New air travel clot risk
theory |
|
Sitting still for long periods cannot alone explain why
air passengers are at higher risk of potentially deadly
blood clots, research suggests.
The risk of developing deep vein
thrombosis is thought to be raised by air travel -
particularly long flights. But a Lancet study by Dutch
researchers found chemicals indicating clotting in 71
volunteers were higher during eight hours on a flight than
in the cinema. It suggests low air pressure and oxygen
levels on a flight may play a role.
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurs when blood passing through
the deepest veins in the calf or thigh flows so slowly that
a solid clot forms. DVTs themselves are not life-threatening
but they are associated with complications which can be
fatal. For instance, a piece of the clot can break off, and
become lodged in the lungs, resulting in a potentially fatal
pulmonary embolism. A team from Leiden University Medical
Centre measured levels of chemicals indicating clotting
activity in 71 healthy volunteers before, during and
immediately after an eight-hour flight. They also compared
the concentrations in the same individuals at the same time
points during eight hours of sitting in a cinema and eight
hours of regular daily activities. Four out of 10
participants carried a gene that put them at increased risk
of thrombosis. The results showed increased concentrations
of the chemicals during the flight compared to the other two
situations - especially in volunteers with other risk
factors for thrombosis. Other factors
Lead researcher Professor Frits Rosendaal told the BBC News
Website that immobilisation during a long flight was still
likely to be the most significant risk factor. But he said:
"Our study suggests it is not just immobilisation, there is
something else that adds to the risk when you are in the air
that does not exist when you are sitting down for a long
time while on the ground." Professor Rosendaal said
low air pressure, and oxygen levels were the most likely
candidates, but he said it was impossible to rule out other
potential factors, such as stress or air pollution. Mr John
Scurr, a consultant general and vascular surgeon at the
Lister Hospital in London, said previous studies into the
possibe impact of low oxygen and air pressure levels on the
likelihood of developing clots had produced mixed results.
"Currently the only evidence we have is that immobility is
the most important factor, but a number of us have suspected
for a long time that there must be other factors having an
effect." Mr Scurr said a much larger study was required to
provide definitive answers. However, he stressed the risk to
the travelling public was low - and that there were common
sense measures that could minimise that risk still further .

Praying For Our Fellows
Dear friends,
Hope you are all fine. With the hope and prayers that all is
safe around you, with you and your dear ones, I would like
to bring your notice to the many children around the world
who are in hopeless state.
Not everyone born in this world has a life filled with
luxuries as many of us enjoy. There are innumerable children
born to poor families who have to toil in scorching heat of
blazing sun to feed themselves and also to fetch a part of
their family's meager income. While these are unfortunate
from their birth, there are some who were born to
financially well and settled families but due to twist of
time, they are left to suffer. Sometimes these adverse
conditions are nature bestowed, but more than often they are
man-imposed. Consider the thousands of children suffering in
Iraq. They once had a beautiful life with all comforts of
life. But the US-led Iraq war has turned their life into
nightmares. Many have lost their near dear ones. Many
children are now orphans. The threat of bomb explosions
lingers on their heads all times. They have not enough to
fill their little stomachs. They don’t have medicines to
heal their wounds.
Iraq is not the only country where children are suffering.
Kashmir, Afghanistan, Palestine and in many other countries,
poor innocent souls are in distress because of the crimes of
others. We as children cannot do much, but even the little
we do will also have its effect. We children are the future.
We shall make a commitment to ourselves that when we will
mature and get to authoritative posts, we will use our
powers wisely and with responsibility. At this stage, we can
take part in charity works and more importantly pray for the
victims. Allah Almighty loves children for their innocence
and answers their prayers. So in your prayers never forget
your fellows who are suffering harsh life at one of the
corners of the earth.
Till next time, Allah Hafiz
