Ucwaningo luye lwabonisa ukuthi ukubhema kunomthelela omkhulu emfuthweni wegazi. Ukubhema kungaholela kumfutho wegazi ophakeme. Ngemuva kokubhema ugwayi, izinga lokushaya kwenhliziyo likhuphuka ngamahlandla ayi-5 kuye kwangama-20 ngomzuzu, kanye nengcindezi yegazi ye-systolic inyuka ngo-10 kuye ku-25 mmHG.
Ezigulini ezingenakulashwa nge-hypertension, umfutho wegazi wamahora angama-24 uphakeme kunalokho ongabhemi, ikakhulukazi umfutho wegazi wobusuku uhlobene ngqo ne-hypertrophy yesobunxele, okusho ukuthi, ukubhema kuzodala ukwanda komfutho wegazi futhi kube nemiphumela emibi enhliziyweni.
Ngoba ugwayi netiye kuqukethe i-nicotine, eyaziwa nangokuthi i-nicotine, engavusa izinzwa eziphakathi nendawo kanye nozwela ukusheshisa ukushaya kwenhliziyo. Ngasikhathi sinye, futhi inxusa i-adrenal gland ukukhipha inani elikhulu le-catecholamines, okwenza i-arterioles isebenze, okuholele ekukhuphukeni komfutho wegazi. I-nicotine nayo ingavusa amakhemikhali emithanjeni yegazi futhi iveze amandla okucindezela kwegazi.
Uma abantu benomfutho wegazi ophakeme bayaqhubeka bebhema, kuzolimaza okukhulu. Ngoba ukubhema kungadala ngokuqondile ukulimala kwemithambo, lokhu kuqinisekisile ngokucacile ezifundweni zemitholampilo. Ukubhema kuzodala ukumamatheka kwe-arterial ngenxa ye-nicotine, i-tar kanye nezinye izinto eziyingozi kugwayi, okungukuthi, kuzoba nomonakalo wokuvama we-artterial. Ngomonakalo we-arterial uvana, kuzokwakheka i-aroque ye-atherosclerotic. Ngemuva kokwakheka okuqhubekayo kwezilonda zokuphazamisa, kuzothinta ukukhishwa nokuphumula kwemithambo yegazi ejwayelekile. Uma isiguli sihlushwa umfutho wegazi ophakeme futhi sinomkhuba wokubhema, kuzosheshisa inqubekela phambili ye-atherosclerosis.
Ukubhema kanye ne-Hypertension kungokwezingozi ezibalulekile zobungozi bezifo zenhliziyo kanye nezifo ze-cerebrovascular. Lapho i-atherosclerotic plaque iqhubeka, i-vascular stenosis izosobala kakhulu, okuholele ekunikezelweni kwegazi okunganele ezitho ezihambisanayo. Ukulimala okukhulu kakhulu yi-atherosclerotic plaque, engahle iholele ekuweni kwe-plaque engazinzile, okuholela emicimbini ye-thrombotic ebukhali, efana ne-cerebral infarction kanye ne-infarction ye-myocardial. Ukubhema kuzobuye kube nomthelela emfutho wegazi ophakeme, ngoba kuzothinta ukuphumula nokugculiseka kwemithambo yegazi, okwenza kube nzima ukulawula umfutho wegazi, kanye nokuphakama okubukhali kwengcindezi yegazi. Ngakho-ke, kuphakanyiswa ukuthi iziguli ezinomfutho wegazi ophakeme nokubhema kufanele zizame ukuyeka ukubhema.
I-World Health Organisation inqume ukucacisa ngoMeyi 31 wonyaka ngamunye njengoba umhlaba ungowami ugwayi, futhi iChina ibuye nayo lolu suku njengoba lusuku lwe-China no lukagwayi. Usuku lokubhema luhlose ukukhumbuza umhlaba ukuthi ukubhema kuyingozi empilweni, shayela ababhemayo emhlabeni wonke ukuthi bayeke ukubhema, futhi shayela wonke umphakathi wamazwe omhlaba ukuze uhlanganyele emkhankasweni wokubhema ugwayi wokudala isintu.
Okwamanje, kufanele sinake kakhulu Ukuqapha umfutho wegazi empilweni yethu yansuku zonke. Manje amadivaysi amaningi wezokwelapha asekhaya anomklamo olula futhi ukusetshenziswa okulula kungena kancane kancane izinkulungwane zamakhaya. Umfutho we-digital wedijithali wedijithali kuzoba ukukhetha okungcono kuwe ukunakekela impilo yakho.
