BACKGROUND Iraq used chemical weapons against thousands of Iranian militaries and civilians. This study aimed to compare the chronic cutaneous side effects of exposure to sulfur mustard (SM) with nerve agents (NA). METHODS The study enrolled 154 SM exposed cases and 175 (NA) exposed cases. Presence of any late cutaneous manifestations was evaluated by a dermatologist via prior history of acut...
OBJECTIVES To determine the levels of vascular endothelial growth factor isoform consisting of 165 amino acids (VEGF165) in Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid from Mustard Exposed Patients. METHODS Bronchoscopy with Bronchoalveolar Lavage was performed on sulphur mustard exposed patients. A total of 39 patients with documented exposure to Sulfur Mustard during the Iran-Iraq war participated in this...
The patients evaluated in this study were classified into three groups of severe, moderate, and mild according to the severity of exposure to sulfur mustard. We evaluated the Immunological and Cytogenetical status of the patients after eight years of their exposure to sulfur mustard. The investigations revealed that the number of neutrophils, lymphocytes and monocytes in the patients with sever...
Background and Aim: Sulfur mustard (Mustard gas) is the most famed chemical warfare agent that caused chronic lung damage. Oxidative stress is known as a major cause of mustard lung pathogenesis. This study aimed to introduce antioxidant tablets of Iranian N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) as an effective treatment for chronic lung damage caused by mustard gas. Methods: This study was performed as a doub...
in the last few years many chemically injured patients have been visited throughout the country in order to investigate the late respiratory complications of sulfur mustard. 35 patients who were previously admitted for mustard poisoning underwent complete clinical examination as well as spirometry, fiberoptic bronchoscopy (fob), bronchoalveolar lavage (bal), and trans bronchial lung biopsy (tbl...
Purpose: To review current knowledge about ocular effects of sulfur mustard (SM) and the associated histopathologic findings and clinical manifestations Methods: Literature review of medical articles (human and animal studies) was accomplished using PubMed, Scopus and ISI databases. A total of 274 relevant articles in English were retrieved and reviewed thoroughly. Results: Eyes are the most se...
a 41-year-old man was referred with a complaint of visual loss in his left eye and his best corrected visual acuity was 20/80. slit lamp examination showed arborizing conjunctival vessels and dry eye. fundus examination and fluorescein angiography revealed a non-ischemic central retinal vein occlusion. cardiovascular, rheumatologic, and hematologic work up showed no abnormal findings. an ascert...
Background and Objectives: Pulmonary complications are one of the most important long-term sulfur mustard (SM) exposure that chemical victims are suffering for years. IL-21 is one of the important cytokines contributing in chronic pulmonary inflammatory diseases. In this study, the serum and sputum levels of IL-21 and their correlations with pulmonary complications was evaluated 27 years after ...
Background: Inflammatory responses in individuals exposed to sulfur mustard occur in some organs such as lung, skin and eyes. These organs manifest overreaction in cellular and humoral immune responses. Over a long period, the immune responses often continues toward chronic inflammatory processes with some interventions. Obviously some elements have been deregulated. Therefore, this study evalu...
بررسی اثر سولفورموستارد بر وضعیت متیلاسیون پروموتر ژن FOXP3 در جانبازان شیمیایی با عوارض تأخیری ریوی
Background and Objective: Sulfur mustard (SM) is a toxic and chemical agent. The incidence of pulmonary complications and inflammatory processes play an important role in SM-exposed individuals. FOXP3 is one of the important factors in the development of chronic pulmonary diseases. FOXP3 gene promoter due to exposure to chemical and toxic materials leads to chronic pulmonary disease. In this st...
