I-Arteriosclerosis ibonakala ngokuqina, ukuqina kanye ukulahlekelwa ukuqina kwezindonga zomthambo. I-atherosclerosis iyingozi engcupheni yenhliziyo futhi iyindlela ye-arteriosclerosis.

I-Arteriosclerosis iyi- uhlobo lwe-sclerosis lokho kwenzeka emithanjeni. Ngamanye amagama, kusho ukuthi ibonakala nge ukuqina, ukuqina, nokulahleka kokuqina kwezindonga zomthambo.

I-Arteriosclerosis ivame ukuchazwa njenge into yemvelo ehambisana nobudala ngokuqina okujwayelekile kodonga lwemithambo.

Noma kunjalo, ucwaningo oluningi lukhombisile nokuthi lokhu kuqina kodonga kungasheshiswa ngu ukuphazamiseka okuthile kwenhliziyo. Ukufakwa kancane kancane kwama-lipids ezingeni lodonga lwemithambo kungaba yimbangela yalokhu ukuqina nokuqina. Kulokhu, sikhuluma kaningi ngeatherosclerosis maqondana ne-atheroma, echaza uqweqwe olunamafutha olwakhiwe.

Yize i-arteriosclerosis ichazwa abanye abacwaningi njengesimo esijwayelekile esihlobene ne- ukuguga, le sclerosis emithanjeni ingathandwa yizici eziningi kufaka phakathi:

• izici zofuzo ;
• ukuphazamiseka komzimba ;
• imikhuba emibi yokudla ;
• ukuntuleka kokuvivinya umzimba ;
• ezinye izingcindezi.

Ngenxa yezimbangela zayo eziningi, i-arteriosclerosis ingathinta abantu abaningi. Phakathi kwabantu abasengozini enkulu, singahlukanisa ikakhulukazi:

• abantu abadala ;
• abantu abanomsebenzi omncane noma ongenawo nhlobo ;
• abantu abakhuluphele ngokweqile ;
• abantu abane-dyslipidemia njenge-hyperlipidemia ne-hypercholesterolemia;
• abantu abanesifo sikashukela ;
• abantu abane-hypertension, okungukuthi ngomfutho wegazi ophakeme;
• ababhemayo.

I-Arteriosclerosis ingahlala ingabonakali iminyaka eminingana. Kodwa-ke, ezimweni ezibucayi kakhulu, kungenzeka ukuvimba imithambo kubalulekile ekusebenzeni kahle komzimba njengemithambo yegazi kanye nemithambo ye-carotid. Kubangela ukungasebenzi kahle komoya-mpilo, ukuvinjelwa kwale mithambo kungaholela ku:

• un i-infarction ye-myocardial ;
• un unhlangothi ;
• a ama-arteritis obliterans wezitho ezingezansi (PADI).

I-Arteriosclerosis ingahlala ingabonakali noma izibonakalise ngezimpawu ezahlukahlukene. Lokhu kuncike emithanjeni ethinteka yi-sclerosis.

I-arteriosclerosis ingadala imbangela ethile:

• ubuhlungu bendawo, ikakhulukazi lapho unyakaza noma esifubeni kwenzeka i-angina, noma i-angina pectoris;
• i-arrhythmia yenhliziyo, engahlotshaniswa nomfutho wegazi ophakeme;
• imoto kanye / noma ukusilela kwezinzwa ezingalweni ezingenhla nezingezansi;
• ukuhlukaniswa ngezikhathi ezithile;
• ukuphazamiseka kombono;
• ukuphelelwa umoya;
• isiyezi.

Ukuvimbela i-arteriosclerosis kuqukethe izinto ezinobungozi ezifana nemikhuba emibi yokudla nempilo yokuhlala phansi. Ngalokhu, kunconywa ukuthi:

• yamukele ukudla okunempilo nokunokulinganisela ngokunciphisa ukusetshenziswa kwemikhiqizo egayiwe kanye namafutha amaningi, ushukela notshwala;
• zijwayeza ukuzivocavoca umzimba njalo.

Ukuvimbela ukwenzeka kwe-arteriosclerosis, kuyalulekwa futhi ukuthi kugcinwe ukubhekwa njalo kwezokwelapha. Lokhu kufanele ikakhulukazi kufaka ibhalansi ye-lipid ukuhlaziya amazinga egazi we-cholesterol ephelele, i-cholesterol ye-HDL, i-cholesterol ye-LDL ne-triglycerides. Ukuqapha isisindo nokucindezelwa kwegazi nakho kunconywa ukunciphisa ubungozi bezinkinga.

Ukwelashwa kwe-arteriosclerosis kuya ngemvelaphi yayo, inkambo nobukhali bayo.

Ukwelashwa kwezidakamizwa kungacatshangelwa ikakhulukazi uma kwenzeka i-arteriosclerosis. Ngokuyinhloko, odokotela banganquma:

• izidakamizwa eziphikisana nomfutho wegazi ophakeme;
• izimiso zomthetho;
• izidakamizwa ze-antiplatelet.

Ukwelashwa kungahlinzwa uma i-arteriosclerosis isongela impilo. Inhloso yokuhlinzwa ukubuyisa ukujikeleza kwegazi lapho imithambo yegazi noma ye-carotid ivinjiwe. Ngokuya ngecala, ukusebenza kungaba isibonelo:

• i-angioplasty yokwandisa ububanzi bemithambo yegazi;
• i-endarterectomy ukususa uqweqwe lwe-atheromatous olwakhiwe emithanjeni ye-carotid;
• ukuhlinzwa kwe-coronary bypass ukudlula imithambo evinjiwe
