Functioning and Interpersonal Communication in a Victim of Carbon Monoxide Poisoning – A Case Study
Carbon monoxide poisoning leads to the destruction of nerve cells and results in late neurological symptoms. The article presents the clinical symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning and related consciousness disorders. A case study is analyzed which shows

Neuroimaging for differential diagnosis of transient neurological attacks
Abstract Background Rapid yet comprehensive neuroimaging protocols are required for patients with suspected acute stroke. However, stroke mimics can account for approximately one in five clinically diagnosed acute ischemic strokes and the rate of thrombolyzed mimics can be as high as 17%.

Carbon monoxide poisoning [PDF]
For references, please see Appendix 2, available at [www.cmaj.ca/lookup/suppl/doi:10.1503/cmaj.130972/-/DC1][1] Carbon monoxide (CO) is an imperceptible gas produced by the incomplete combustion of carbon-based compounds.

Bimetallic nanoalloy: Establishment of a bimetallic PtGa nanoalloy supported on MCF‐17 for SRE study at varying temperatures. Higher concentration Ga resulted in the highest formation rate of H2 (3047.2 nmol g−1 sec−1). Ga in electron deficit state in the Pt90Ga10/MCF‐17 enhanced acidity and dehydrogenating properties, which resulted in the highest ...

Various injury patterns due to combustion (typical but unfamiliar to physicians and easy to miss) in Korea: a case report [PDF]
Patients transported from fire sites may exhibit various injury patterns. Major trauma, skin burn, inhalation burn, and carbon monoxide poisoning are typical injuries. However, most physicians may be unfamiliar that cyanide poisoning can frequently occur

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Pathogenesis, Management, and Future Directions of Therapy
&NA; Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning affects 50,000 people a year in the United States. The clinical presentation runs a spectrum, ranging from headache and dizziness to coma and death, with a mortality rate ranging from 1 to 3%.

Effects of inert species in the gas phase in a model for the catalytic oxidation of CO [PDF]
We study by kinetic Monte Carlo simulations the catalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide on a surface in the presence of contaminants in the gas phase. The process is simulated by a Ziff-Gulari-Barshad (ZGB) model that has been modified to include the effect of the contaminants and to eliminate the unphysical oxygen-poisoned phase.
