Utafiti wa hivi majuzi umefichua kuwa watumiaji wa bangi huonyesha viwango vya juu vya madini ya risasi na cadmium katika damu na mkojo wao, jambo linalozua wasiwasi kuhusu hatari zinazoweza kuhusishwa na kufichuliwa kwa metali hizi zinazoweza kudhuru.<\/p>\n

Utafiti uliofanywa katika Chuo Kikuu cha Columbia Mailman School of Public Health ni mojawapo ya utafiti wa mapema zaidi kurekodi uwepo wa alama za chuma kwa watu wanaotumia bangi na kuna uwezekano kuwa ni utafiti wa kina zaidi uliofanywa hadi sasa ambao unaunganisha unywaji wa bangi unaoripotiwa na vipimo halisi vya mfiduo wa chuma ndani ya mwili, Habari za Matibabu<\/a> taarifa.<\/p>\n

Matokeo ya utafiti yanaonyesha tofauti kubwa katika viwango vya chuma kati ya watumiaji wa bangi na wasio watumiaji. "Ikilinganishwa na wasiotumia, watumiaji wa bangi walikuwa na viwango vya juu vya 27% vya risasi katika damu yao, na viwango vya juu vya 21% kwenye mkojo wao," mwandishi mkuu wa utafiti Tiffany Sanchez, ambaye ni profesa wa sayansi ya afya ya mazingira katika Shule ya Mailman ya Afya ya Umma ya Chuo Kikuu cha Columbia. katika Jiji la New York, aliiambia CNN<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Viwango vya Cadmium vilikuwa juu zaidi katika damu ya watumiaji wa bangi, karibu 22% juu kuliko wale wanaoizuia, Sanchez alisema. Watumiaji bangi waliripotiwa kuwa na viwango vya juu vya 18% vya cadmium kwenye mkojo wao kuliko wale waliojinyima.<\/p>\n

"Cadmium na risasi hukaa kwenye mwili wako kwa muda mrefu," Sanchez alisema. "Cadmium humezwa kwenye mfumo wa figo na kuchujwa kupitia figo. Kwa hivyo, unapoangalia cadmium ya mkojo, hiyo ni onyesho la jumla ya mzigo wa mwili, ni kiasi gani umechukua kwa muda mrefu wa mfiduo sugu.<\/p>\n

Utafiti huo ulichambua data kutoka kwa Utafiti wa Kitaifa wa Afya na Lishe (NHANES) wa 2005-2018, ukilenga washiriki 7,254. Waliweka watumiaji katika vikundi kama vile wasiotumia bangi\/wasio tumbaku, bangi ya kipekee, tumbaku ya kipekee na watumiaji wawili. Sampuli za damu na mkojo zilijaribiwa kwa metali. Zaidi ya hayo, watafiti walifafanua matumizi ya bangi na tumbaku kwa kutumia vigezo kama vile uvutaji sigara wa sasa, viwango vya serum cotinine, utumiaji wa bangi unaoripotiwa na matumizi ya hivi majuzi.<\/p>\n

Matumizi ya pekee ya tumbaku inamaanisha kuwa mtu alitumia tu tumbaku na hakuvuta sigara nyingine yoyote. Ili kuangalia ikiwa mtu alikuwa mtumiaji wa kipekee wa tumbaku, waliwauliza washiriki ikiwa walivuta sigara au kupima dutu inayoitwa kotini katika miili yao. Ikiwa kiwango cha cotinine kilikuwa cha juu kuliko 10, ilimaanisha kuwa walikuwa wakitumia tumbaku.<\/p>\n

Cadmium inahusishwa na ugonjwa wa figo na saratani ya mapafu kwa watu na upungufu wa fetusi kwa wanyama, kulingana na EPA<\/a>, ambayo imeweka mipaka maalum ya cadmium. Kama risasi, inaweza kujilimbikiza kwa muda, na kusababisha uharibifu usioweza kurekebishwa kwa ukuaji wa ubongo, figo na mfumo wa neva, Kliniki ya Mayo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

"Mbele, utafiti juu ya matumizi ya bangi na vichafuzi vya bangi, haswa metali, unapaswa kufanywa ili kushughulikia maswala ya afya ya umma yanayohusiana na kuongezeka kwa idadi ya watumiaji wa bangi," Sanchez aliiambia News-Medical.<\/p>\n
