Long pej ya (7 seksen)
Lus blong harem i kamaot long ol yia we man i old, mo ol risej oli tekem i serius olsem wan risk fakta long dementia. Hemia i no mekem ear heping i wan pruvem we i save pruvent dementia; best stadi we i stap yet i gat mikis risalt. Pej ia i eksplenem wanem ol risej i soem, hao blong jekem harem, wanem ear heping we yu save baem withaot presripsin long USA, mo hao blong mekem toktok i isi moa.
Why harem i impoten long gud blong tingting?
Lus blong harem i gat konekson wetem moa risk blong dementia. Lancet Commission long 2024 i tingim se hemia i kosem bout 7% blong dementia long wol. Hemia i stap sem wetem hae LDL koleste long bigfala sea long ol 14 risk fakta we yu save jenisim long model blong Commission, olsem samri blong UCL long ripot ia i talem.
Ol main poing blong Commission:
- Moa risk taem harem i lus. Long wan analisis we oli putum ol sikisfala gud stadi i stap wantaem, ol man we oli no save harem gud oli gat sopos 37% moa risk blong dementia long ol man we oli save harem gud.
- Moa lus, moa risk. Ol stadi we oli lukluk long hao bigfala lus i stap, oli faenem se risk i go antap taem harem i kam wes.
- Ol posibol reason, we oli no pruvem yet. Ol aedia i inkludim lonlines mo withdrawal, sik blong hed, les stimiuleson long brain, mo ekstra tingting we listening i nidim.
Lus blong harem i komon. National Institute on Aging (NIA) i talem se bout wan-thrid blong ol olfala i gat hem, mo jans i go antap wetaem man i old.
Wanem ACHIEVE ear heping stadi i faenem?
ACHIEVE i wan fastfala randomized stadi blong ear heping mo lus blong tingting i wok. Ol risalt oli oftenem ol man i tok rong long hem, so hia ol detail blong ripot we oli pablisim.
- Hu oli joen: 977 adalt we oli 70 i go 84 yia, we oli gat lus blong harem we oli no tritim yet mo oli no gat bigfala tingting prablem, long fo komuniti sait long USA.
- Wanem oli kompare: Hafples oli kisim ear heping plus sesen blong toktok wetem wan odiolojis. Narafala hafples oli kisim wan program blong health edukeson abaot helti olfala laef.
- Main risalt: Afta tri yia, i no gat no defren long lus blong tingting long tufala grup oltogeta.
- Risalt long smol grup: Stadi ia i karem ol man from tufala sos. 238 man i kam from wan longfala heart helti stadi (ARIC), mo long grup ia oli gat moa risk blong lus blong tingting. Long grup ia, lus i 48% i slow moa taem oli yusum ear heping. Long 739 ol volantia long komuniti we oli helti, i no gat klia efek.
Wei blong ridim ol risalt ia onestli:
- Ensa blong ol man i talem nogat efek.
- Risalt long smol grup i bin plan finis, bat hemia i kam from wan sekondri analisis long smol grup. I nidim konfemem long ol narafala stadi.
- Ol man oli save wanem program oli stap long hem, mo hemia i save jenisim risalt.
- Lancet Commission i ridim ol pruf olsem ear heping i showem se oli save helpem spesel long ol man we oli gat lus blong harem wetem ol narafala risk fakta blong dementia.
Bottom line, ear heping i no wan pruvem we i save pruvent dementia. Bat oli helpem ol man blong harem, joen long toktok mo stap konektem, mo hemia i gud rison blong tingim olgeta.
Hao blong save sipos harem i nidim jekem?
NIA i sajestem blong luk dokta sipos yu o man we yu kea long hem:
- I gat trabol blong save wanem man i tok long fon
- I hard blong folem toktok taem tu no tri man oli tok wantaem
- I oftenem askem ol man blong tok bakegen
- I tanem TV i hae tumas kasem ol narafala oli kompleni

Stat wetem primary care dokta, we save referem yu long wan odiolojis (wan spesialis blong harem) o long wan ear, nose and throat dokta. Ear wax we i kakae gud long ear i wan komon kot blong lus blong harem we dokta save jekem. Lus blong harem we i kamaot kwik i wan medikol emeejensi, mo NIA i advaesem blong luk dokta long hem wan taem.
Lus blong harem i save mekem man i lukem olsem confused.

Sipos man we yu lavem i seem i withdraw o i no save wanem we oli tok, jekem harem i wan gud step blong stat erly.
Wanem ol ear heping we yu save baem withaot presripsin?
Long 17 Oktoba 2022, FDA i alaoem wan kaetegori blong ear heping we yu save baem withaot presripsin (OTC). Hia i wei we oli defren from ol ear heping we oli kam withaot presripsin:
| Fitsa | OTC ear heping | Ear heping we i nidim presripsin |
|---|---|---|
| Hu oli blong hem | Adalt 18 yia o moa, we oli feel lus blong harem i smol i kasem middle | Eni level blong lus blong harem, eni eij |
| Wea blong kisim | Long stoa o long intanet, i no nidim ekzam o presripsin | Thru wan lisensed harem profesenal |
| Fitting | Yu jenisim seting yu wan, ofen wetem wan app | Wan profesenal i setem blong harem blong yu |
FDA i talem se ol OTC ear heping i no blong ol lus blong harem we i bigfala tumas. Hem i advaesem blong luk dokta, saksesem long wan ear, nose and throat spesialis, bifo yu baem sipos yu gat:

Yu mas wok long tingting blong ol ear heping, so jekem ol rul blong refanem ben bifo yu baem, olsem FDA i sajestem. NIA i sajestem blong askem long insiuransi blong yu sipos i kavremap wan pat blong kost. Long man we i laef wetem dementia, wan odiolojis i save helpem blong jusum wanem kaen ear heping mo fitting we bae i isi blong yusum long ol dei.
Hao blong mi save tok isi moa wetem man we i gat lus blong harem?
NIA i sajestem:
- Fesem man ia mo kipim ae blong yu long hem, long gud laet, blong hem i save lukem lip mo fes blong yu.
- Faenem wan kwaet ples. Stopem TV o go longwe from nois.

Ol tip ia i wok gud wetem ol tip blong toktok long dementia blong yumi. Ol aktiviti we i yusum ol piksa i tu i mekem harem i no stap hevi. Picture Pairs mo Conversation Cards oli wakem long wanem yu luk, mo Finish the Saying i lolo yu blong soem vos we i finis, i no nidim talem. Long kol, lukem gaed blong yumi abaot fon mo video kol.
Lukluk i impoten tu
Long 2024, Lancet Commission i putum lus blong luk we i no bin tritim olsem wan niufala risk fakta. Samri blong UCL i talem se hemia i kosem bout 2% blong ol kes blong dementia, mo Commission i advaesem blong mekem skrining mo trit blong ol prablem blong luk i stap long evri man. NIA i advaesem wan dilated ae exam evri yia o evri tu yia afta 60 yia, mo tu blong jekem ol glas presripsin. Ol smol jenis long luk i save mekem risk blong foldaon i go antap.
Toktok wetem dokta
Askem dokta abaot jekem harem mo luk sipos yu luk wan long ol saen we i stap abave. Go luk medikol help kwik sipos i gat sudden lus blong harem, pen long ear, o wota we i kamaot long ear. Sipos yu kea long man we i laef wetem dementia, talem dokta blong hem abaot jenis long harem o luk, from oli save jenisim fil, sef, mo hao man ia i save joen long ol samting.

Ol kwestin we plante man i askem
Eas ear heping i save pruvent dementia?
I no bin pruvem yet. ACHIEVE stadi i no faenem wan bigfala jenis long tingting i wok lus long tri yia, bat wan grup we i gat moa risk i bin gat gud risalt. Yu stap save tingim ear heping bikos oli helpem long toktok, long seftiwan mo long laef blong ol dei.
Hu i save baem ear heping long stoa no presripsin?
FDA i alaoem ol adalt we oli 18 yia o olsem, we oli feel lus blong harem i smol i kasem middle, blong baem ear heping long stoa o long intanet withaot presripsin. Oli no mekem bilong lus blong harem we i bigfala tumas. Sipos yu gat pen long ear, wota we i kamaot long ear, dizi o sudden jenis long harem, yu mas go lukaotem dokta fastaem.
Ka lus blong harem i save lukem olsem dementia?
Sam taem, yes. National Institute on Aging i talem se ol olfala we oli no save harem gud, sam taem ol man oli tingting wrong se oli confused o oli no wantem tok. Chekem harem i wan gud step taem wan man i seem i withdraw o i no save wanem we oli tok.
