    Polio is a common disease in childhood, this disease is more harmful, if children develop polio, it will be life-threatening because it is not received in time. A long time ago, the medical conditions and technology of polio were not very developed, and it is true that many children died because they did not get it in time. As the gray matter of the spinal cord can paralyze the nerves, it will affect the central nervous system, and it will also cause the feeling of muscle atrophy and weakness in the lower limbs.

    Therefore, the impact of polio on life expectancy varies from person to person, and patients can understand it according to the actual situation. Polio is the most common disease in childhood and should be understood after polio is examined. If there is an impact on life expectancy, it will bring harm to the patient's health.

    In fact, polio has a lot of impacts, and the severity of the disease can be understood according to its impact on life safety, and we have made a basic introduction to it above, because it involves the central nervous system, which will affect the patient's activity status, although the occurrence of this problem will not lead to the death of the patient, but it will cause more impact. If you want to avoid the harm of polio, you need to help your child to exercise the paralytic muscles, which will cause many dangers in the later stage, which is a problem that patients need to pay attention to.

    How the occurrence of polio affects life expectancy can be dealt with according to the results of the examination, and the impact of polio is more comprehensive. If parents can help their children to get rid of diseases or prevent diseases in childhood, it will not threaten the growth and development of children, and it is a very important process to get the polio vaccine.

    It is an infectious disease caused by poliovirus infection.

    1. The specific situation of polio.

    1. Poliomyelitis is a contagious disease, the virus will contaminate food, utensils and toys, etc., after contact with contaminated items, it is likely to enter the mouth and spread without people noticing. In addition, in the early stages of poliomyelitis, the virus can be transmitted by droplets in the nasopharyngeal secretions.

    2. The poliovirus has a strong vitality and is very suitable for surviving in a cold environment, and can survive for several months. It can survive for several days at normal room temperatures. It can survive up to three months in water or milk.

    3. The poliovirus will only infect humans, and patients will have flu-like symptoms in the early stage, such as fever, fatigue, headache and muscle pain, and will be accompanied by pharyngitis, tonsillitis and gastroenteritis.

    2. What are the clinical manifestations of polio?

    Polio is an acute infectious disease caused by poliovirus, which is more common in children, and is also known as "polio". The severity of the disease varies greatly, and the clinical manifestations vary in degree of muscle flaccid paralysis.

    What are the clinical manifestations of polio? According to experts, clinical phenotypes vary widely, and there are two basic types: mild (abrupt) and severe (paralyzed or non-paralyzed).

    Mild polio accounts for 80% to 90% of clinical infections and occurs mainly in children. The clinical manifestations are mild, and the central nervous system is not invaded. Mild fever, malaise, headache, sore throat, and vomiting appear 3 to 5 days after exposure to the pathogen, and generally recover within 24 to 72 hours.

    1. Muscle sequelae. It is mainly manifested as an imbalance in muscle function, especially the appearance of some deformities, including clubfoot and high arch. The cause of this type of sequelae is contraction and diastolic disorders caused by paralysis of the muscles.

    2. Degenerative contracture of muscles and fascia. When polio occurs, the corresponding muscles will be changed, and the paralysis will also affect the surrounding fascial tissue, causing corresponding deformities, such as hip flexion abduction and external rotation deformity and scoliosis.

    3. Deformities in other parts, including skeletal development deformities, shortening deformities, muscle disuse atrophy, etc.

    For polio patients with the above three sequelae, corresponding ** and rehabilitation are required, and the main methods used are to correct deformity and tendon displacement, which can help the recovery of muscle function to the greatest extent. Among them, the correction of deformity is suitable for children who are not fully developed and their self-control ability is not very good, mainly children under the age of seven, and the latter one is mainly for patients who have been roughly fully developed, and they have a certain degree of self-control ability and can cooperate with the smooth progress of **.

    The spinal cord plays a very important role in the body, and if there is inflammation or infection of certain systems, it may cause various adverse burdens to the body. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to strengthening effective care, understanding common recovery precautions, and reducing abnormal symptoms of bone function. And some people have polio, and the problem of polio has not been solved, leading to more and more obvious harm.

    1. Polio is an acute infectious disease caused by poliovirus, which is a neurotropic virus, which mainly invades the motor nerve cells of the central nervous system, and mainly damages the motor neuron in the anterior horn of the spinal cord.

    2 people are the only source of polio infection. It is mainly a fecal-oral route, and daily life contact is the main part of the infiltration type, which causes disease by oral ingestion of germs such as contaminated food, toys, and supplies. Airborne droplet transmission is limited to the initial period of illness.

    When the water source is polluted, it can form a large epidemic.

    3. After the virus invades the human body from the mouth, pharynx or intestinal mucosa, it can reach the local lymphoid tissue, such as the tonsils, pharyngeal wall lymphoid tissue, intestinal wall collecting lymphoid tissue, etc., to grow and multiply, and excrete the virus locally. If a large amount of specific antibodies is produced at this time, the disease can be controlled locally and a hidden infection can be formed. Otherwise, the disease will further invade the bloodstream and form the first viremia.

    As the bloodstream spreads, systemic lymphoid tissue or other susceptible extraneural tissues proliferate, and the internal blood stream is entered, resulting in a second viremia. If the specific antibody is produced quickly, it is enough to neutralize the virus, and the disease has progressed to this point, forming a sudden infection; If the body's immune function is poor, the virus in the blood invades the central nervous system through the blood-brain barrier, and severe lesions may develop into a paralytic type.

    4 The patients are mostly 1 6-year-old children, and the main symptoms are fever, general malaise, severe limb pain, irregular distribution and flaccid paralysis of varying severity, commonly known as polio. The clinical manifestations of polio are varied, including very mild nonspecific lesions, aseptic meningitis (nonparalytic poliomyelitis), and flaccid weakness of various muscle groups (paralytic poliomyelitis). Due to the damage to the motor neurons in the anterior horn of the spinal cord, the muscles involved in them lose the regulatory effect of nerves and atrophy, and the subcutaneous fat, tendons and bones also atrophy, making the whole body thinner.

    1.Poliovirus is a microRNA species.

    Poliovirus is an enterovirus of the family Microribonucleic Acid (RNA) Viridae and is common in the spinal cord and brain, but is also found in the nasopharynx, intestinal mucosa, and lymph nodes.

    According to its antigenicity, the virus can be divided into type, type, and type with little cross-immunity. The virulence of different strains can vary. Humans are the only natural reservoir of polio.

    Poliovirus is cold-resistant, 70 can retain vitality for 8 years, very sensitive to heat and drying, can be inactivated after 30min after heating for 60 minutes, boiling and ultraviolet radiation can quickly cause death. It is resistant to ethanol and ether, remains stable at pH value, and is easily inactivated by 2% iodine tincture, formaldehyde and various oxidants, such as hydrogen peroxide and potassium permanganate.

    Polio, also known as polio, is an acute infectious disease of children caused by poliovirus, which mostly occurs in children aged 5 years, especially infants and young children. The virus invades the motor neuron in the anterior horn of the spinal cord, causing flaccid muscle paralysis, with varying degrees of mild disease, no paralysis in mild cases, and death due to severe cases involving the vital center; Most cases may be **, and only a small proportion will leave the sequelae of paralysis. Since the introduction of the live, attenuated oral polio vaccine, the incidence has decreased significantly.

    **】 Poliovirus is an enterovirus belonging to the family Pesteviridae, the virus is spherical, about 20 30nm in diameter, the nucleocapsid is a three-dimensional symmetrical 20-hededron, with 60 shell particles, and no envelope. According to different antigens, it can be divided into type, type, type is easy to cause paralysis, and there is little cross-immunity between each type. The poliovirus is highly resistant to external factors, but can be inactivated by heating to more than 56, formaldehyde, 2 iodine tincture, mercury and various oxidants such as hydrogen peroxide, bleaching powder, potassium permanganate, etc.

Polio is mainly transmitted through fecal-oral transmission, with the virus being excreted through the patient's nasopharynx at the beginning of infection, and then excreted in the feces as the disease progresses. In general, the virus can be carried in the feces for several months and can be transmitted by contaminating water, food and other daily necessities. In addition, oral live attenuated vaccines, after being excreted in the stool, have the potential to regain virulence in the external environment and infect other susceptible people.
