Ukuthandwa kwama-e-cigarettes (okwaziwa kakhulu ngokuthi yi-vaping noma "juuling") kukhuphuke kakhulu eminyakeni yamuva nje, njengamazinga ezifo zokuphefumula ezibizwa nge-popcorn lung. Ingabe lokhu kwenzeke ngengozi? Ucwaningo lwamanje luthi cha.

Izinga lamaphaphu e-popcorn kubantu abavape likhuphukile ngonyaka owedlule, kanti ne-e-cigarettes kungaba imbangela.

Yini ipopcorn lung?

I-Popcorn lung, noma i-bronchiolitis obliterans, yisifo esithinta imigwaqo yomoya emincane emaphashini akho ebizwa nge-bronchioles. Kungadala ukushwabana nokuncishiswa kwalezi zindlela ezibalulekile zomoya, okuholele ekuphefumuleni, ekuphefumuleni, nasekukhwehleleni.

Uma uthatha umoya, umoya ungene emoyeni wakho, owaziwa nangokuthi yi-trachea yakho. I-trachea bese ihlukana ibe yimigwaqo emibili yomoya, ebizwa nge-bronchi, eholela kwelinye lamaphaphu akho.

I-bronchi yabe isihlukaniswa yaba amashubhu amancane abizwa ngama-bronchioles, okuyindlela encane yomoya emaphashini akho. I-Popcorn lung yenzeka lapho ama-bronchioles eba nezibazi futhi emincane, okwenza kube nzima ngamaphaphu akho ukuthola umoya awudingayo.

I-Popcorn lung ibangelwa ukuphefumula kumakhemikhali noma ezintweni ezithile eziyingozi, ezinye zazo ezitholakala kuma-e-cigarettes. Isimo samaphaphu manje esibizwa ngokuthi i-popcorn lung sitholakale okokuqala lapho abasebenzi basefemini likapapa beba nezinkinga zokuphefumula ngemuva kokuhogela i-diacetyl, ikhemikhali elisetshenziselwa ukunikeza ukudla ukunambitheka kwebhotela. I-Diacetyl iyatholakala nakwezinye iziphuzo ezihogelwayo nge-e-cigarette.

Ezinye izimo ezixhunyaniswe ne-popcorn lung zibandakanya i-rheumatoid arthritis kanye ne-graft-versus-host disease, eyenzeka ngemuva kokufakelwa kwamaphaphu noma umnkantsha.

Kuyini ukuvutha?

I-Vaping kulapho uketshezi, imvamisa oluqukethe i-nicotine noma insangu, lushiswa ngaphakathi ku-e-cigarette kuze kube yilapho kudalwa umusi noma umusi, lapho-ke umuntu uphefumulela lo mphakathi ngaphakathi nangaphandle amunce i-nicotine, insangu, noma ezinye izinto.

Ukuhwamuka kuhlobene kanjani ne-popcorn lung?

Uma ubuke izindaba kamuva nje, kungenzeka ukuthi uzwile ngezifo nezingxabano ezihambisana nokuqhuma. Ngonyaka odlule, amacala e-popcorn lung, abizwa nangokuthi i-electronic-cigarette, noma i-vaping, ukusetshenziswa komkhiqizo-okuhambisana nokulimala kwamaphaphu (i-EVALI), nezinye izifo zokuphefumula zikhuphuke kakhulu kubantu abavota.

Ngokusho kuka, kusukela ngoFebhuwari 18, 2020, kube nezigameko eziqinisekisiwe ezingama-2,807 ze-EVALI e-United States kwathi ezingama-68 zaqinisekisa ukufa kwabantu.

Ngenkathi kungakatholakali imbangela ngqo yamacala e-EVALI, i-CDC ibika ukuthi idatha yaselebhu ibonisa ukuthi i-vitamin E acetate, okufakiwe kweminye imikhiqizo ye-THC equkethe i-vaping "kuxhumene kakhulu" nokuqubuka kwe-EVALI. Ucwaningo lwakamuva lwabantu abangu-51 abane-EVALI luthole ukuthi i-vitamin E acetate itholakale ku-lung fluid yamaphesenti angama-95 abo, kanti akekho noyedwa otholakale kuketshezi olufanayo oluvela kubahlanganyeli bokulawula okunempilo.

Kwisifundo esivela eNyuvesi yaseRochester, iziguli eziyi-11 kwezingu-12 (amaphesenti angama-92) ezazingeniswe esibhedlela ngenxa yokugula okuhlobene nomhwamuko zazisebenzise umkhiqizo we-e-cigarette owawune-THC.

I-Popcorn lung yisifo samaphaphu esingavamile ngokweqile, futhi kunzima ukusho ngokuqiniseka ukuthi kuvame kangakanani kubantu abavota.

Ucwaningo olushicilelwe ngo-2015 lubike ukuthi amaphesenti angaphezu kwama-90 kagwayi ka-e ahlolwe aqukethe i-diacetyl noma i-2,3 pentanedione (elinye ikhemikhali eliyingozi elaziwa ukudala i-popcorn lung). Lokhu kusho ukuthi uma uvota, kungenzeka ukuthi uhogela izinto ezingadala i-popcorn lung.

Kutholakala kanjani ukuthi i-popcorn lung?

Izimpawu zamaphaphu we-popcorn zingavela phakathi kwamasonto amabili kuya kwayisishiyagalombili ngemuva kokuhogela ikhemikhali eliyingozi. Izimpawu okufanele zibhekwe zifaka:

• ukukhwehlela okomile
• ukuphefumula (ukuphefumula kanzima)
• isifuba

Ukuxilonga i-popcorn lung, udokotela wakho uzokwenza ukuhlolwa okuphelele ngokomzimba futhi azokubuza imibuzo eminingana ngomlando wakho wezempilo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, bangafuna ukwenza ukuhlolwa okuthile okufana nalokhu:

• Ingabe kukhona ukwelashwa kwamaphaphu we-popcorn ahlobene ne-vaping?

  Ukwelashwa kwamaphaphu e-popcorn kungahluka kuzo zonke iziguli, kuya ngokuthi zinzima kangakanani izimpawu. Ukwelashwa okuphumelela kakhulu kwe-popcorn lung ukuyeka ukuhogela amakhemikhali ayibangelayo.

  Ezinye izinketho zokwelashwa zifaka:

  • Imithi ehogelwayo. Udokotela wakho angakunika i-inhaler esiza ukuvula leyo migudu yomoya emincane, okwenza kube lula emaphashini akho ukuthola umoya.
  • Ukuphuza ama-steroid. Imithi ye-steroid inganciphisa ukuvuvukala, okuzosiza ukuvula imigwaqo yomoya emincane.
  • Imithi elwa namagciwane. Uma kukhona ukutheleleka kwebhaktheriya emaphashini akho, ama-antibiotic angabhalwa.
  • Ukufakelwa komlenze. Ezimweni ezimbi kakhulu, ukulimala kwamaphaphu kukhulu kangangokuba kungadingeka ukufakelwa kwamaphaphu.
  Lapho uzobona udokotela wakho
