Amaqiniso abalulekile mayelana nomdlavuza wamaphaphu angamangalisa futhi angamangali. Abantu abaningi bayamangala ukuzwa indaba yangempela mayelana nomdlavuza wamaphaphu, nakuba ukuhlambalaza, nokuntuleka kwemali ngenxa yehlazo, uye washiya umdlavuza wamaphaphu ngemuva kokucwaninga kuze kube yiminyaka yamuva. Ake sibheke ezinye zezibalo, kanye namanye amaqiniso athakazelisayo nabangavamile ongawaziyo.
Ingozi ye-Cancer Impact and Change
Njengoba imbangela eholela ekubulaweni komdlavuza kokubili amadoda nabesifazane e-United States, umdlavuza wamaphaphu ubulala abantu abaningi unyaka ngamunye kunomdlavuza webele , umdlavuza wesibeletho , nomdlavuza we- colon kuhlangene. Ngo-2016, kulinganiselwa ukuthi amadoda angu-117 920 nabesifazane abangu-106.470 bayotholakala ukuthi banesifo.
Ingozi yokuphila komdlavuza wamaphaphu ingu-1 kwabangu-13 kumadoda, kanti oyedwa kwabayishumi kwabayishumi kubesifazane. Nakuba umdlavuza wamaphaphu utholakala kubantu abasha ngisho nezingane, isilinganiso seminyaka esixilongwa ngayo iminyaka engu-71.
Iqiniso elimangalisayo lapha ukuthi umdlavuza wamaphaphu kokubili unciphisa futhi wanda. Linciphisa, ngokujwayelekile, kumadoda, ngenkathi ihlaselwa emadodeni. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, noma kunjalo, umdlavuza wemaphaphu ukwanda kubantu abadala , ikakhulukazi abasha abangazange bapheze.
I-cancer yengculazi iyenzeka kuma-Non-Smokers
Ukubhema kuyimbangela ehamba phambili yomdlavuza wamaphaphu, kodwa ngesikhathi samanje, iningi labantu abahlakulela umdlavuza wamaphaphu okwamanje abumsi.
Ngokuvamile, amaphesenti angaphezu kwamaphesenti angu-50 wamaphaphu emaphaphu akhona kulabo abababhema ngaphambili. Ngaphezu kwalokho, abesifazane abangamaphesenti angu-20 nabangu-1 kwabangu-12 abakha umdlavuza wamaphaphu ababhemanga ugwayi owodwa.
Eminyakeni yamuva, umphumela womdlavuza wamaphaphu kwabangewokubhema uye wanda.
Izimbangela
Kuyaziwa ukuthi ukubhema yiyona okuhola imbangela yomdlavuza wamaphaphu, obhekene namacala angu-80 kuya kwangu-90 wamacala.
Akukwazi kakhulu ukuthi ukuvezwa kwe-radon emakhaya ethu kuyimbangela yesibili eholela emdlalweni wamaphaphu kanye nombangela oholela kubantu abangabhemi.
I-Radon idala cishe izikhathi ezingu-8 zamanqamu wamaphaphu njengomusi wesitimela, futhi labo abasengozini enkulu kakhulu yilabo abachitha isikhathi esiningi ekhaya: abesifazane nabantwana.
Ukuvezwa kwemisebenzi nakho kuyimbangela ebalulekile, kubalwa kuze kufike Amaphesenti angu-27 wamanqamu emaphaphu emadodeni. Olunye umdlavuza wamaphaphu kubangelwa ukuvezwa kokubhema kwentuthuko kanye nokungcola komoya.
Izimpawu
Izimpawu ezijwayelekile zomdlavuza wamaphaphu zihlanganisa ukukhwehlela okungahambi noma ukukhwehlela igazi. Noma kunjalo, ngamaphesenti angu-25 abantu, akukho zimpawu ezikhona. Izimpawu zokuqala zomdlavuza wamaphaphu zivame ukuphoswa ngenye inkinga, njengokutheleleka kwamapayipi, ukugula, noma ubuhlungu be-muscle ehlombe, emuva noma esifubeni. Abanye bangase bawaxoshe njengenguquko "evamile" ehambisana nokuguga noma ukuguga.
Iqiniso elithakazelisayo - eliyinto engaphezu kokuthakazelisayo ngokuthi lingase lenze umehluko ekusindiseni izimpilo - ukuthi izimpawu zomdlavuza wamaphaphu zivame ukuhluka kwabesifazane kunabesifazane, futhi izimpawu zomdlavuza wamaphaphu kwabangewona abokubhema ngokuvamile ahluke kulabo bantu ababhema.
Inothi kanye nezimpawu zomdlavuza wamaphaphu kwabangewona abokubhema ngokuvamile bahluke kulabo abashaya nabo. Ngokwesiko, ukubhema kwakungase kubangele uhlobo lomdlavuza wamaphaphu olusondela eduze kwemimoya emikhulu, ngakho-ke lwabangelwa ukukhwehlela nokukhwehlela igazi. Uhlobo oluvame kakhulu lomdlavuza wamaphaphu kwabesifazane nabangewona abhema - ipulazi le-adenocarcinoma - livame ukukhula ezindaweni ezingaphandle zamaphaphu. Kule ndawo, izimpawu zokuqala zivame ukuphefumula ngokuzivocavoca nokukhathala okujwayelekile.
Ukusinda Amanani kuyiNtuthuko
Isilinganiso seminyaka emihlanu yokusinda komdlavuza wamaphaphu singamaphesenti angu-16 kuya kwangu-18 kuphela kodwa sithuthukisa ngisho nabantu abanomdlavuza wamaphaphu ophakeme.
Lapho umdlavuza wamaphaphu ubanjwa ekuqaleni, amazinga okusinda aphezulu kakhulu. Ukuhlolwa komdlavuza we-Lung manje kuyatholakala kulabo abaye baphuza esikhathini esidlule, futhi noma ubani onomlando wokubhema kufanele akhulume nodokotela wabo, ngisho noma beyeka ukubhema eminyakeni eyishumi eyedlule.
