Carbon monoxide and hypertension

Journal of Hypertension, 2004
The enzymatic action of heme oxygenase yields carbon monoxide, biliverdin and iron. Carbon monoxide is implicated in many physiological processes, including the regulation of vascular tissue contractility and apoptosis. By stimulating the soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC)/cGMP pathway and activating K channels in vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs ...

Carbon Monoxide in Rainwater

Science, 1971
Concentrations of carbon monoxide in rainwater collected at widely diverse locations show up to a 200-fold supersaturation relative to the partial pressure of the gas in the atmosphere. These results indicate the existence of an additional natural source of carbon monoxide not heretofore considered.

Carbon Monoxide Toxicity

Journal of Burn Care & Research, 2009
Inhalation injury consists of a multitude of insults, the first of which is the toxic gases inhaled during the combustion of organic and inorganic substances. Significant morbidity and mortality in patients with burn injury occur due to the varying effects of these gases.

Carbon monoxide elimination

Respiration Physiology, 1975
The elimination rates of carbon monoxide in anesthetized, spontaneously breathing dogs were determined following acute inhalation of varying amounts of this gas. Blood levels of carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) induced ranged between 5 and 43%. Following the administration of carbon monoxide, the decline in arterial blood %COHb was biphasic. The decline in the

Pathogenicity of Carbon Monoxide

The American Journal of Forensic Medicine and Pathology, 1997
The effects of carbon monoxide, one of the most commonly encountered toxic agents in forensic practice, have been known for a long time, but the nature of its bonding to the heme prosthetic group of hemoproteins has only recently been elucidated. In addition to reducing the oxygen capacity of the blood and the consequent systemic hypoxia, carbon ...

Carbon monoxide poisoning

BMJ, 2019
### What you need to know A 23 year old man with no medical history presents to the emergency department with a three day history of headache, transient visual disturbance, dizziness, and hypertension. On clinical examination the patient is flushed and drowsy with redness in the sclera, with no further visual or systemic symptoms.

Carbon Monoxide Retinopathy

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1976
A 26-year-old man who had become comatose after having inhaled carbon monoxide developed retinal venous engorgement and peripillary hemorrhages. Retinal changes closely resembled those that accompany hypoxemia.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

New England Journal of Medicine, 2002
Carbon monoxide poisoning is the most common type of accidental poisoning in the United States, accounting for thousands of emergency department visits and some 800 deaths annually. Carbon monoxide, an insidious byproduct of incomplete hydrocarbon combustion, is generated in toxic amounts by internal-combustion engines, fossil-fuel furnaces, and fires.

Carbon monoxide intoxication

2015
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, nonirritant gas that accounts for numerous cases of CO poisoning every year from a variety of sources of incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons. These include poorly functioning heating systems, indoor propane-powered forklifts, indoor burning of charcoal burning briquettes, riding in the back of pick-up ...

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

New England Journal of Medicine, 1965
MEDICOLEGAL problems arise when carbon monoxide is responsible for death. The cause of death may be conclusively established if the amount of carbon monoxide in the blood is determined, and if this...
