ʻO ka paʻi insulin akamai e hoʻololi i ka wā e hiki mai ana o ka maʻi maʻi

ʻAʻole pono paha ka poʻe maʻi me ka maʻi diabetes e hoʻomanawanui i ka ʻeha ʻeha o ka insulin me ke kōkua o kahi 'smart insulin patch' i hana ʻia e nā mea noiʻi ma ke Kulanui o North Carolina a me North Carolina State University.

ʻO ka patch aia ma luna o hoʻokahi haneli microneedles, ʻaʻole nui aʻe ma mua o ka nui o kahi maka. Loaʻa i kēia mau microneedles ʻehaʻeha nā ʻāpana, i kapa ʻia nā vesicle e hoʻokuʻu i ka insulin i ka pane ʻana i ke kiʻekiʻe o ke kō koko (a i ʻole ka glucose). Hoʻokumu ka pae koko kiʻekiʻe i kahi wahi oxygen haʻahaʻa e hoʻoulu ai i ka haki ʻana o kēia mau vesicle, hoʻokuʻu i ka insulin, e kōkua i ka mālama ʻana i nā pae glucose koko.

Ua hōʻoia ʻia ka holomua o ka 'smart insulin patch' ma kahi ʻano maʻi diabetes type 1, e like me ka mea i hōʻike ʻia ma ka Nā papahana o ka National Academy of Sciences. Ua ʻike nā mea noiʻi ʻo ka 'smart insulin patch' hoʻoponopono i nā pae glucose koko i kēia mau ʻiole no ʻeiwa hola. ʻAʻole naʻe i hoʻāʻo ʻia ka patch i ka hoʻāʻo kanaka, e like me ka mea kākau kiʻekiʻe ʻo Dr Zhen Gu, he kaukaʻi ma ka hui ʻoihana Biomedical Engineering ma UNC/NC, "He mau makahiki ia, ʻoi aku paha ma kahi o 3 a 4 mau makahiki, a hiki i nā hoʻokolohua lapaʻau." Eia nō naʻe, ʻo ka "smart insulin patch" e hōʻike ana i ka mana nui ma ke ʻano he ʻokoʻa i nā inikini insulin.

Ke ʻike ʻia nei ka maʻi maʻi maʻi ma kahi ʻano weliweli loa: Ma ka makahiki 2035, ua manaʻo ʻia ka nui o ka poʻe me ka maʻi diabetes. 592 miliona puni honua. ʻOiai ʻo ka "smart insulin patch" he mea hou i kona hoʻokokoke ʻana, hāʻawi ia i ka hāʻawi ʻana i ka insulin ma ke ʻano ʻeha ʻole a hoʻomalu ʻia. Inā ʻae ʻia no ka hoʻohana kanaka, hiki i ka "smart insulin patch" ke hoʻomaikaʻi i ka maikaʻi o ke ola a me ke olakino o nā poʻe maʻi me ka maʻi maʻi type 1 a me ke ʻano 2, ma ka hoʻomalu pono ʻana i ko lākou pae kō koko a pale aku i ka hopena koʻikoʻi o ke kō koko. haʻahaʻa loa nā pae.
