Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Medical Clinics of North America, 2004
CO is an insidious poison with many sources of exposure. CO poisoning produces diverse signs and symptoms, which often are subtle and can be misdiagnosed easily. Failure to diagnose CO poisoning may result insignificant morbidity and mortality and allow continued exposure to a dangerous environment.

Worldwide epidemiology of carbon monoxide poisoning

Human and Experimental Toxicology, 2019
This article presents updated information on the worldwide burden of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. The worldwide epidemiologic data were obtained from the Global Health Data Exchange registry, a large database of health-related data maintained by the ...

Carbon monoxide poisoning

Forensic Science International, 1989
This paper illustrates the remarkable fall of carbon monoxide poisoning due to the abolition of coal gas in the 1970 era and a corresponding decrease in suicide deaths. It enfolds the varying forms of suicide and accident according to age, sex and circumstance.

Carbon Monoxide Cardiotoxicity

Journal of Toxicology: Clinical Toxicology, 2001
Cardiac dysfunction including arrhythmias and myocardial ischemia have often been reported in carbon monoxide poisoning; scattered punctiform hemorrhages throughout the heart have been documented in autopsy samples. An appropriate diagnostic approach is crucial to assess carbon monoxide cardiac damage.

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 in Sepsis

Antioxidants & Redox Signaling, 2007
Despite modern practices in critical care medicine, sepsis or systemic inflammatory response syndrome remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the intensive care unit. Thus, the need to identify new therapeutic tools for the treatment of sepsis is urgent. In this context, carbon monoxide has become a promising therapeutic molecule that can

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Critical Care Clinics, 2012
Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is the leading cause of death as a result of unintentional poisoning in the United States. CO toxicity is the result of a combination of tissue hypoxia-ischemia secondary to carboxyhemoglobin formation and direct CO-mediated damage at a cellular level.

Life with Carbon Monoxide

Critical Reviews in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2004
This review focuses on how microbes live on CO as a sole source of carbon and energy and with CO by generating carbon monoxide as a metabolic intermediate. The use of CO is a property of organisms that use the Wood-L jungdahl pathway of autotrophic growth.

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

Journal of the Royal Society for the Promotion of Health, 1998
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colourless, odourless and tasteless gas. It is emitted when carbon containing compounds are incompletely combusted. This paper reports on concentrations of CO in the environment in relation to anthropogenic emission sources and assesses the extent of the health hazard from this common air pollutant. It includes the results of
