Ukuqonda i-Leukemia: Yintoni, kwaye ngaba kufuneka ukhathazeke? | Nirogi Lanka

Ukuva igama elithi " i-Leukemia " kunokoyikisa ngendlela eqondakalayo. Kuyinto eqhelekileyo ukuziva uxhalabile xa ujongene namagama anjalo. Nangona kunjalo, ukuqonda kakuhle ukuba yintoni, kutheni isenzeka, ziziphi iimpawu, kunye nokuba kukho unyango olusebenzayo kunokunceda kakhulu ekunciphiseni olo loyiko. Apha eNirogi Lanka, sifuna ukuthetha ngalo mhlaza unxulumene negazi ngendlela elula neqondakalayo—njengokuba umhlobo okanye ilungu losapho lichaza loo nto kuwe.

Yintoni iLeukemia?

Ngamafutshane, i-leukemia ngumhlaza wegazi . Eyona mveliso iphambili yokuveliswa kwegazi emzimbeni wakho ngumongo wakho wethambo . Ngaphakathi kweli "fektri," umzimba wakho uqala ukuvelisa iiseli zegazi ezingaqhelekanga—ingakumbi iiseli zegazi ezimhlophe ezingavuthwanga—ngaphandle kolawulo. Igama elithi "leukemia" livela kumagama esiGrike athetha "umhlophe" (leukos) kunye "negazi" (haima).

Ngokungafaniyo neminye imidla yomhlaza emininzi, i-leukemia ayihlali isenza i-dumb eqinileyo okanye (i-tumor) onokuyibona kwi -X-ray ( X-ray ) okanye kwi -CT scan ( CT scan ).

Kukho iintlobo ezahlukeneyo ze-leukemia. Ezinye zixhaphake kakhulu ebantwaneni, ngelixa ezinye zixhaphake kakhulu kubantu abadala. Izigqibo zonyango zithathwa ngokwahlukeneyo ngokusekelwe kuhlobo oluthile lwe-leukemia, ubudala bakho, kunye nemeko yakho yempilo iyonke.

Ikhula njani i-leukemia?

I-leukemia iqala kumongo wakho wethambo , izicubu ezithambileyo ezifana nesiponji ngaphakathi emathanjeni akho. Kulapho umzimba wakho udala khona iiseli zegazi. Ezi seli zidlula amanyathelo aliqela ukuze zikhule ngokupheleleyo. Igazi eliphilileyo lenziwe ngeentlobo ezintathu eziphambili:

• Iiseli ezibomvu zegazi : Ezi zithwala ioksijini kunye nezinye izondlo ezibalulekileyo emzimbeni wakho wonke.
• Iiseli ezimhlophe zegazi : Ezi liqela lokuzikhusela lenkqubo yakho yomzimba, elilwa nezifo.
• Iiplatelets : Ezi zinceda ukujiya kwegazi lakho xa unesilonda.

Zonke ezi seli zivela kwiiseli ze-hematopoietic stem. Ezi seli ze-stem zahluma zibe ziindlela ezimbini: iiseli ze-myeloid kunye neeseli ze-lymphoid. Xa zikhula ngokwesiqhelo, ziba:

• Iiseli zeMyeloid : Ezidala iiseli ezibomvu zegazi, iiplatelets, kunye neeseli ezithile ezimhlophe zegazi (iiBasophils, iiEosinophils , kunye neeNeutrophils).
• Iiseli ze-lymphoid : Ezidala ezinye iiseli ezimhlophe zegazi (ii-Lymphocytes kunye neeseli zokubulala zendalo).

Kumntu one-leukemia, enye yezi seli zikhulayo iqala ukwahlukana ngokukhawuleza nangokungalawulekiyo . Sizibiza ngokuba “ziiseli ze-leukemia.” Zigcwala umongo wethambo, zingashiyi ndawo yokuvelisa iiseli ezibomvu zegazi eziphilileyo, iiseli ezimhlophe zegazi, okanye iiplatelets.

I-leukemia ichaphazela njani umzimba wakho?

Xa iiseli ze-leukemia zigqithisa iiseli eziphilileyo, kuvela iingxaki ezininzi:

• Iiseli ze-leukemia azenzi imisebenzi ebalulekileyo efana neyeeseli ezisempilweni.
• Ngenxa yokuba iiseli ze-leukemia zigcwele umongo wethambo, iiseli eziphilileyo azikwazi ukukhula okanye ukuvuthwa ngokufanelekileyo .
• Ngenxa yoko, umzimba wakho awukwazi ukuvelisa iiseli ezibomvu ezisebenzayo, iiseli ezimhlophe, okanye iiplatelets ezaneleyo.
• Ngenxa yoko, amalungu akho kunye nezicubu zakho zisenokungafumani ioksijini eyaneleyo. Ukongeza, umzimba wakho ulahlekelwa ngamandla awo okulwa nosulelo okanye ukujiya igazi ngokufanelekileyo ukuba wenzakele.

Ziziphi iintlobo eziphambili ze-leukemia?

I-leukemia idla ngokuhlelwa ngokwendlela ekhula ngayo ngokukhawuleza kunye nomgca weseli (i-myeloid okanye i-lymphoid) echaphazelekileyo.

Ngokwesantya sokuqhubeka kwesifo

• I-Acute leukemia : Kolu hlobo, iiseli ze-leukemia zanda ngokukhawuleza, nto leyo ebangela ukuba isifo siqhubeke ngokukhawuleza. Usenokuqala ukuziva ungaphilanga kwiiveki ezimbalwa. Le yingxamiseko yezonyango efuna unyango ngokukhawuleza. Lolona hlobo luqhelekileyo lomhlaza ebantwaneni.
• I-leukemia engapheliyo : Kolu hlobo, ezinye iiseli azikhuli kakuhle ngelixa ezinye ziziphatha njengeeseli ezivuthiweyo. Zinokwenza eminye imisebenzi, nangona zingasebenzi kakuhle njengeeseli eziphilileyo. Esi sifo siqhubeka kancinci kakhulu kune-leukemia ebukhali. Ungaphila iminyaka ungenazo iimpawu ezibalulekileyo. Oku kuqhelekile kubantu abadala kunabantwana.

Ngokohlobo lweseli

• I-Myelogenous okanye i-Myeloid leukemia : Ichaphazela iiseli ze-myeloid, ezinoxanduva lokuvelisa iiseli ezibomvu zegazi, iiplatelets, kunye neeseli ezithile ezimhlophe zegazi.
• I-lymphocytic leukemia : Ichaphazela iiseli ze-lymphoid, ezibaluleke kakhulu kwinkqubo yakho yokuzikhusela komzimba.

Iintlobo ezine eziphambili ze-leukemia

Ukudibanisa olu hlobo lweentlobo, kukho iintlobo ezine eziphambili:

1. I-Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (YONKE) : Uhlobo oluqhelekileyo ebantwaneni nakubantu abadala abancinci (ukuya kuthi ga kwiminyaka engama-39 ubudala), nangona lunokuchaphazela naliphi na iqela leminyaka.

2. I-Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) : Uhlobo oluxhaphakileyo lwe-acute kubantu abadala, ingakumbi abo bangaphezulu kweminyaka engama-65, nangona lunokwenzeka nakubantwana.

3. I-Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) : Uhlobo oluqhelekileyo olungapheliyo kubantu abadala (ingakumbi abo bangaphezulu kweminyaka engama-65). Kungathatha iminyaka ukuba iimpawu zibonakale.

4. I-Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) : Ixhaphake kakhulu kubantu abadala (ingakumbi abaneminyaka engaphezu kwama-65), nangona inokwenzeka nakubani na omdala. Ayiqhelekanga ebantwaneni kwaye ingathatha iminyaka ukuba ibonakalise iimpawu.

Ixhaphake kangakanani i-leukemia?

Izibalo zibonisa ukuba i-leukemia iphakathi kweentlobo ezilishumi zemidlaza ezixhaphakileyo. Nangona nabani na enokuba nayo, amaqela athile ajongene nomngcipheko omkhulu:

• Abantu abaneminyaka engama-65 ukuya kwengama-74 ubudala.
• Amadoda.
• Iintlanga ezithile.

Abaninzi bakholelwa ukuba i-leukemia sisifo sobuntwana kuphela. Nangona kunjalo, uninzi lweentlobo zixhaphake kakhulu kubantu abadala. Nangona i-leukemia ingaqhelekanga ebantwaneni, isahlala iyeyona mhlaza ixhaphakileyo ebantwaneni nakubantu abadala abancinci.

Zithini iimpawu ze-leukemia?

Iimpawu ze-leukemia zixhomekeke kuhlobo oluthile onalo. Umzekelo, ukuba une-leukemia engapheliyo, usenokungabi nazo iimpawu ezibalulekileyo kwizigaba zokuqala.

Nazi ezinye zeempawu eziqhelekileyo ze-leukemia:

• Ukudinwa okungapheliyo okanye ukuziva udiniwe lula.
• Umkhuhlane okanye ukubila ebusuku .
• Usulelo oluqhelekileyo.
• Ukuqhawukelwa ngumphefumlo .
• Ulusu oluphaphathekileyo .
• Ukunciphisa umzimba ngendlela engachazekiyo.
• Intlungu okanye ukuqaqamba kwamathambo okanye amalungu xa echukunyiswa.
• Ukuziva intlungu okanye ukugcwala phantsi kweembambo zakho zasekhohlo.
• Ii-lymph nodes ezidumbileyo entanyeni yakho, emakhwapheni, okanye emqolo, okanye kwi-spleen okanye esibindini esikhulu.
• Ukukruquka nokuphuma kwegazi okulula , okufana nokopha empumlweni, ukopha kweentsini, amabala amancinci abomvu eluswini lwakho (i-petechiae), okanye amabala amfusa/amnyama angachazekiyo.

Ukuba unayo nayiphi na kwezi mpawu, akuthethi ukuba une-leukemia. Nangona kunjalo, ukuba uhlangabezana nezi mpawu, kubalulekile ukuba ubonane nogqirha ukuze ahlolwe ngugqirha.

Yintoni ebangela i-leukemia?

I-leukemia idla ngokuqala ngotshintsho lwezakhi zofuzo kwi-DNA yeseli enye ngaphakathi komongo wakho wethambo. I-DNA isebenza njengeseti yemiyalelo, ixelela iseli ukuba ikhule nini, isebenze njani, kwaye ife nini.

Ngenxa yolu tshintsho, iiseli ze-leukemia ziqala ukwanda ngokungalawulekiyo. Zonke iiseli ezidalwe kuloo seli yokuqala eguquliweyo ziya kuba ne-DNA efanayo engaqhelekanga.

Nangona izazinzulu zingakazi ukuba kutheni ezi nguqu zenzeke, zichonge ezinye iinguqu eziqhelekileyo ezinxulumene neentlobo ezahlukeneyo ze-leukemia.

Ngubani osengozini enkulu yokufumana i-leukemia?

Nabani na unokuba ne-leukemia, kodwa uphando lubonise ukuba kukho izinto ezithile ezinokunyusa umngcipheko wakho, kuquka:

• Unyango lomhlaza lwangaphambili : Ukuba ukhe wafumana unyango olufana nonyango lwe-radiation okanye i-chemotherapy, unokuba sengozini enkulu yokuphuhlisa iintlobo ezithile ze-leukemia.
• Ukutshaya : Ukuba utshaya okanye ubhenceka kumsi osetyenziswa ngomnye umntu, umngcipheko wakho we-acute myeloid leukemia (AML) uyanda.
• Ukuchatshazelwa ziikhemikhali zoshishino : Iikhemikhali ezifana ne-benzene kunye ne-formaldehyde ziyaziwa ngokuba zizinto ezibangela umhlaza. Ezi zinokufumaneka kwizixhobo zokwakha kunye nezinto ezahlukeneyo zasekhaya (iiplastiki, irabha, iipeyinti, izibulali-zinambuzane, amayeza, iisepha, isepha, kunye neeshampu).
