Si te extirparon la apéndice El riesgo de párkinson puede ser 20% menor

(CNN) – Puede ser doloroso, pero la apendicitis puede tener un efecto inusual: a quienes se les ha extirpado esa parte del intestino tienen un 20% menos de probabilidades de desarrollar la enfermedad de Parkinson, según un nuevo estudio  hecho con más de un millón de personas en Suecia.

El pequeño órgano, que está unido y se abre hacia el extremo inferior del intestino grueso, puede contribuir a este trastorno cerebral que afecta a casi un millón de estadounidenses, según los investigadores. El estudio fue publicado este miércoles en la revista Science Translational Medicine.

«La enfermedad de Parkinson es un trastorno multisistémico», dijo Viviane Labrie, autora principal del estudio y profesora asistente en el Instituto de Investigación Van Andel, en Michigan. «Y, por lo tanto, es probable que haya muchos sitios de origen en términos de donde comienza la enfermedad de Parkinson, el tracto gastrointestinal es uno de ellos. Para otras personas, puede comenzar en el cerebro», indica.

«No solo es un trastorno del movimiento»

La enfermedad de Parkinson no solo es común, con 60.000 diagnósticos nuevos cada año, también es incurable. Los síntomas incluyen movimientos involuntarios, temblores de los dedos, manos, piernas o pies; rigidez; dificultad para equilibrar; depresión; y trastornos gastrointestinales incluyendo estreñimiento. Las investigaciones han demostrado que los síntomas gastrointestinales pueden comenzar hasta 20 años antes que los síntomas del movimiento.

«En la última década, se ha hecho evidente que la enfermedad de Parkinson no es solo un trastorno del movimiento», dijo Labrie en un podcast. Uno de los síntomas no motores más comunes del párkinson son los problemas del tracto gastrointestinal, por lo que algunos científicos creen que el trastorno podría comenzar allí, dijo. De hecho, el apéndice contiene una proteína, alfa-sinucleína, que, se sabe, se acumula o se agrupa en el cerebro de los pacientes de párkinson, anotó.

El apéndice guardaría una relación con la enfermedad de PArkinson.

En busca de conexiones entre el párkinson y el apéndice, Labrie y sus colegas analizaron datos médicos de 1,6 millones de personas en Suecia. Según los investigadores, esta encuesta de población general mostró que la realización de una apendicectomía está relacionada con una reducción del riesgo del 19,3% de desarrollar la enfermedad de Parkinson.

Por separado, examinaron los registros de 849 pacientes con párkinson y hallaron que una apendicectomía se asoció con el inicio tardío del trastorno en un promedio de 3,6 años.

«La alfa-sinucleína es una proteína capaz de moverse de una neurona a otra, y se ha demostrado que puede viajar», dijo Labrie. Potencialmente, la proteína puede viajar por el nervio vago que conecta el tracto gastrointestinal y el cerebro.

«Si fuera a ingresar al cerebro, puede sembrarse y propagarse desde allí y tener efectos neurotóxicos que podrían conducir a la enfermedad de Parkinson», dijo.

El estudio ganó el aplauso de algunos y las críticas de otros.

Expertos recomiendan: No se someta a una apendicectomía para protegerse del párkinson

James Beck, director científico de la Fundación de Parkinson y profesor adjunto en el Departamento de Neurociencia y Fisiología de la Escuela de Medicina de la Universidad de Nueva York, dijo que el nuevo estudio es «sólido».

Aunque la investigación muestra que el trastorno «puede comenzar en el intestino», dijo, «no es un indicio de que las personas deban someterse a una apendicectomía si están preocupadas por la enfermedad de Parkinson».

Kevin McConway, profesor emérito de Estadística Aplicada en la Open University del Reino Unido, dijo al Science Media Center que el estudio es «competente», pero también realizó una crítica al uso de estadísticas por parte de los investigadores.

«Las personas a las que se les removió el apéndice en la vida temprana se diferenciarán, en promedio, de las personas que no lo hicieron, de varias maneras», dijo McConway, quien no participó en la investigación. «Cualquiera de estas diferencias podría ser la causa de la disminución del riesgo de enfermedad de Parkinson en aquellos que tuvieron su apéndice y no la extirpación del apéndice».

Dijo que «no es el caso que la causa y el efecto se hayan establecido más allá de toda duda» en el estudio.

    I became homeless playing poker Hall of Fame Of course, the most difficult part of translating Texas Hold ‘em to the non-meatspace is getting opponent tells onto the screen. Even though you can’t see the faces of people in Governor of Poker 2, players often give clues if they’re bluffing, if they’re frazzled, or if they’re about to be in trouble. You can start to pick up on their personalities after some time, allowing you to call opponents out when you know they have a habit of bluffing. The subtle tells aren’t a huge part of the game, but they’re there, and poker fans will definitely appreciate it. this is also an AS2 game which could possibly work fine. I always enjoyed the game and played hours over hours. Sadly the game pauses all the time. Maybe you can fix it soon рџ‘Ќ this is also an AS2 game which could possibly work fine.

  2. Several fixes and updates A game-based learning platform supporting thousands of educators in over 100 countries. Hi-Fi Rush is the kind of game that plays better on gamepad controls than a mouse and keyboard, so it always had the chance of being a great Steam Deck game. That chance becomes a certainty with its easygoing performance, allowing Medium quality to run at a nearly constant 60fps and High quality to rock n’ roll along at 45fps or more.

  3. That being said, buying and selling isn’t the only way expats approach this digital currency. In some cases, you may choose to trade one cryptocurrency for another. Suppose you originally purchased $200 worth of one cryptocurrency, now valued at $1,000. If you choose to trade it for another cryptocurrency, your capital gains would be $800. How long you held the initial crypto you bought before trading it for another would determine whether short-term or long-term capital gains tax is applied. You must report any capital gain or capital loss from the sale of your cryptocurrencies. That will be determined by the difference — in US dollars — between how much you paid when buying them and how much you received when you sold them. If you hold your cryptocurrency for 12 months or less before selling it for another crypto, NFT, or FIAT (e.g., USD), you’d be taxed at a short-term capital gains tax rate. This short-term tax rate can range from 10% to 37% depending on your personal situation (e.g.,total taxable income, filing status etc.).

    Other crypto-focused asset managers are also charging a relative premium. The second-highest published fee is from the Hashdex Bitcoin ETF (DEFI), which is a strategy change of an existing bitcoin futures fund, at 0.94%. Valkyrie was planning to charge 0.49% for its fund BRRR, though it dropped the fee to 0.25% just before launch. Valkyrie is also offering a temporary fee waiver.

An important note: As someone new to crypto, you’ll want to make sure your exchange or brokerage of choice allows fiat currency transfers and purchases made with U.S. dollars. Some exchanges only allow you to buy crypto using another crypto, meaning you’d have to find another exchange to buy the tokens your preferred exchange accepts before you could begin trading crypto on that platform.
