Occupational cyanide poisoning. [PDF]
Cyanide poisoning has existed for centuries. In most cases, cyanide is combined with other toxic substances; for example with carbon monoxide in fire smoke. Cases of pure cyanide poisoning are rare, and usually due to accidental exposure. Their treatment is based on oxygenation and the infusion of hydroxocobalamin.

Identification of specific metabolic pathways as druggable targets regulating the sensitivity to cyanide poisoning. [PDF]
Cyanide is a potent toxic agent, and the few available antidotes are not amenable to rapid deployment in mass exposures. As a result, there are ongoing efforts to exploit different animal models to identify novel countermeasures.

Electrochemical aptasensor for 2-amino-2-thiazoline-4-carboxylic acid (ATCA), a metabolite for cyanide poisoning [PDF]
An alternative biomarker for assessing the cyanide levels in postmortem materials is crucial for investigating acute cyanide intoxication. Herein, an aptamer–ligand biorecognition system with high specificity was developed to detect acute cyanide ...

Neurological Sequelae of Acute Hydrogen Sulfide Poisoning: A Literature Review, Controversies, and Knowledge Gaps [PDF]
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a highly potent toxic gas, and the brain is a primary target organ following acute intoxications. Accidents and misuse of this gas for nefarious purposes, i.e., bioterrorism, are causes for concern regarding acute poisoning. The

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
