Umxholo

• UGqirha Mohan iZiko leZifo zeSwekile
• Ukuthatha ulawulo lweSwekile yakho

Wonke umntu uyaludinga uncedo ngamanye amaxesha. Le mibutho inikezela enye ngokubonelela ngezixhobo ezikhulu, ulwazi kunye nenkxaso.

Inani labantu abadala abaphila nesifo seswekile liphantse laphindeka kane ukusukela ngo-1980, kunye noMbutho wezeMpilo weHlabathi (i-WHO) ukuba isifo seswekile siyakuba ngunobangela wesixhenxe okhokelela ekufeni kwihlabathi liphela ngo-2030.

E-United States, abantu abangaphezu kwezigidi ezingama-30 banesifo seswekile.

Ukanti ngaphezulu kwezigidi ezisi-7 abazi nokuba banesi sifo.

Isifo seswekile sisifo esinganyangekiyo esenzeka xa iswekile yegazi lomzimba (aka iswekile yegazi), iphezulu kakhulu. Uhlobo lwe-2 yeswekile lolona hlobo luqhelekileyo lwesifo seswekile, kwaye lwenzeka xa umzimba uxhathisa kwi-insulin okanye ungenzi ngokwaneleyo. Oku kwenzeka rhoqo kubantu abadala.

Ukuba asinyangwa, isifo seswekile sinokubangela ukonakala kwemithambo-luvo, ukunqunyulwa amalungu omzimba, ubumfama, isifo sentliziyo kunye nokufa icala.

Nangona lungekho unyango lwesifo seswekile, esi sifo sinokulawulwa. Umbutho we-American Diabetes Association (ADA) ucebisa ukulinganisa ukutya kunye nokuzivocavoca kunye neyeza, eziza kunceda ukulawula ubunzima bomzimba kunye nokugcina i-glucose yegazi kwindawo efanelekileyo.

Ngokusebenzisa imfundo kunye nokufikelela, kukho inani lemibutho kunye namanyathelo asebenzayo ukudala iinkqubo kunye nokubonelela ngezixhobo kubantu abanesifo sikashukela kunye neentsapho zabo. Sijonga amaziko amabini aphambili kwiinkonzo ezintsha kwabo baphila nohlobo 1 okanye uhlobo lweswekile yesibini.

UGqirha Mohan iZiko leZifo zeSwekile

Unyana waseIndiya "uYise weSwekile," uGqirha V. Mohan wayehlala emiselwe ukuba abe nguvulindlela kwicandelo leswekile. Uqale ngokusebenza ebaleni njengomfundi ofundela ubugqirha kwaye wanceda utata wakhe, ongasekhoyo uNjing. M. Viswanathan, waseka iziko lokuqala labucala leswekile e-India, elizinze e Chennai.

Ngo-1991, kumzamo wokunceda inani elandayo labantu abachaphazeleke sisifo seswekile, uGqirha Mohan kunye nenkosikazi yakhe, uGqr. M. Rema, baseka iM.V. IZiko leSwekile eliZodwa, elathi kamva labizwa ngokuba liZiko likaGqirha uMohan's Specialties Centre.

"Saqala ngendlela ethobekileyo," utshilo uGqirha Mohan. Iziko livulwe ngamagumbi nje ambalwa kwipropathi eqeshiweyo, kodwa ngoku sele likhulile labandakanya amasebe angama-35 eIndiya.

"Njengokuba sithatha iiprojekthi ezinkulu nezinkulu, ngeentsikelelo zikaThixo, siyakwazi ukufumana abasebenzi abafanelekileyo ukuba basincede ekwenzeni le misebenzi kwaye le yimfihlo esisiseko yempumelelo yethu," utshilo uGqirha Mohan.

Ugqirha Mohan’s yinxalenye yothungelwano lweeklinikhi zabucala ezibonelela ngenkathalo malunga nabantu abangama-400,000 abanesifo seswekile kulo lonke elaseIndiya. Eli ziko liye laba liziko lokusebenzisana le-WHO, kwaye imisebenzi kaGqirha Mohan igubungela uluhlu olubanzi lweenkonzo zeklinikhi, uqeqesho kunye nemfundo, iinkonzo zeswekile yasemaphandleni, kunye nophando.

Ukongeza kwiiklinikhi zeswekile, uGqirha Mohan waseka iMadras Diabetes Research Foundation. Ikhulile ukuba ibe lelinye lawona maziko amakhulu ophando lweswekile e-Asia kwaye ipapashe amaphepha ophando angaphezu kwe-1,100.

UGqirha Mohan uzingca ngokuba lishishini losapho. Intombi yakhe uGqirha R.M. UAnjana kunye nomkhwenyana uGqirha Ranjit Unnikrishnan zizazi zeswekile zesizukulwana sesithathu. UGqirha Anjana ukwasebenza njengomphathi weziko, ngelixa uGqirha Unnikrishnan engusekela sihlalo.

“Inkuthazo yokusebenza kwisifo seswekile ekuqaleni ivela kutata. Emva kwexesha, inkxaso yomfazi wam kunye nesizukulwana esilandelayo yandikhuthaza ukuba sandise umsebenzi wethu ngendlela enkulu kakhulu, utshilo uGqirha Mohan.

Ukuthatha ulawulo lweSwekile yakho

Ukuthatha ulawulo lweSwekile yakho (i-TCOYD) ichazwa yimfundo, inkuthazo kunye nokuxhotyiswa. Umbutho-ophethe iinkomfa zesifo seswekile kunye neenkqubo zemfundo- yasekwa ngo-1995 ngeenjongo zokukhuthaza abantu abanesifo seswekile ukuba balawule imeko yabo.

Ukusukela ekuqaleni, uGqirha Edelman ujonge ukuyigcina ilula kwaye iyonwabisa ukuze enze isifundo esinzima sithandeke. Uburharha bakhe bemida yomda uhlala echaza amava e-TCOYD kwaye umbutho uyaqhubeka nokusebenzisa eli qhinga kwiinkomfa ezininzi nakwiindibano zocweyo, ukuqhubeka kwamathuba ezemfundo kwezonyango, kunye nezixhobo ezikwi-Intanethi.

Namhlanje, yinkokeli yesizwe ekuboneleleni ngemfundo ekumgangatho wehlabathi kwizifo zeswekile kuzo zombini izigulana kunye nabanikezeli bezempilo.

"Uninzi lwabathathi-nxaxheba kwinkomfa yethu bemka kwiminyhadala yethu benamandla amatsha okulawula imeko zabo," utshilo uJennifer Braidwood, umlawuli wentengiso we-TCOYD.

Kwi-2017, uphawu lwe-TCOYD lwandisiwe ukongeza iqonga ledijithali ukuze liziqhelanise nemeko ehlala itshintsha kwilizwe leswekile. Eli qonga lidibanisa izinto eziphilayo, ezenzeka kumntu kunye neziko lezixhobo zokumisa ezijolise kulwalamano lwedijithali.
