Filter by:To estimate diagnostic levels of amylase, lipase, pseudocholinestrase and neutrophili lymphocytic ratio to different pesticide poisoning. In addition to detect prognostic values of theses enzymes & NLR and its relation to the outcome of all pesticide poisoning. To assess descriptive sociodemographic criteria of these poisoned cases, mode of toxicity, type of pesticide poisoning at emergency room, any other associated toxicity as well as the clinical outcome.
Intravenous lipid emulsion is an established, effective treatment for local anesthetic systemic toxicity. It is also efficacious in animal models of severe cardiotoxicity caused by a number of other medications. Recent case reports of successful resuscitation suggest the efficacy of lipid emulsion infusion for treating non-local anesthetic overdoses across a wide spectrum of drugs. The present study will focus on the potential role of intravenous lipid emulsion as an adjuvant therapy in pesticides toxicity.
This study evaluates whether the addition of intravenous magnesium sulphate or nimodipine to standard therapy (supportive care plus for all patients atropine and, for OP insecticide poisoned patients, pralidoxime) benefits patients after acute anticholinesterase self-poisoning with OP or carbamate insecticides.
Oocyte quality is a key limiting factor in female fertility which is primarily reflected in morphological features. Centrally located cytoplasm granulation (CLCG) is one type of cytoplasmic dimorphism exhibited by oocytes that could be linked to pesticide exposure with a significant risk of decreased ICSI outcomes. This retrospective study included 633 women who were part of an intracytoplasmic spermatozoa injection (ICSI) program between 2009 and 2011. The participants lived in the Picardy region of France and had been exposed to pesticides. The participants were divided in two groups based on prevalence of oocytes with CLCG (LCLCG [n= 83]: low prevalence of oocytes with CLCG under 25%. HCLCG [ n= 68]: high prevalence of CLCG over 75%). The embryological and clinical outcomes were analysed for both groups and were calculated using the difference between the two values.
An association has been suggested with several diseases including cancer and IARC has classified several pesticides as carcinogenic, probably carcinogenic. There is a need for a better characterisation of environmental pesticides exposures and identification of suitable biomarkers of exposure and effect. A better understanding of the impact of pesticide exposure on metabolomic, transcriptomic and epigenetic changes, is essential to strengthen epidemiological hypotheses on the association with several cancer types. The main objective of the project is to validate a GIS (geographic information system) based method to assess environmental pesticide exposures, using environmental (contamination of housedust) and biological (blood and urine samples) measures. The project aims further to investigate a potential link between housedust contamination and biological measures in healthy non-smoking male residents and explore the impact of environmental pesticide exposure on metabolomics, transcriptomic and epigenetic parameters.
A major global public health priority is to identify effective methods for preventing deaths from pesticide self-poisoning. The aim of this work is to determine whether the provision of lockable storage containers to poor households in rural Asia can reduce the incidence of intentional pesticide self-poisoning. Secondary questions include the effect of these containers on unintentional pesticide poisoning in children and overall self-harm.
