13 Paenga-whāwhā, 2026 – Mō te neke atu i te rautau, ko te insulin te tūāpapa o te whakahaere mate huka, e huri ana i tētahi mate i mate ai i mua hei mate mau tonu e taea te whakahaere. I kitea i te tau 1921 e Frederick Banting rāua ko Charles Best, ā, mai i taua wā kua ora miriona tāngata puta noa i te ao i tēnei homoni.

Ka hangaia te insulin e ngā pūtau beta i roto i te repeure. He kī tēnei, e iriti ana i ngā pūtau kia uru te hukahuka mai i te toto ki roto, kia whakamahia hei pūngao. Mō te hunga mate huka momo 1, ka whakangaromia e te pūnaha ārai mate ēnei pūtau beta, ā, ka kore e taea e te tinana te whakaputa insulin. Ko te hunga mate huka momo 2 ka kore pea e nui te insulin e whakaputaina, ka ātete rānei ki ōna pānga, ka hua ake he taumata huka toto tino teitei.

Ki te kore he rongoā insulin, ka pāngia te hunga mate huka momo 1 e ngā raruraru morearea pērā i te diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), ka pakaru te ngako hei wahie, ka puta he waikawa paitini e kiia nei ko ngā ketones. Ka taea hoki e te huka toto tiketike mau tonu te arahi ki te ngoikore o te whatukuhu, te matapo, te kino o ngā io, me te mate ngakau.

Kua kitea ngā auahatanga whakamiharo i roto i ngā tau 20 kua pahure ake nei i roto i te tuku insulin. Inaianei ka hono atu ngā pene insulin atamai ki ngā taupānga pūkoro, ka aroturuki i ngā horopeta me te tuku whakamaumahara. Ka whakaratohia e ngā aroturuki huka toto tonu (CGM) ngā pānui huka toto i te wā tūturu, e whakatūpato ana i ngā kaiwhakamahi ki ngā taumata tiketike me ngā taumata iti morearea. Ka whakarerekē aunoa ngā pūnaha ranu kati-porowhita, e mōhiotia ana ko te hangarau repe taikaha horihori, i te tuku insulin i runga i ngā raraunga CGM, ka whakaiti nui i te taumahatanga hinengaro o te whakatau tonu.

Heoi anō, kei te mau tonu te wehewehenga nui o te ao. Ahakoa he mea noa ngā momo insulin hou me ngā papu hou i roto i ngā whenua whai rawa, he maha tonu ngā whenua whai rawa iti me waenga e raru ana ki te uru atu ki te insulin tangata tino taketake. E ai ki te World Health Organization, tata ki te haurua o te hunga katoa e hiahia ana ki te insulin puta noa i te ao kāore e taea te whiwhi, te utu rānei. Nā te utu nui—ina koa i ngā whenua pēnei i te United States—kua hua ake te whakarōpūtanga, me ngā hua kino.

Kei te haere tonu ngā mahi hei whakakī i tēnei āputa. Kei te whakawhānui ake ngā whakahaere kore-moni pēnei i a Life for a Child me ngā kaihanga insulin i ngā kaupapa koha. Kei te uru atu ngā biosimilar insulin whānui ki ngā mākete, me te tuku i ngā huarahi rerekē he iti ake te utu.

I a ngā kairangahau e tūhura ana i ngā insulin roa-mahi, ngā whakatakotoranga atamai e aro ana ki te huka, tae atu ki ngā whakawhitinga pūtau beta kua whakakīia, he pai te heke mai. Heoi, ki te kore he urunga tika, kāore e taea e te tini te whakatutuki i te merekara o te insulin. Ko te Rā Mate Huka o te Ao, e whakanuia ana i ia tau i te 14 o Noema, kei te akiaki tonu i te "Insulin for All" - he whāinga e tere ana i ēnei rā pērā i te 105 tau ki muri.
