Ngaba ungumdlali weragbi, ungumdlali webhokisi, okanye umntu ohlala ebetha intloko yakhe ndaweni ithile? Ngamanye amaxesha sicinga ukuba, "Oku kukuphazamiseka nje okuncinci," kwaye asikunaki kangako. Kodwa ubusazi na ukuba ukwenzakala entloko okuphindaphindiweyo kunokukhokelela ekulimaleni kwengqondo okukhulu kwiminyaka kamva? Namhlanje sithetha nge-CTE, imeko embi kodwa engaxelwanga kakuhle. Kubalulekile ukuba wena nabantwana bakho nikwazi oku.
Ngamafutshane, yintoni i-CTE?
I-CTE imele i-Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy. Ngamafutshane, yimeko yengqondo ehlala ixesha elide ebangelwa kukwenzakala entloko okuphindaphindiweyo. Ezi nzakala zingabandakanya ukubetheka okubangelwa kukubetheka okuqinileyo entloko, kunye nokubetheka okuncinci okusenokubonakala kungengobungozi kangako.
Esi sifo saqala ukufunyanwa ngeminyaka yoo-1920 phakathi kwabadlali bebhokisi. Ngelo xesha, sasibizwa ngenye indlela. Njengoko babekhula, abanye abadlali bebhokisi baqala ukulibala intetho yabo baze baziphathe ngendlela eyahlukileyo. Sasibizwa nangokuba "sinxilile nge-punch." Kodwa kamva kwafunyaniswa ukuba le meko yayingaphelelanga kubadlali bebhokisi, kodwa nakubadlali abakwimidlalo efana ne-rugby kunye ne-hockey.
Into ebalulekileyo kukuba ezi mpawu azibonakali kwangoko emva kokwenzakala entloko. Zibonakala kwiminyaka, kwanasemva kwamashumi eminyaka. Ngoko ke, kufuneka silumke malunga nokwenzakala entloko.
Esi sifo sikhula njani?
Ukuze sikuqonde oku, masingene engqondweni yethu okomzuzwana. Khawuthelekelele ukuba kukho uhlobo oluthile lweproteni engqondweni yethu olunceda ukugcina ii-neurons zizinzile kwaye zihlelekile. Ibizwa ngokuba yiproteni 'ye-tau' . Phantsi kweemeko eziqhelekileyo, le proteni ye-tau ibalulekile ekusebenzeni kakuhle kwengqondo yethu.
Kodwa xa intloko ibetheka ngokuphindaphindiweyo, uhlobo lwale protein ye-tau luyatshintsha ngenxa yokwenzakala okwenzeka ngaphakathi kwengqondo. Ziqala ukunamathelana, zihlangane, kwaye zihlangane. Ezi protein ze-tau ezidibeneyo ziqokelelana ngaphakathi kweeseli zemithambo-luvo kwaye zitshabalalise kancinci ezo seli. Njengokungcola okuqhekeka kumbhobho kwaye kuthintele amanzi ukuba aphume, ezi protein ze-tau eziqhekekayo ziphazamisa unxibelelwano phakathi kweeseli zemithambo-luvo. Ekuhambeni kwexesha, lo monakalo usasazeka kuyo yonke ingqondo. Yiyo loo nto i-CTE iyiyo.
Asinguye wonke umntu owenzakeleyo entloko ofumana le meko, ngoko ke abanye abaphandi bakholelwa ukuba ezinye izinto, ezifana nemfuza , zisenokuba zibandakanyekile. Nangona kunjalo, unobangela oqinisekisiweyo kuphela kukwenzakala entloko okuphindaphindiweyo.
Zithini iimpawu ze-CTE?
Ngenxa yokuba iimpawu ze-CTE zihlala zibonakala emva kweminyaka, zinokubhidaniswa lula neempawu zezinye izifo. Ezinye iimpawu zinokufana nesifo sika-Alzheimer, ngelixa ezinye zifana nesifo sika-Parkinson.
Kukho iintlobo ezimbini eziphambili zeempawu ezinokuvela ngamaxesha ahlukeneyo ebomini.
1. Ngexesha lokufikisa (ekupheleni kweminyaka engama-20 okanye ekuqaleni kweminyaka engama-30): Kulapho kuvela khona uninzi lweengxaki zempilo yengqondo kunye nokuziphatha.
2. Xa umntu emdala (malunga neminyaka engama-60 ubudala): Iingxaki zokukhumbula kunye nobuchule bokucinga ziyavela ngeli xesha.
Itheyibhile engezantsi ibonisa ezinye zeempawu eziqhelekileyo ezinxulumene ne-CTE.
| Iimpawu eziphambili zesifo se -CTE | |
|---|---|
| Ukulahleka kwenkumbulo | Ukudideka okukhulu |
| Ukuziphatha okungenangqiqo, okungaguquguqukiyo | Ubuthathaka ekwenzeni izigqibo |
| Ubundlobongela nomsindo okhawulezayo | Uxinzelelo kunye nokuxhalaba |
| Ukurhanelwa ngokungafanelekanga ngabanye abantu (i-Paranoia) | I-Dementia (ukulahlekelwa ngamandla okucinga kunye nenkumbulo) |
| Umsebenzi wokucwangcisa ubunzima | Ukuxhomekeka kwiziyobisi okanye utywala |
| Iingcinga okanye imizamo yokuzibulala | Ukungakwazi ukulawula iimvakalelo |
Ukuba wena okanye umntu omaziyo unale mpawu, ingakumbi xa enembali yokwenzakala entloko, kubaluleke kakhulu ukubona ugqirha uze uthethe ngayo.
Uyazi njani ukuba unesi sifo?
Ngelishwa, ngeteknoloji yangoku, akukho ndlela yokuqinisekisa i-CTE ngokupheleleyo ngelixa umntu esaphila. Eyona ndlela yokufumanisa isifo ngokuqinisekileyo kukuhlolwa kwezicubu zobuchopho emva kokufa (i-autopsy).
Nangona kunjalo, ugqirha unokukrokrela ukuba "oku kusenokuba yi-CTE" ngokusekelwe kwiimpawu, imbali yesigulana yokwenzakala entloko , kunye nezinye iimvavanyo. Ukuze kwenziwe njalo, iimvavanyo ezinje ngezi zisetyenziselwa ukuthintela ezinye iimeko zobuchopho.
- I-CT scan (i-Computed Tomography - i-CT scan)
- Iskeni ye-MRI (Umfanekiso weMagnetic Resonance - Iskeni ye-MRI)
- Iskeni yePET (iPositron Emission Tomography - iskeni yePET)
- Ukubhoboza umqolo/Ukubhoboza iLumbar
Abaphandi okwangoku baphuhlisa iindlela zokufumanisa i-CTE ngelixa besaphila, nto leyo enokubangela ukuba esi sifo sibonwe kwangethuba kwaye sinyangwe kwixesha elizayo.
Ngubani osengozini enkulu?
- Abantu abadlala imidlalo yokudibanisa: Abo badlala imidlalo efana neragbi, ibhola ekhatywayo, ihoki, kunye nebhokisi basengozini enkulu.
- Abo bakwinkonzo yasemkhosini: Ngenxa yokuba kunokwenzeka ukuba bangonzakala entloko ngexesha loqeqesho okanye edabini.
- Abadlali abancinci nabantwana besikolo: Oku kubaluleke kakhulu. Ngamanye amaxesha abantwana abadlala kwinqanaba lesikolo banokuba semngciphekweni omkhulu kunabadlali abangochwephesha.
Khumbula, ingqondo yomntwana isakhula kwaye ngoko ke inovelwano ngakumbi kuneyomntu omdala. Ngoko ke, njengabazali, kufuneka silumke kakhulu ekukhuseleni iintloko zabantwana bethu ngexesha lemidlalo.
Unyango kunye nolawulo lwe-CTE
Akukho nyango lwe-CTE, kwaye esi sifo sinokuba mandundu ngokuhamba kwexesha. Nangona kunjalo, kukho iindlela ezininzi zonyango kunye neendlela ezinokunceda ukulawula iimpawu nokwenza ubomi bube lula.
Unyango lwezonyango:
- Unyango lomzimba: Xa uhamba nzima okanye unengxaki yokuhamba.
- Unyango lomsebenzi: Nceda ngemisebenzi yemihla ngemihla wedwa.
- Unyango lwentetho nolwimi: Ukunceda ekukhumbuleni nasekuthetheni.
Utshintsho kwindlela yokuphila:
- Gcina amanqaku:Ukuba uneengxaki zememori, ukusebenzisa ikhalenda okanye incwadi yamanqaku kunokukunceda.
- Misela inkqubo: Ukuba nenkqubo ethile yosuku kukunika ukuzithemba.
- Lumka ngezenzo zokungakhathali: Lumka ngezinto ezifana nokungcakaza, ukuchitha imali ngokungeyomfuneko, kunye notywala, kuba zinokukhokelela ekubeni umlutha.
- Ziqhelise iindlela zokuzola: Izinto ezinje ngokuphefumla nzulu kunye nokucamngca zinokukunceda ulawule iimvakalelo zakho.
- Lala kakuhle: Ukulala ngokwaneleyo kubaluleke kakhulu ekulawuleni iimpawu.
- Ukuzilolonga: Ukuzilolonga umzimba kunokunciphisa uxinzelelo.
Simele senze ntoni ukuze sizikhusele kwesi sifo?
Eyona ndlela ilungileyo yokuzikhusela kwi-CTE kukunciphisa ukwenzakala entloko, ingakumbi kubantwana nakubantu abadala abancinci abadlala imidlalo.
- Nxiba izixhobo zokhuseleko ezifanelekileyo: Nxiba izixhobo ezifana nezigcina-ntloko ngokuchanekileyo nangobungakanani obufanelekileyo.
- Funda indlela echanekileyo yokwenza izinto: Ziqhelise iindlela ezifanelekileyo zokuma kunye neendlela ezinxulumene nomdlalo.
- Kuphephe ubundlobongela obungeyomfuneko: hlonipha imithetho yomdlalo.
- Musa ukudlala ngokulimala: Ukuba wenzakele entloko, musa ukudlala kwakhona ude uphile ngokupheleleyo. Qiniseka ukuba uqhagamshelana nogqirha wakho ngale nto.
- Uxanduva Lwabaqeqeshi: Luxanduva lwabaqeqeshi ukunciphisa iindlela ezingqubanayo.
- Nxiba iibhanti zezihlalo: Nxiba iibhanti zezihlalo rhoqo ukuze uthintele ukwenzakala entloko kwiingozi zezithuthi.
Umyalezo Wokuya Ekhaya
- I-CTE sisifo sengqondo esibi nesihlala ixesha elide esibangelwa kukwenzakala entloko rhoqo.
- Iimpawu zihlala zibonakala emva kweminyaka emininzi yengozi. Ezinye zezi ziquka ukulahlekelwa yinkumbulo, utshintsho kwindlela yokuziphatha, kunye nokudakumba.
- Ukuthintela yeyona ndlela ilungileyo yokuthintela esi sifo, kwaye kubalulekile ukukhusela intloko yakho ngexesha lemidlalo nakubomi bemihla ngemihla.
- Ukuba wena okanye umntu omaziyo uneempawu ze-CTE kunye nembali yokwenzakala entloko, bonana nogqirha ngokukhawuleza.
- Ukuba ucinga ngokuzibulala okanye ucinga ngokwenzakalisa abanye, funa ingcebiso yezonyango ngoko nangoko okanye uye kwiSebe lezeMpilo eziNgxamisekileyo (ETU) elikufutshane nawe.
