Association of blood carboxyhemoglobin levels with mortality and neurological outcomes in out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest [PDF]

open access: yesAcute Medicine & Surgery
Background Carbon monoxide (CO), produced endogenously by heme oxygenase‐1, plays a crucial role in the immune system by mitigating cellular damage under stress.

Carboxyhemoglobin as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker of hemolytic anemias in dogs

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2023
Background Endogenous production of carbon monoxide during hemoglobin metabolism leads to the formation of carboxyhemoglobin. Carboxyhemoglobin concentration is abnormally high in humans with hemolytic anemia (HA).

Carboxyhemoglobin changes in relation to inspired oxygen fraction during general anesthesia [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Journal of Anesthesia and Intensive Therapy, 2017
Measurement of carboxyhemoglobin could be a new method for evaluation of the severity of inflammatory airway disease, acute organ dysfunction, or stress by surgery and anesthesia.

Can indicators of myocardial damage predict carbon monoxide poisoning outcomes?

open access: yesBMC Emergency Medicine, 2021
Background Carbon monoxide causes electrical, functional, and morphological changes in the heart. It is unclear, however, whether the indicators of myocardial damage can predict the patient’s prognosis after carbon monoxide poisoning.

Carbon monoxide poisoning - cases, pathophysiology, management

open access: yesJournal 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.

Impact of environmental pollution on carboxyhemoglobin levels among smoking and non-smoking motorcycle taxi drivers

open access: yesBioscience Journal, 2018
Studies related to environmental pollution, carbon monoxide levels and smoking need to be deepened, especially in the case of traffic workers.

Diffusion of Carbon Monoxide and Hydrogen Cyanide to Muscles and Blood—An Experimental Study

open access: yesToxics, 2022
Postmortem carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen cyanide (HCN) diffusion under ambient conditions was assessed in a human cadaver model. The main objective of this study was to determine whether the postmortem diffusion of HCN and CO greatly affected the ...

Endogenous Carboxyhemoglobin Level Variation in COVID-19 and Bacterial Sepsis: A Novel Approach?

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Background: The increased production of carbon monoxide (CO) in sepsis has been proven, but the blood level variations of carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) as a potential evolutionary parameter of COVID-19 and sepsis/septic shock have yet to be determined.

Carbon gas poisoning

open access: yesМедицина неотложных состояний, 2022
Carbon monoxide belongs to a group of blood poisons that cause pathological changes in blood pigments. Carbon monoxi­de readily combines with hemoglobin iron to form carboxyhemoglobin.

Carboxyhemoglobin and Methemoglobin in Asthma [PDF]

open access: yesLung, 2015
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.
