Aluminum phosphide (AlP) is a solid fumigant widely used in Iran as grain preservative. When reacted with water or acids, AIP produces phosphine gas, mitochondrial poison that interferes oxidative phosphorylation and protein synthesis. Poisoning by one of the most important causes fatal chemical toxicity Iran. There are few studies medical literature addressing prognostic factors associated AlP poisoning. In this prospective study conducted across 14-month period commencing on 21st March...

Acute poisoning is a common chief complaint leading to emergency department visits and hospital admissions in developing countries such as Iran. Data describing the epidemiology of different poisonings, characteristics clinical presentations, predictors outcome are lacking. Such data can help develop more efficient preventative management strategies decrease morbidity mortality related these poisonings. This manuscript describes acute among patients admitted intensive care unit (ICU)...

Lead, one of the most widely used metals because its beneficial physical properties, has been reported to adversely influence several different organs and organ systems. The aim present study was examine effect lead exposure on liver renal function haematologic parameters.This a case-cohort comparing adults with occupational, environmental or opium-related blood levels [BLL] >10 μg/dL (High level (HBLL) group age- gender-matched normal healthy individuals (Low [LBLL] BLL <10 μg/dL). complete...

Aluminium phosphide (AlP) is a toxic agent associated with high mortality rate following acute exposure from various routes. The aim of this study was to determine the clinical and laboratory findings useful for predicting medical outcome AlP-poisoned patients using established scoring systems. This prospective 2010 2015 in Ardabil, Iran. All that presented confirmed diagnosis AlP poisoning interval were included study. Clinical data, Acute Physiology Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE...

Aluminum phosphide (AlP) is used as a fumigant. It produces phosphine gas, which mitochondrial poison. Unfortunately, there no known antidote for AlP intoxication, and also, are few data about its prognostic factors.The aim of this study was to determine the impact Simplified Acute Physiology Score II (SAPS ) in prediction outcome patients with acute poisoning requiring admission Intensive Care Unit (ICU).This prospective poisoning, admitted ICU over period 12 months. The demographic were...

Atherogenic dyslipidemia, characterized by an increased level of lipoprotein (a) and a decreased adiponectin, is major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases in diabetic patients. To reduce patients, use agents with antidiabetic anti-atherogenic potential required. Using animal model diabetes, we investigated the antiatherogenic extracts three medicinal plants: jujube, barberry, saffron. For this, serum fasting blood glucose, lipid profile, malondialdehyde, total antioxidant capacity,...

We aimed to determine the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE) II simplified score (SAPS) in poisoned patients admitted poisoning ICU compare them see which is a more sensitive specific system for prognostication of mortality complications these patients. Between February 2013 July 2013, all referring our centre with any mandating admission were prospectively included. On arrival, questionnaire containing demographic data, parameters APACHE SAPS scores, sum during stay...

Lead (Pb) poisoning among people using opium has been an increasing problem in Iran. The present study highlights the clinical effects of lead toxicity associated with use Iran, Kerman province. Between January 2016 and June 2016, patients signs symptoms Pb were questioned to assess whether they had a history dependency. In total, 249 enrolled onto this cross-sectional study, all dependent. Para-clinical data including blood level (BLL), demographic information, user preferences, obtained....
