Organic Phosphorus Poisoning and Its Therapy

Poisoning by organophosphorus insecticides and sensory neuropathy.

OBJECTIVES Poisoning by organophosphate insecticides causes cholinergic toxicity. Organophosphate induced delayed polyneuropathy (OPIDP) is a sensory-motor distal axonopathy which usually occurs after ingestion of large doses of certain organophosphate insecticides and has so far only been reported in patients with preceding cholinergic toxicity. Surprisingly, it was recently reported by other ...

Morphological and Physiological Responses of Carnation and Tomato to Organic Phosphorus Insecticides and Inorganic Soil Phosphorus.

During the last few years considerable attention has been focused upon the use of the organic phosphorus compounds hexaethyl tetraphosphate and tetraethyl pyrophosphate as the active components of certain commercial insecticides. These substances are known to be toxic not only to insects but to other organisms in general as well. As the names of hexaethyl tetraphosphate and tetraethyl pyrophosp...

Effect of hemoperfusion on acute injury induced by acute organic phosphorus pesticide poisoning

Objective: This study is to investigate the effect of hemoperfusion (HP) on acute lung injury induced by acute organophosphorus pesticide poisoning (AOPP). Methods: A total of 64 cases of patients with AOPP induced acute pulmonary edema from January 2013 to June 2014 were enrolled in this study. The patients were randomly divided into control group (receiving conventional medical treatment) and...
