Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Effectively Treated with High-flow Nasal Cannula Oxygen [PDF]
Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is typically treated by administration of oxygen via non-rebreather mask (NRB). High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is an alternative to NRB in a variety of disease states.

Christian Bohr. Discoverer of Homotropic and Heterotopic Allostery
ABSTRACT This essay recounts and revisits the scientific contributions of Christian Bohr, highlighting his pivotal role in discovering allostery about 120 years ago. Bohr's meticulous experimentation led to identifying two distinct forms of allostery: homotropic (single‐ligand) and heterotropic (multi‐ligand), the latter widely recognized as the Bohr ...

Tobacco hookah smoking‐induced carbon monoxide poisoning: A case report of non‐ambient exposure
Carbon monoxide (CO) toxicity should be considered in patients presenting to the emergency department with any acute vague manifestations after hookah smoking; furthermore, smoking in an open space does not eliminate the risk of CO toxicity.

Context: “Smoking causes variation in different parameters of blood like hemoglobin (Hb) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR).” Continuous exposure to carbon monoxide leads to the formation of carboxyhemoglobin, an inactive form of Hb with no oxygen ...

Health Hazard Manual for Firefighters [PDF]
[Excerpt] Firefighters, as well as victims, can be exposed to a variety of toxic substances during a fire. Some of these toxicants are particularly insidious because they are produced by thermal decomposition before smoke makes a fire ...

PEGylated carboxyhemoglobin bovine (SANGUINATE) ameliorates myocardial infarction in a rat model
Artificial oxygen (O2) carriers were reported to be protective in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) in various organs including the heart. In the current study, 20 rats underwent ligation (MI) of the left anterior descending artery, were treated with 10 mL/kg ...
