Mubvunzo: Gore rakakosha sei seAlzheimer's risk factor?
Mhinduro:
Chimwe chinonyanya kuzivikanwa chinokonzerwa nechirwere cheAlzheimer chiri kuwedzera makore. Vanhu vazhinji vane chirwere vane 65 kana kupfuura, kunyange zvazvo vamwe vanogona kuva nevemhuri, kana kuti kutanga kweAlzheimer's, kutanga kwema30 ne40. Mikana yekuvandudza Alzheimer inowedzera kaviri papera makore mashanu mushure memakore 65.
Mushure mezera remakore makumi mashanu, njodzi inosvika inenge 50 muzana.
Mukudzidza kwakaitwa muna 1995 muEast Boston, Massachusetts, vanhu vese vasiri vemuzvikoro vane makore makumi maviri nemazana makumi maviri nemapfumbamwe munharaunda iyi yevanhu 32 000 vakadzidza: kuwanda kwechirwere cheAlzheimer chaive che10% chevaya vanopfuura makore 65 uye 47% pakati pevakwegura kupfuura Makore 85. Zvikamu zvisere zvevanhu vakura kudarika 65 ne36% yevaya vanopfuura vanopfuura 85 vaiva nehutachiona hwekuziva zvakanyanya kukwanisa kudzikisa kukwanisa kwavo kurarama vakasununguka. Hazvisi pachena kuti iyo nharaunda inomirira sei vanhu vakawanda.
Kunyange zvazvo kupararira kwechirwere chikamu chevanhu vanobatwa nechirwere pane imwe nguva, chiitiko chechirwere chiyero apo mitsva itsva inowanikwa muhuwandu panguva yakatarwa. Nechirwere cheAlzheimer, chiitiko pakati pevanhu vane makore 85 nerekare inenge nguva 14 pakati pevanhu vane makore 65 kusvika 69.
Chimwe chidzidzo chakawana kuti kutanga pazera remakore makumi matanhatu nemashanu, njodzi yeAlzheimer's disease yakawedzera ne 23 muzana kwegore rimwe remakore.
Nhamba yevanhu veAmerica neAlzheimer uye mamwe marudzi ehutano hwemagumisiro inowedzera gore negore nekuda kwekukura kwakasimba kwevanhu vakura. Iyi nhamba inoratidzwa kuti ienderere mberi kuwedzera mumakore anotevera semakore ekuzvarwa kwevana.
Pakazosvika 2030, chikamu chevanhu vemuUnited States vane makore 65 nekurembera kunotarisirwa kuwedzera. Pakati pa2010 na2050, mukuru wekare (vanhu vane makore 85 nekure) anotarisirwa kuwedzera kubva 29.5 muzana yevanhu vose vakwegura muUnited States kusvika 35.5 muzana. Izvi zvinoreva kuwedzera kwemamiriyoni gumi nemaviri ekukwegura-vanhu vakwegura - vanhu avo vachava pangozi yakakura yekuvandudza Alzheimer's. Kunyange zvazvo zera iri, hongu, dambudziko risingaiti pasi pekudzora kwedu, mararamiro ehupenyu nekuchinja, uye uchapupu huri kuwedzera kuti vanogona kubatsira kuderedza dambudziko redu rekushaiwa chirwere cheAlzheimer .
