Waliwo obuzibu mu bitundu by’obusimu bwo? Ka tuyige ku bulwadde bwa Demyelinating Disease!

Enkola yaffe ey’obusimu eringa enkola ya waya enzibu. Okuyita mu waya zino obubaka obuva ku bwongo bwaffe ne bugenda mu bitundu by’omubiri byonna. Kale ‘waya’ zino, kwe kugamba, obutoffaali bw’obusimu `(Neurons), bulina ‘ekikuta’ ekitono eky’obukuumi. Kino tukiyita `(Myelin) . Kino kiringa ekikuta ky’akaveera waggulu ku waya y’amasannyalaze. Ekikuta kino ekya `(Myelin)` kye kikuuma obutoffaali bw’obusimu era kisobozesa obubaka bw’amasannyalaze okutambula amangu mu kyo. Teebereza, singa ekintu kyonoonese mu kikuta kino ekya `(Myelin)`, obubaka obuyita mu busimu bwaffe butaataaganyizibwa, nga waya eriko ekikuta ky'akaveera ekimenyese. Ekyo kye tuyita `(Obulwadde obukendeeza omubiri)` .

Obulwadde bwa Demyelinating kye ki?

Mu ngeri ennyangu, obulwadde obukendeeza ku mubiri (demyelinating disease) mbeera eyonoona myelin mu bwongo bwo, mu mugongo, n’obusimu bwo . Nga bwe nnagambye emabegako, myelin kye kikuta ekikuuma ekyetoolodde obusimu obuyitibwa neurons mu busimu bwaffe obw’omu makkati n’obusimu obw’okumpi. Ekikuta kino ekya myelin kinyweza, kikuuma era kiziyiza obutoffaali bw’obusimu. Tekikoma awo, naye era kiyamba ebiwujjo by’amasannyalaze okutambula wakati w’obutoffaali.

Kale, bw’oba ​​olina obulwadde obuggyamu myelin, kino kye kibaawo: abaserikale b’omubiri bo balumba mu nsobi ekikuta kino ekya myelin, oba obutoffaali obukola myelin. Kilowoozeeko ng’abaserikale baffe abaziyiza endwadde, nga balinga abaserikale b’omubiri gwaffe, nga balumba abantu baayo. Kino kikyusa engeri obusimu gye buwuliziganyaamu, engeri gye bukolamu, era n’obubonero obw’enjawulo butandika okulabika.

Bika ki eby’endwadde ezikendeeza ku mubiri (demyelinating diseases)?

Endwadde zino ezikendeeza ku mubiri (demyelinating diseases) zisobola okujja mu ngeri ez’enjawulo. Ziyinza okugabanyizibwamu ng’ezo ezisinga okukosa obusimu bwaffe obw’omu makkati (kwe kugamba, obwongo n’omugongo) n’ezo ezikosa obusimu obw’okumpi (kwe kugamba, obusimu obulala obufuluma mu bwongo n’omugongo).

Endwadde ezitera okuggyawo omubiri (demyelinating diseases) ezikosa enkola y’obusimu obw’omu makkati:

• Obulwadde bwa Multiple Sclerosis (MS) : Buno bwe bulwadde obusinga okubeerawo era obumanyiddwa ennyo mu ndwadde zino.
• Obulwadde bw’obusimu obuyitibwa Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD) .
• Obulwadde bw’emisuwa obuyita mu bitundu by’omubiri (TM) .
• Obulwadde bw’obwongo obusaasaana (ADEM) .
• Obulwadde bwa Leukoencephalopathy obugenda mu maaso (PML) .
• Obulwadde bwa Central Pontine Myelinolysis (era obuyitibwa Osmotic Demyelination Syndrome) .

Endwadde ezitera okuvaako omubiri (demyelinating diseases) ezikosa enkola y’obusimu obw’okumpi:

• Obulwadde bwa Guillain-Barré (GBS) .
• Obulwadde bw’amannyo aga Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) .
• Obulwadde bw’obusimu obuyitibwa chronic inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP) .

"Bw'ogamba nti `Demyelinating Disease`, bulijjo kitegeeza `(MS)`?"

Nedda, si bwe kiri. Waliwo embeera endala eziwerako ezigwa mu kiti kya Demyelinating Diseases. Kyokka mu nsi nga North America, MS y’esinga okubeerawo ku zino.

Endwadde zino zitera kwenkana wa?

Obulwadde bwa Multiple Sclerosis y’emu ku ndwadde ezisinga okuggya omubiri mu mubiri (demyelinating). Okunoonyereza okwakolebwa mu 2019 kwazuula nti abantu kumpi obukadde bumu mu Amerika yokka balina obulwadde bwa MS. Waliwo abantu abalina obulwadde buno ne mu Sri Lanka, naye kizibu okufuna ebibalo ebituufu ebikwata ku bulwadde buno.

Bubonero ki obulaga obulwadde obukendeeza ku mubiri (demyelinating disease)?

Obubonero bw’endwadde zino busobola okwawukana ennyo, era nabwo bwawukana okusinziira ku kika ky’obulwadde. Wano waliwo obubonero obutera okulabika obw’obulwadde obukendeeza ku busimu obukwata obusimu obw’omu makkati:

• Enkyukakyuka mu kulaba: Okulaba okuzibu, obutasobola kwawula langi (naddala emmyuufu ne kiragala), obulumi ng’otambuza amaaso, oba okulaba ebintu bibiri omulundi gumu (okulaba emirundi ebiri).
• Okuwulira ng’ozibye oba okubulwa okuwulira mu bitundu by’omubiri eby’enjawulo . Nga omuntu bw’akuzibye emikono oba amagulu.
• Embeera eno emanyiddwa nga ‘MS hug’: Kitegeeza okuwulira ng’omuntu akukwata nnyo, oba okwetooloola ekifuba oba okwetooloola olubuto.
• Obukoowu: Okuwulira ng’okooye awatali nsonga, just plain tired.
• Obuzibu mu musulo n’ekyenda: Okukaluubirirwa okufulumya omusulo, oba okwagala okufuka amangu (ekitegeeza, okubeera ng’olina okugenda amangu ng’olina okugenda), okuziyira n’ebirala.
• Bw’ofukamira ensingo mu maaso, owulira ng’owunyiriza ng’amasannyalaze agakulukuta wansi mu mugongo, emikono n’amagulu.
• Okukaluubirirwa okutambula. Amagulu gatabuka, balance eringa ebuze.
• Okunafuwa kw’ebinywa oba okukaluba.

Oyinza okufuna obubonero buno bumu bwokka, oba oyinza okufuna obuwerako mu kiseera kye kimu. Ate era, obuzibu bw’obubonero buno busobola okukyuka oluvannyuma lw’ekiseera.Ekyo kitegeeza nti, oluusi, obubonero buyinza okweyongera katono (okuwulira nga buyitiridde), n’oluvannyuma ne bukendeera okumala akaseera.

Biki ebivaako obulwadde bwa Demyelinating Disease?

Ekisinga okuvaako endwadde zino kwe kwonooneka kwa myelin n’obutoffaali obukola myelin. Nga bwe nnagambye emabegako, okwonooneka kuno kubaawo kubanga abaserikale baffe bennyini balumba mu bukyamu myelin omulamu. Mu budde obwabulijjo, abaserikale baffe abakuuma omubiri bakuuma omubiri okuva ku bintu ebireeta endwadde nga bakitiriya ne akawuka. Naye oluusi, awatali biragiro bituufu, abaserikale bano mu bukyamu balaba obutoffaali bwaffe obwa myelin ng’obw’obulabe eri omubiri. Ekyo bwe kibaawo, okuzimba kubaawo mu bitundu ebyo, ne kireeta obubonero bw’obulwadde obukendeeza ku mubiri (demyelinating disease).

Ensonga endala eziwerako ziyinza okuyamba mu kukula kw’obulwadde obuggya omubiri (demyelinating disease):

• Olw'okukwatibwa akawuka oba obuwuka .
• Genetic predisposition (kwe kugamba, enkyukakyuka ezimu mu DNA yo ezongera ku bulabe bwo obw’okufuna obuzibu bw’abaserikale b’omubiri).
• Olw’embeera endala ez’obujjanjabi, gamba ng’obutaba na vitamiini .

Oluusi, ekintu ekituufu ekivaako endwadde zino tekisobola kuzuulibwa . Okunoonyereza okulala kugenda mu maaso ku nsonga eno.

Obulwadde bwa Demyelinating Disease buzuulibwa butya?
