RESUMEN
Objective:To analyze and summarize the basic characteristics and clinical features of botulism patients caused by cosmetic injection of botulinum toxin.Methods:Retrospective investigation and analysis method were used to analyze the data of botulism patients caused by cosmetic injection of botulinum toxin admitted to the Poisoning Treatment Center of the PLA from March 2016 to June 2019.Results:Total of 380 cases were included in this study, including 114 hospitalized cases and 266 emergency cases. The majority patients (97.4%) were female, and most of them (39.5%) were among 30-39 years old. Most of the cases occurred in beauty salons or beauty studios, and most of the botulinum toxin injected was fake and inferior products. Onset latency were mainly distributed in 3 to 6 days. Common clinical symptoms included dizziness, blurred vision, eyes open weakness, dysphagia, chest tightness of breath, fatigue, diplopia, nausea, bilateral eyelid drooping, and dysarthria. The "4D" sign of cranial nerve injury occurred less frequently, mainly with mild and moderate poisoning; The occurrence rates of dysarthria, dysphagia, eyes open weakness, blurred vision, choking in drinking water, chewing weakness, bilateral eyelid drooping, decreased limb muscle strength, and chest tightness of breath in the hospitalized case were significantly higher than those in the emergency cases (all P < 0.05). Three hundred and nine patients received botulinum antitoxin therapy. The dose of botulinum antitoxin was 20 000 (20 000-30 000) U, with a total treatment duration of 4 (3-7) days in the emergence cases, and 30 000 (30 000-50 000) U with a total treatment time of 8 (5-11) days in the hospitalized cases, and there were significant differences between the two groups ( P < 0.05). All cases were followed up with good prognosis. Conclusions:Cosmetic injection of botulinum toxin has certain risk. If symptoms of poisoning occur such as dizziness, blurred vision, eyes open weakness and dysphagia, patients should be treated promptly, and early treatment with botulinum antitoxin can improve the prognosis.

RESUMEN
Objective To analyze the clinical manifestation and therapeutic method in patients with acute mushroom poisoning. Methods A retrospective study was conducted. The clinical data of 48 patients with acute mushroom poisoning admitted to Department of Poisoning Treatment of the 307th Hospital of PLA from January 2016 to May 2017 were analyzed. The clinical data including gender, age, clinical symptoms, onset season, initial symptoms, incubation time, the length of hospital stay, treatment, and prognosis. In addition to the conventional treatment, the patients with severe liver damage were treated with continuous blood purification (CBP). The changes in routine blood test, biochemical parameters, blood ammonia and coagulation function before and 1, 3 and 7 days after CBP were observed. Results There were 29 of male (60.4%) and 19 of female (39.6%) in 48 patients with acute mushroom poisoning, with an average age of (48.10±13.14) years. There were 9 patients suffering from gastroenteritis type, 26 suffering from liver damage type, 8 suffering from neuro-psychosis type, 2 suffering from hemolytic type, and 3 suffering from renal damage type. All of the poisoned patients had evident seasonal characteristic, mainly concentrated in the autumn, especially in August, according for 66.7% (32/48). The initial symptoms of poisoning patients were mainly manifested as nausea and vomiting (50.0%). In five kinds of poisoned patients, the incubation time [(1.44±1.15) hours] and the length of hospital stay [(3.50±2.33) days] of neuro-psychosis type was the shortest, and the incubation time of liver-damaged type [(10.63±3.50) hours] and the length of hospital stay of renal damage type [(20.67±0.58) days] was the longest. Patients received symptomatic treatment according to different types, among whom 12 patients with severe liver damage received additional treatment for CBP. After the treatment, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and prothrombin activity (PTA) were significantly improved as compared with those before CBP treatment, with significant differences between 7 days after CBP and before CBP [ALT (U/L): 213.08±127.30 vs. 2 766.83±1 909.66, AST (U/L): 50.00 (41.00, 85.00) vs. 2 142.00 (1 225.00, 3 126.00), CK-MB (U/L): 24.09±8.87 vs. 44.75±22.09, LDH (μmol·s-1·L-1):3.70±1.46 vs. 13.03±12.77, PTA: (79.08±24.29)% vs. (35.25±19.85)%, all P < 0.01]. Among 48 patients, 47 were cured and discharged, and 1 patient with liver failure died due to aggravation of liver dysfunction, abnormal coagulation and bleeding, and massive hemorrhage of gastrointestinal tract. Conclusions Acute mushroom poisoning patients demonstrated obvious seasonal characteristics, mostly liver-damaged type, and its initial symptoms were mainly presented as nausea, vomiting and other gastrointestinal manifestations. Early clarification of diagnosis, timely treatment, as well as providence with CBP treatment in severe patients should be carried out as soon as possible.

A rapid and simple method for the determination of cyanide in blood was developed based on pinhole shell-isolated nanoparticles (pinSHINs)-enhanced Raman spectroscopy and an online lysis-purging and trapping approach.In the online lysis-purging and trapping device, the bound cyanide in blood can be cleaved through sulfuric acid acidification, and transferred into HCN volatile gas, then purged into alkaline solution to form NaCN solution, thus high-efficient liberation and entrapment of cyanide from the methemoglobin-bound form can be achieved.The pinSHINs substrate is quite stable to weaken the gold-dissolution effect caused by cyanide under strong alkaline condition, and therefore the detection window can be prolonged to 1 h comparing with 5 min of AuNPs.A limit of detection down to 10 μg/L and a linear range from 100-2000 μg/L in blood were achieved in this method.This method was further applied to rapid measurement of blood samples of cyanide exposed rats and clinic poisoned patients, which provided a sensitive, selective and reliable way for rapid detection of cyanide poisoning.

Objective To analyze the epidemiologic data of patients withClostridium botulinum food poisoning, and to improve the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of food borne botulism.Methods A retrospective study was conducted. Fifty-three patients withClostridium botulinum food poisoning admitted to Chinese PLA Center of Poisoning and Treatment from January 2009 to December 2016 were enrolled, and they were divided into mild, moderate, and severe groups according to the severity of disease. The clinical data including medical history, epidemiology data, routine blood test and blood biochemistry at hospital admission, the vital signs and arterial blood gas analysis before and after treatment, as well as the occurrence frequency of symptom and sign on set were collected.Results Fifty-three patients with food borne botulism were enrolled, with 33 patients in mild group, 13 in moderate group, and 7 in severe group. Most of the patients were female, the age distribution was in large span, the outbreak of disease was in groups mainly with the family, and patients were mainly located in Hebei Province, Beijing and Henan Province. The outbreaks were mainly happened in Spring and Summer, and homemade fermentation products were still the first cause of poisoning with the average latent period of (51.01±4.78) hours. The majority of patients with botulism were in mild resulted from the type A toxin. With the aggravation of disease, hospitalization time was gradually increased, white blood cell (WBC) and neutrophils (NEUT) at hospitalization admission, and respiratory rate (RR), heart rate (HR), fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) before the treatment were shown in obviously rising trend, albumin (ALB) at hospitalization admission and pH, arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) before treatment were in decline. The parameters in severe group were most severe, and had significant differences as compared with those of mild group [hospitalization time (days): 72.57±39.52 vs. 6.61±3.72, WBC (×109/L): 13.01±6.44 vs. 6.85±2.07, NEUT: 0.85±0.07 vs.0.63±0.14, RR (bpm): 32.14±4.33 vs. 15.18±1.70, HR (bpm): 132.29±5.19 vs. 75.54±8.24, FiO2: 0.32±0.05 vs. 0.21±0.00, ALB (g/L): 38.57±4.65 vs. 42.09±4.57, pH: 7.08±0.10 vs. 7.38±0.07, PaO2 (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 75.16±5.24 vs. 98.39±1.50, SaO2: 0.78±0.06 vs. 0.97±0.02, allP < 0.05]. The symptom and sign on set of 53 patients with food borne botulism was dizziness, followed by fatigue, blurred vision, nausea, and other symptoms and signs were lower than 50%, and the occurrence of dizziness with rank one happen rate was significantly higher than blurred vision and nausea (χ2 values were 7.209 and 10.502 respectively, andP values were 0.007 and 0.004 respectively). After the on time prescription of botulinum antitoxins treatment, the clinical symptoms of patients could be relived quickly. All the patients were discharged without deaths.Conclusion In order to improve the recovery of the food borne botulism poisoning patients, adequate antitoxin and the related organ supports should be prescribed on time.
RESUMEN
Mercury is one of the common heavy-metal toxins,which can cause damage throughout the body in a variety of ways. Cases of renal toxicity of mercury poisoning are increasing clinically. However,little is known about nephrotoxicity mechanisms,and treatment remains unsatisfactory. The mechanism of mercury toxic nephropathy is reviewed in this paper,including the direct toxic effect on the kidney,the injury to the biomembrane system,generation of Hg-metallothionein,imbalance of intra?cellular calciumion,oxidative damage,induced apoptosis,and immune injury. Besides,the mechanism and limitation of common therapies,potential developments of the field are discussed. This review will facilitate further investigations therapies about both the mechanism and treatment of mercury toxic nephropathy.
RESUMEN
Acute organophosphorus pesticides poisoning(AOPP)is one of the common critical emergency problems and the fatality is extremely high. Organophosphorus pesticides(OPS)are highly effective acetylcholinesterase(AChE)inhibitors. The AChE inhibition results in accumulation of acetyl?choline and overestimation of acetylcholine receptors in synapses of the autonomic nervous system, central nervous system,and neuromuscular junctions,causing a series of symptoms including musca?rinic,nicotinic,and central nervous system dysfunctions. In the early stage of AOPP,the core treat?ment is the use of anticholinergic drugs coupled with cholinesterase reactivator. Atropine and penehycli?dine hydrochloride(Tuoning)are the most commonly used anticholinergic drugs,which can effectively compete with acetylcholine receptors,block the effect of acetylcholine,and relieve the symptoms of re?spiratory failure,bronchospasm,pulmonary edema caused by AOPP. Oximes are believed to function as AChE reactivators,that can promote enzymatic reactivation and restore the activity of hydrolysis of ace? tylcholine. Recently,new avproaches,such as intravenous lipid emulsion,new detoxification drugs, blood purification,and traditional Chinese medicine,have attracted more attention. Overall,great prog?ress has been made in AOPP treatments. A better understanding of AOPP mechanism,and the support from pharmacology,toxicology,and related fields can contribute to the treatment of AOPP. Improved medical management of AOPP can also result in fewer deaths from poisoning worldwide.
RESUMEN
ObjectiveTo determine thallium in whole blood by atomic absorption detection method, and to investigate the eliminating effect of hemoperfusion (HP) for thallium in blood.Methods The blood of Beagle dogs which had not exposed to thallium before were obtained for preparation of thallium nitrate (TlNO3)-containing solution in three concentrations according to the conversion formula based on animal weight and volume of blood. HP was performed in the simulated in vivo environment. The content of TlNO3 in blood of the next group was determined on the amount of TlNO3 for the last HP of the former dose group. Thallium quantity in different samples was measured with atomic absorption spectrometer blood samples before and after HP. Finally, the thallium concentration in blood was analyzed statistically.Results Thallium concentrations showed a good linear relationship in the range of 0-200μg/L (r = 0.998 4). The intra-day precision (RSD) was lower than 4.913%, the intra-day recovery rate was 96.2%-111.9%; the inter-day precision (RSD) was lower than 7.502%, the inter-day recovery rate was 89.6%-105.2%. The concentration of thallium in blood was significantly reduced after HP per time in high, middle, and low dose groups [(453.43±27.80) mg/L to (56.09±14.44) mg/L in high dose group,F = 8.820,P = 0.003;(64.51±13.60) mg/L to (3.19±0.23) mg/L in middle dose group,F = 36.312,P = 0.000; (5.40±0.98) mg/L to (0.38±0.25) mg/L in low dose group,F = 46.240,P = 0.000]. The adsorption rate of four times of HP in high, middle and low dose group were (87.63±2.48)%, (95.06±1.54)% and (92.76±4.87)%, respectively, without significant difference (F = 4.231,P = 0.070 ).Conclusions The method for measuring thallium was established, and it shows a very stable, simple, sensitive for determination of thallium. HP can effectively remove thallium from blood. Thallium concentration can be reduced by 90% after four times of HP. HP is also effective even when thallium concentration is not high.
RESUMEN
Objective To explore the possible mechanism and protective effect of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) on rats with paraquat-induced acute lung injury. Method The solution of 20% paraquat (PQ) in dose of 18 mg/kg was injected intra-peritoneally into rats to induce poisoning,and phosphate buffered solution (PBS) was given to rats instead of PQ in rats of control group. Eighty specific pathogen free (SPF) Wistar rats were randomly divided into four group: PQ plus PBS group (n = 20), PQ plus MSCs group (n = 20), MSCs plus PBS group (n=20), normal group (n = 20). The forth generation of MSCs were transfected with Ad5-EGFP virus vector, and then the MSCs-EGFP was delivered to rats through the tail vein of rats 4h after PQ. Five rats of each group were sacrificed 1 d, 3 d, 7 d and 28 days after MSCs administration, and lung tissues of rats were taken to make sections for histological observation of the migration of MSCs under fluorescence inverted microscope. The lung tissues of rats sacrificed on the 28 th day after PQ poisoning were taken for detecting pulmonary coefficient and the content of hydroxyproline (HYP) in the lung tissue homogenate, and at the same time, the levels of serum transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1) were assayed. Results The pathological changes of lung tissue showed that the pulmonary fibrosis and consolidation in the MSCs treatment group were milder than those in PQ poisoning model group. In the MSCs treatment group, the levels of serum TGF-β1 and lung tissue HYP, and pulmonary coefficient were lower than those of PQ poisoning model group (P<0.05). Conclusions The use of MSCs for treatment of paraquat intoxication can protect pulmonary structure by decrease in TGF-B1 and inhibiting the fibroblast migration, suppressing the production of collagenous protein.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) of mice are different from human and rats.The difficulties of culture,sustaining impermanency activity of BMSCs after passage and short-term effect of stem cells tracking limited the study of mice.OBJECTIVE:To obverse modified isolated culture method of BMSCs of mice and the feasibility of long-term fluorescent labeling stem cells.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:The experiments were conducted at the Affiliated Hospital of Academy of Military Medicine Science from June to December in 2008.MATERIALS:C57BL/6 mice,males and females,4-6 weeks of age,mean weighing 20 g,were used.METHODS:Stem cell culture fluid serum and liquid change manner were optimized using adherent screening and Percoll separation method.Rat BMSCs were incubated.In accordance with previous experiences of MSCs between human and macaque,Hyclonehigh-grade fetal bovine serum was selected for mouse MSC incubation.Serum was 10% of the medium.Bone marrow cells were washed out using LG-DMEM to filter bone dregs and small muscle blocks.Subsequently,samples were added on the Percoll separating medium at relative density of 1.082,and then incubated in 75 cm~2 culture flask at the concentration of 1.5×10~6/cm~2.BMSCs at the second passage were labeled with CM-Dil.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Morphological changes in primary cultured and subcultured mouse BMSCs were measured.BMSC surface antigen of the second passage of mice (CD105,CD44,CD25,CD34) were determined using flow cytometry.The modified method was assessed to harvest the purity of stem cells.Activity of mouse BMSCs was identified using adipogenic and osteoplastic differentiation.The strength of fluorescent cells following multiple passage was observed.RESULTS:①The attached cells were observed 48 hours after primary cells culture and changed shuttles,triangles and flats at 7 days after culture.The figure become bunches and radial pattam at 3 passages.②MSCs highly expressed CD105,CD44 phenotypes and seldom expressed CD34 and CD45.③Spindle shape of cells gradually disappeared,with increased cell body.Some cells grew in cluster.MSCs changed figures to multilayer knots 10 days after inducing osteoplastic differentiation.MSCs became roundness and appeared fat drops in cells 9 days after inducing adipogenic differentiation.Red fat particles were shown following oil O staining.④The labeling cells gave out oranges light,and marked rates were over 80% in MSCs under the fluorescent microscope.The labeling cells were over 47% in 4 passages MSCs using flow cytometry.CONCLUSION:The modified method gained high-dosage cells in shorten culture time at passage 2 and made CM-Dil long lime labeling cells,which made more convenient for MSCs experiment on mice and stem cells tracer experiment in vivo.

Objective To find the correlative factors which induce breath failure in acute tetramine poisoning cases, and to work out a right treatment scheme for these cases. Methods 47 cases were clinically diagnosed as slight, middling and severe poisoning, separately. The tetramine concentration in blood was compared between the three groups to reveal the relationship between blood concentration of tetramine and breath failure. Patients with breath failure were treated with muscle relaxant plus mechanical ventilation. Repeated hemoperfusions were given to the severe poisoning patients. Results No breath failure occured in both slight and middling groups, while in severe poisoning group, breath failure happened in 33.3% (4/12) patients aged below 15, and in 31.8% (7/22) adult patients aged above 15. Repeated hemoperfusion declined the tetramine concentration in blood, and gave a better effect than with CVVH or CVVHD treatment. muscle relaxant plus mechanical ventilation may control the symptom of twitching completely, and prevent from breath failure effectively. Conclusion Breath failure in acute tetramine poisoning cases was induced by systemic twitching and high blood tetramine concentration. It is very important to grade the poisoning cases according to poisoning degree. Repeated hemoperfusion is the best for blood purification. muscle relaxant plus mechanical ventilation may reduce the mortality effectively.
