"Cholesterol nzuri" au high-density lipoprotein (HDL) inajulikana kwa faida zake za afya ya moyo. Lakini inaweza kusababisha shida nyingi za kiafya? Watafiti wanasema viwango vya juu vya HDL vinaweza kuongeza hatari ya shida ya akili.<\/p>\n

HDL nyingi au kidogo sana zinaweza kuongeza hatari ya shida ya akili, kulingana na mpya kusoma<\/a>, iliyochapishwa katika jarida la matibabu Neurology. Utafiti hauonyeshi kiungo kinachosababisha shida ya akili.<\/p>\n

Cholesterol ni dutu ya nta, kama mafuta inayotengenezwa na ini muhimu kwa kazi<\/a> kama vile usanisi wa homoni na usagaji chakula. Cholesterol husafiri kupitia aina mbili za lipoproteini katika damu: LDL (low-density lipoprotein) na HDL.<\/p>\n

Viwango vya juu vya LDL vinahusishwa na hatari ya ugonjwa wa moyo kwani hutengeneza plaques na kuziba mishipa, na kusababisha mshtuko wa moyo na kiharusi. HDL, hata hivyo, huondoa kolesteroli kupitia ini na kwa hiyo inachukuliwa kuwa yenye afya ya moyo.<\/p>\n

Timu ya utafiti ilichunguza uhusiano wa HDL cholesterol<\/a> na cholesterol ya LDL yenye shida ya akili katika kundi la washiriki 184,000, ambao hawakuwa na shida ya akili mwanzoni mwa utafiti. Umri wa wastani wa washiriki ulikuwa 70, na walifuatwa kwa miaka 17. Tabia zao za afya zilitathminiwa kwa kutumia tafiti, na viwango vya kolesteroli vilipimwa wakati wa uchunguzi wa kawaida wa afya.<\/p>\n

Wakati wa utafiti, watu 25,214 walipata shida ya akili. Kiwango cha wastani cha HDL cha washiriki kilikuwa miligramu 53.7 kwa desilita. Viwango vya afya vya HDL ni 40 mg\/dL kwa wanaume na zaidi ya 50 mg\/dL kwa wanawake. Washiriki waligawanywa katika vikundi vitano kulingana na viwango vyao vya HDL.<\/p>\n

"Watu wenye viwango vya juu vya cholesterol ya HDL walikuwa na kiwango cha juu cha 15% cha shida ya akili ikilinganishwa na wale walio katika kundi la kati. Wale walio na viwango vya chini kabisa walikuwa na kiwango cha juu cha shida ya akili 7% ikilinganishwa na wale walio katika kundi la kati," watafiti walisema katika taarifa ya habari<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Walizingatia mambo mengine kama vile matumizi ya pombe, shinikizo la damu, magonjwa ya moyo na mishipa na kisukari.<\/p>\n

Watafiti walipata tu uhusiano mdogo kati ya LDL na shida ya akili.<\/p>\n

\u201cTafiti za awali kuhusu mada hii hazikuwa na mashiko na utafiti huu ni wa kuelimisha hasa kwa sababu ya idadi kubwa ya washiriki na ufuatiliaji wa muda mrefu. Habari hii ilituruhusu kusoma uhusiano na ugonjwa wa shida ya akili katika anuwai ya viwango vya cholesterol na kufikia makadirio sahihi hata kwa watu walio na viwango vya cholesterol ambavyo ni vya juu au chini kabisa," mwandishi wa utafiti Maria Glymour, kutoka Chuo Kikuu cha Boston, alisema katika taarifa ya habari.<\/p>\n

Utafiti una mapungufu kwani utafiti ulifanywa kwa washiriki wa hiari, ambao huenda wasiwakilishi idadi kubwa zaidi ya watu.<\/p>\n

"Uhusiano kati ya cholesterol ya HDL na shida ya akili ni ngumu zaidi kuliko tulivyofikiria hapo awali. Ingawa ukubwa wa uhusiano huu ni mdogo, ni muhimu,\u201d sema<\/a> Erin Ferguson, mwandishi mkuu wa utafiti kutoka Chuo Kikuu cha California San Francisco.<\/p>\n

But can too much of it cause health issues? Researchers say extreme levels of HDL can raise the risk of dementia.Too much or too little HDL can slightly increase the risk of dementia, according to a new study, published in the medical journal Neurology. The study does not show a causative link to dementia.Cholesterol is a waxy, fat-like substance made by the liver essential for functions such as hormone synthesis and digestion. Cholesterol travels through two kinds of lipoproteins in the blood: LDL (low-density lipoprotein) and HDL.High levels of LDL are associated with the risk of heart disease as it builds up plaques and clogs the arteries, leading to heart attacks and stroke. HDL, however, flushes out cholesterol through the liver and is therefore considered to be heart-healthy.The research team studied associations of HDL cholesterol and LDL cholesterol with dementia in a group of 184,000 participants, who did not have dementia at the beginning of the study. The average age of the participants was 70, and they were followed up for 17 years. Their health behaviors were assessed using surveys, and cholesterol levels were measured during routine health checkups.During the study, 25,214 people developed dementia. The average HDL level of the participants was 53.7 milligrams per deciliter. Healthy levels of HDL are 40 mg\/dL for males and above 50 mg\/dL for females. Participants were divided into five groups based on their HDL levels."People with the highest levels of HDL cholesterol had a 15% higher rate of dementia compared to those in the middle group. Those with the lowest levels had a 7% higher rate of dementia compared to those in the middle group," the researchers said in a news release.They took into account other factors such as alcohol use, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease and diabetes.Researchers only found a slight association between LDL and dementia."Previous studies on this topic have been inconclusive and this study is especially informative because of the large number of participants and long follow-up. This information allowed us to study the links with dementia across the range of cholesterol levels and achieve precise estimates even for people with cholesterol levels that are quite high or quite low," study author Maria Glymour, from Boston University, said in the news release.The study has limitations as the survey was done on voluntary participants, which may not represent the larger population."The relationship between HDL cholesterol and dementia is more complex than we previously thought. While the magnitude of this relationship is relatively small, it's important," said Erin Ferguson, a lead author of the study from the University of California San Francisco.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/sw\/ni-kolesteroli-nzuri-yenye-afya-kabisa-utafiti-unasema-viwango-vyake-vilivyokithiri-vinaweza-kuongeza-hatari-ya-shida-ya-akili\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Urban Care Clinic\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/urbancarezanzibar\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2023-10-09T10:32:01+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/is-good-cholesterol-completely-healthy-study-says-extreme-levels-of-it-may-raise-dementia-risk.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Urban Care Clinic\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:image\" content=\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/is-good-cholesterol-completely-healthy-study-says-extreme-levels-of-it-may-raise-dementia-risk.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Urban Care Clinic\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"dakika 2\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/is-good-cholesterol-completely-healthy-study-says-extreme-levels-of-it-may-raise-dementia-risk\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/is-good-cholesterol-completely-healthy-study-says-extreme-levels-of-it-may-raise-dementia-risk\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Urban Care Clinic\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/#\/schema\/person\/f286c4d84be896d302aceda3ed7e789c\"},\"headline\":\"Is Good Cholesterol Completely Healthy?
