Luchar Contra la Adicción al Tabaco. Reporte del Cirujano General 50 Aniversario

Las  Asociaciones  Médicas Nicaragüenses  nos preparamos  para celebrar  el  31  de mayo:    
                       Día  Mundial  sin Tabaco.
Desde  nuestra  clínica,  proponemos  a la  Asociación  Nicaragüense de Neumología,  celebrar   el  Día  Mensual  sin Tabaco,  el último día  de  cada mes.
Esperamos  que esta iniciativa  la  hagan  suya, las  asociaciones médicas y toda la sociedad  civil interesada en  hacer respetar la ley vigente y la  constitución de la República que defiende la vida.
 Nuestro país debe mostrar  firmeza,   para luchar  contra las  compañías  que envenenan  a nuestra juventud.

Los  legisladores  deben  actualizar las leyes  y nuestro  gobierno   hacerlas  cumplir.

El CDC,  festeja  el 50  Aniversario del Reporte del Cirujano  General  ,  "Consecuencias para la  Salud   de Fumar".

Una  Nota  Final:

Talvez  la  idea   de  una sociedad  libre de humo sea una utopía.  

Sin  embargo ,   ya logramos  el  Día Mundial sin Tabaco.

 Trabajemos para lograr   El  Día  del   Mes Sin Tabaco ,

  y luego lograremos  

El Día de la Semana Mundial Sin Tabaco.

¿ Que hay de valioso que no sea difícil de alcanzar ? ,
 el generoso legislador Séneca con razón decía: 

“ No es que nos falte valor para emprender las cosas porque sean   difíciles , sino que son difíciles porque nos falta valor para emprenderlas ”.

Abstract   Artículo  completo  .pdf

Industrialized society currently faces a wide range of non-infectious, immune-related pandemics. These pandemics include a variety of autoimmune, inflammatory, and allergic diseases that are often associated with common environmental triggers and with genetic predisposition, but that do not occur in developing societies. In this review, we briefly present the idea that these pandemics are due to a limited number of evolutionary mismatches, the most damaging being “biome depletion”. This particular mismatch involves the loss of species from the ecosystem of the human body, the human biome, many of which have traditionally been classified as parasites, although some may actually be commensal or even mutualistic. This view, evolved from the “hygiene hypothesis”, encompasses a broad ecological and evolutionary perspective that considers host-symbiont relations as plastic, changing through ecological space and evolutionary time. Fortunately, this perspective provides a blueprint, termed “biome reconstitution”, for disease treatment and especially for disease prevention. Biome reconstitution includes the controlled and population-wide reintroduction (i.e., domestication) of selected species that have been all but eradicated from the human biome in industrialized society, and holds great promise for the elimination of pandemics of allergic, inflammatory, and autoimmune diseases.

 The Th2 immune response, culminating in eosinophilia and IgE production, is not only characteristic of allergy but also of infection by parasitic worms (helminths). Anti-parasite IgE has been associated with immunity against a range of helminth infections and many believe that IgE and its receptors evolved to help counter metazoan parasites....
