A carbon monoxide cycle drives carbon monoxide uptake and poisoning [PDF]
Physiological ReportsAn understanding of the physiology of acute carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning remains incomplete. This study describes a novel approach—considering a CO cycle driven by CO inhalation which includes: alveolar CO uptake → the transport to peripheral tissues →

Apollo Medicine, 2010 Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless and tasteless gas existing in a miniscule concentration in the atmosphere (< 0.001%), and is a product of partial combustion. Carbon monoxide poisoning is associated with a high incidence of morbidity and mortality. Symptoms are usually non-specific and include fatigue, headache, dizziness, nausea and vomiting,

Abnormal Brain Functional Network Dynamics in Acute CO Poisoning
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 Aims: Carbon monoxide poisoning is a common condition that can cause severe neurological sequelae. Previous studies have revealed that functional connectivity in carbon monoxide poisoning is abnormal under the assumption that it is resting during ...

Biological treatment of biowaste as an innovative source of CO—The role of composting process
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023 Carbon monoxide (CO) is an essential “building block” for producing everyday chemicals on industrial scale. Carbon monoxide can also be generated though a lesser-known and sometimes forgotten biorenewable pathways that could be explored to advance ...

Carbon monoxide poisoning - cases, pathophysiology, management
Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2023 Carbon monoxide poisoning is a common clinical problem, especially in autumn and winter. Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless gas and poisoning causes hypoxia, cell damage and consequently, can lead to death.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning, or Carbon Monoxide Protection? [PDF]
Chest, 2008 Carbon monoxide (CO) is a molecule generally presumed to be deleterious when inhaled at high concentrations, but is a marker of oxidative stress and inflammation when endogenously produced. Many reports1–3 have focused on increased endogenous CO production in pulmonary diseases, including asthma, COPD, acute pneumonia, and ARDS. In this issue of CHEST (

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning [PDF]
Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 1991 Carbon monoxide is a common domestic and industrial poison which may be lethal. Survivors can develop permanent neuropsychiatric disability. The mechanisms of toxicity are poorly understood and the traditional criteria used to determine the severity of the poisoning have low predictability.
