Effect of Physical Form of Diet on Growth Performance and Immune Responses of Broilers under Stress Induced by Carbon Tetrachloride

  This study was conducted to examine the effects of physical form of diet on humoral and cellular immune responses in broiler chickens exposed to carbon tetrachloride stress in days 10 to 42 of age. The 2×3 factorial experiment performed in a randomized complete block design with 468 broilers in 6 treatments and 6 replicates of 13 birds each. The treatments consisted combinations of a grower d...

Patients With Carbon Monoxide Poisoning and Subsequent Dementia

The present study evaluated the dementia risk after carbon monoxide poisoning (CO poisoning). Using the National Health Insurance Research Database of Taiwan, a total of 9041 adults newly diagnosed with CO poisoning from 2000 to 2011 were identified as the CO poisoning cohort. Four-fold (N = 36,160) of non-CO poisoning insured people were randomly selected as controls, frequency-matched by age,...

Carbon monoxide poisoning in childhood.

Every winter the prolonged use of poorly maintained gas stoves in badly ventilated houses gives rise to several cases of carbon monoxide poisoning. The formation of this gas is a severe hazard because of its affinity for haemoglobin, which is about 300 times more than that for oxygen.' Moreover, carbon monoxide shifts to the left the dissociation curve of any oxyhaemoglobin that remains -and he...
