Carbon monoxide poisoning-induced cardiomyopathy from charcoal at a barbecue restaurant: a case report
OBJECTIVE Acute carbon monoxide poisoning has important clinical value because it can cause severe adverse cardiovascular effects and sudden death. Acute carbon monoxide poisoning due to charcoal is well reported worldwide, and increased use of charcoal in the restaurant industry raises concern for an increase in occupational health problems. We present a case of carbon monoxide poisoning induc...
متن کاملA Case Report of Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Induced Cardiomyopathy Complicated with Left Ventricular Thrombus
The heart and the brain, most oxygen-dependent organs, may be severely affected after carbon monoxide (CO) exposure. CO induced cardiotoxicity may occur as a consequence of moderate to severe CO poisoning, including angina attack, myocardial infarct, arrhythmias, and heart failure. We present a rare case of CO poisoning induced cardiomyopathy with left ventricular (LV) thrombus. It is thought t...
متن کاملSome Biomarkers in Carbon Monoxide-Induced Cardiotoxicity
Methodology: Cardiovascular system examination and Electrocardiography (ECG) were performed for fifty CO intoxicated patients admitted to Poison Control Center, Ain Shams university Hospital for whom some oxidative stress indices have been investigated through the assessment of plasma level of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and nitric oxide (NO). Both cardiac enzymes; troponi...
متن کاملINTERFERON INDUCED CARDIOMYOPATHY: CASE REPORTS
There are few reports concerning interferon induced myocardial dysfunction. A known case of multiple myeloma who was receiving interferon alpha (IFA) for 14 months was brought to the emergency room in frank: pulmonary edema. After treatment of heart failure and discontinuation of interferon alpha, he remained asymptomatic thereafter. Another case of chronic active hepatitis on IFA complain...
متن کاملBiological signaling by carbon monoxide and carbon monoxide-releasing molecules.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is continuously produced in mammalian cells during the degradation of heme. It is a stable gaseous molecule that reacts selectively with transition metals in a specific redox state, and these characteristics restrict the interaction of CO with defined biological targets that transduce its signaling activity. Because of the high affinity of CO for ferrous heme, these targets...
