consultation with stakeholders and international agencies.
If it only seeks instant interest and insists on discharging the contaminated water into the sea, not only itself, but also its neighboring countries and the entire world will pay for the decision and several generations will be forced to bear the consequence.
