Blood Carboxyhemoglobin Concentrations as a Diagnostic Biomarker of Hemolytic Anemias in Cats. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Endogenous carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) production is a byproduct of hemoglobin metabolism. Hypothesis Blood carboxyhemoglobin concentrations are higher in cats with hemolytic anemia (HA). Animals Twenty cats with HA, 29 cats with non‐HA, and 22 controls were prospectively followed. Methods Blood tests were performed upon admission. The

Carboxyhemoglobin and Methemoglobin in Asthma [PDF]
Nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO) are synthesized at high levels in asthmatic airways. NO can oxidize hemoglobin (Hb) to methemoglobin (MetHb). CO binds to heme to produce carboxyhemoglobin (COHb). We hypothesized that MetHb and COHb may be increased in asthma.

Association of blood carboxyhemoglobin levels with mortality and neurological outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. [PDF]
Kaplan–Meier curve for survival within 30 days between the COHb 0.0% group and the COHb ≥ 0.1% group. The p value obtained from the log‐rank test was 0.002. Abstract Background Carbon monoxide (CO), produced endogenously by heme oxygenase‐1, plays a crucial role in the immune system by mitigating cellular damage under stress.

Carbon Monoxide Toxicity Secondary to Cutaneous Methylene Chloride Exposure: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Cutaneous absorption of methylene chloride is rarely toxic. This case shows that it can lead to carboxyhemoglobinemia. Exposure to methylene chloride should warrant a carboxyhemoglobin check and oxygen support. Adequate decontamination and monitoring for symptoms in patients with greater cutaneous exposure due to persistent risks for toxicity ...

An agnostic study of donor and component factors associated with transfusion-related changes in laboratory markers. [PDF]
Abstract Background Donor and red blood cell (RBC) component factors may affect patient outcomes after RBC transfusions, but data on the magnitude and consequences of these associations are limited. Study Design and Methods In this retrospective cohort study, we analyzed associations between 10 donor and component factors—including donor age ...

Perfusate hemoglobin during normothermic liver machine perfusion as biomarker of early allograft dysfunction: A pilot study. [PDF]
Perfusate hemoglobin levels decrease during normothermic machine perfusion and were associated with postoperative early allograft dysfunction or transaminase levels of recipients. Future studies to validate the findings from this pilot study are warranted.

Effects of chronic exposure to biomass pollutants on cardiorespiratory responses and the occurrence of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction in healthy men. [PDF]
Abstract Exposure to charcoal biomass (CB) pollutants affects the cardiorespiratory system. We assessed cardiopulmonary responses (CPR) to exercise in charcoal producers (CPs) compared to farmers and evaluated the prevalence of exercise‐induced bronchoconstriction (EIB).
