Return to Spontaneous Circulation in a Patient With Cholinergic Syndrome at the Emergency Department of Buea Regional Hospital, Cameroon. [PDF]
ABSTRACT With the increasing misuse of herbal treatment and pesticides, cases of cholinergic syndrome following herbal treatment or organophosphate poisoning have become increasingly common in our milieu. However, when advanced, mortality is high. We report the successful management of a case involving a 54‐year‐old African female with a known history ...

Light-Activated Pharmacological Tools for Exploring the Cholinergic System. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Cholinergic transmission plays a critical role in both the central and peripheral nervous systems, affecting processes such as learning, memory, and inflammation. Conventional cholinergic drugs generally suffer from poor selectivity and temporal precision, leading to undesired effects and limited therapeutic efficacy. Photopharmacology aims to

Combined Pre- and Posttreatment of Paraoxon Exposure
Aims: Organophosphates (OPCs), useful agents as pesticides, also represent a serious health hazard. Standard therapy with atropine and established oxime-type enzyme reactivators is unsatisfactory.

An acetylcholinesterase biosensor for determination of low concentrations of Paraoxon and Dichlorvos [PDF]
The characterization of an economic and ease-to-use carbon paste acetylcholinesterase (AChE) based biosensor to determine the concentration of pesticides Paraoxon and Dichlorvos is discussed.
