I-Multiple sclerosis

I-Multiple sclerosis (MS) yisifo esilawulwa ngamasosha omzimba esidala ukuthi umzimba uhlasele isimiso sezinzwa esiyinhloko (CNS). I-CNS ifaka ubuchopho, umgogodla nezinzwa ze-optic.

Impendulo yokuvuvukala engaqondisiwe iqhubeka ngokuqhubekayo ihluba amangqamuzana emizwa yengubo yokuvikela ebizwa nge-myelin. UMyelin ugqoka imicu yezinzwa evela ebuchosheni, eduze komgogodla, nakuwo wonke umzimba.

Ngaphezu kokuvikela amangqamuzana ezinzwa, ukumbozwa kwe-myelin kusiza amasiginali wokudlulisa izinzwa, noma imizwa. Ukwehla okubangelwa i-myelin kuholela ezimpawu ze-MS.

Ukuhlonza i-MS ngokusebenzisa izilonda zomgogodla nobuchopho

Abantu bangabonisa izimpawu eziningi ze-MS, kepha ukuxilongwa okucacile akukwazi ukufinyelelwa ngeso lenyama.

Indlela ephumelela kunazo zonke futhi engeyona eyeyokuhlasela yokuthola ukuthi ngabe umuntu une-MS ukuskena izilonda zobuchopho nomgogodla usebenzisa i-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Izilonda zivame ukuba uphawu olutshengisa kakhulu ukuxilongwa kwe-MS. Ngokusho kweNational MS Society, cishe amaphesenti ama-5 kuphela abantu abane-MS abakhombisi izilonda kwi-MRI ngesikhathi sokuxilongwa.

I-MRI isebenzisa amagagasi anamandla kazibuthe nawomsakazo ukukhiqiza izithombe eziningiliziwe zobuchopho nomgogodla. Lokhu kuskena kungabonisa ngempumelelo noma yikuphi ukusikeka noma ukulimala emgodleni we-myelin ohlotshaniswa ne-MS.

Izilonda zomgogodla we-MS

Ukudonswa kwe-demyelination, noma ukukhishwa okuqhubekayo kwe-myelin sheath ku-CNS, kuyisisekelo se-MS. Njengoba i-myelin ifaka imicu yezinzwa ehamba ebuchosheni nakumgogodla, ukwehliswa kwesikhumba kudala izilonda kuzo zombili lezi zindawo.

Lokhu kusho ukuthi uma umuntu one-MS enezilonda zobuchopho, kungenzeka ukuthi abe nezilonda zomgogodla.

Izilonda zomgogodla zivamile ku-MS. Atholakala cishe kumaphesenti angama-80 abantu abasanda kutholakala bene-MS.

Kwesinye isikhathi inani lezilonda zomgogodla ezikhonjwe kwi-MRI lingahlinzeka udokotela ngombono wobucayi be-MS kanye nethuba lesiqephu esibi kakhulu sokususwa kobudoda okwenzeka ngokuzayo. Kodwa-ke, isayensi ngqo ngemuva kwenani lezilonda nendawo ezikuyo ayikaqondakali ngokuphelele.

Akwaziwa ukuthi kungani abanye abantu abane-MS bengaba nezilonda eziningi ebuchosheni babo kunentambo yabo yomgogodla, noma okuphambene nalokho. Kodwa-ke, kufanele kuqashelwe ukuthi izilonda zomgogodla azikhombisi ukuxilongwa kwe-MS, futhi kwesinye isikhathi kungaholela ekuxilongweni okungalungile kwe-MS.

I-Neuromyelitis optica

Ngenkathi izilonda zomgogodla nobuchopho zingaphakamisa i-MS, ukuvela kwezilonda zomgogodla nakho kungakhombisa esinye isifo esibizwa nge-neuromyelitis optica (NMO).

I-NMO inezimpawu eziningi ezigqagqene nge-MS. Kokubili i-NMO ne-MS kubonakala ngezilonda nokuvuvukala kwe-CNS. Kodwa-ke, i-NMO ivela ngokuyinhloko emgogodleni, futhi ubukhulu bezilonda buyahluka.

Uma kutholakala izilonda zomgogodla, kubalulekile ukuthola ukuxilongwa okulungile ngoba ukwelashwa kwe-MS ne-NMO kuhluke kakhulu. Ukwelashwa okungalungile kungaba nemiphumela emibi.

Ukudla okudlela endlini

I-MS yisifo esivamile sezinzwa esivezwa yizilonda ku-CNS, lapho i-myelin ihluthwa khona bese kufakwa izicubu ezibomvu.

Ama-MRIs asetshenziselwa ukunquma ukuthi ubuchopho nezilonda zomgogodla zihlobene yini ne-MS. Akuqondakali ngokuphelele ukuthi kungani izilonda zomgogodla ezingaphezulu zingakheka ngaphezu kwezilonda zobuchopho, noma okuphambene nalokho.

Kubalulekile ukukhumbula ukuthi akuzona zonke izilonda zomgogodla eziwumphumela we-MS. Kwezinye izimo, bangakhombisa esinye isifo esibizwa nge-NMO.
