Abstract Sulphur mustard (SM) is an alkylating chemical warfare agent that was widely used during the World War I and in Iran–Iraq conflict. Delayed complications of SM different organs their severity correlations have not previously been reported. Dermatological, ophthalmological, neurological respiratory examinations, as well spirometry, gasometry, high resolution computed tomography scanning chest, electromyography, nerve conduction velocity, cell blood counts, flow‐cytometric analyses,...

Forty-four adults with aspirin poisoning were treated oral fluids only, standard forced alkaline diuresis, diuresis alone, or sodium bicarbonate (alkali) alone. Alkali alone was at least as effective and possibly more than in enhancing salicylate removal. Unlike the regimens it did not cause fluid retention biochemical disturbances. The renal excretion of depends much on urine pH flow rate, had little useful effect. In overdosage causes may impair function. Attempts to force a are...

Mustard gas or sulfur mustard (SM) is an alkylating chemical warfare agent that was widely used during the World War I and in Iran-Iraq conflict. We aimed to study late toxic effects of SM on respiratory system severely intoxicated Iranian veterans. Respiratory examination, spirometry, arterial blood (ABG) analysis, high resolution computed tomograpghy (HRCT) chest were performed all SM-poisoned veterans province Khorasan, Iran. HRCT abnormalities classified into four grades based number...

Abstract Background Extensive cutaneous burns caused by alkylating chemical warfare agent sulfur mustard (SM) have been associated with the severe suppression of immune system in humans. We aimed to study association between late and immunological complications SM poisoning. Methods Skin examination was performed on all SM‐poisoned Iranian veterans province Khorasan, Iran, who had significant clinical complications, their intoxication confirmed toxicological analysis. Light microscopy eight...

A bstract Background: This study was aimed to determine the correlation between ocular complications and respiratory or cutaneous in a group of 40 Iranian veterans with late sulphur mustard (SM) poisoning. Methods: Thorough ophthalmologic examination performed on all severely SM‐poisoned province Khorasan, Iran. Spirometric evaluation pulmonary function, as well estimation burned skin area, for patients. The severities ocular, were classified into four grades each patient compared other,...

1 The metabolism of paracetamol after a single oral dose 20 mg/kg was compared in fifteen patients with microsomal enzyme induction taking anticonvulsants or rifampicin and twelve healthy volunteers. 2 Induction confirmed by measurement the plasma antipyrine half-life (mean 6.4 h 12.8 volunteers). 3 glucuronide conjugation enhanced induced as shown lower concentrations, shorter half-life, higher concentrations an increased ratio area under concentration time curves to unchanged drug. There...

The widespread use of sulphur mustard (SM) as an incapacitating chemical warfare agent in the past century has proved its long-lasting toxic effects. It may also be used a terrorist agent. Therefore, all health professionals should have sufficient knowledge and prepared for any such attack. SM exerts direct effects on eyes, skin, respiratory tissue, with subsequent systemic action nervous, immunological, haematological, digestive, reproductive systems. is alkylating that affects DNA...

Previous studies on animals have revealed that garlic (Allium sativum) is effective in reducing blood and tissue lead concentrations. The aim of this study was to investigate therapeutic effects compare it with d-penicillamine patients chronic poisoning.

To investigate late toxic effects of sulfur mustard (SM) on the upper and lower respiratory tracts Iranian veterans, 43 male veterans with more than 25% disability due to SM poisoning in 20−25 years after exposure, were studied. Direct laryngoscopy, pulmonary function tests, arterial blood gasses pH, computed tomography sinuses lungs investigated. The patients aged 50.6 (8.9 SD) body mass index (BMI) 26.6 (4.0) 53.2 (17.0%). common findings tract dysphonia (79.1%), post-nasal discharge (PND;...
