A cutaneous test has been applied in examination of the flushing response to ethanol and acetaldehyde in 402 Chinese of Han ethnicity. Using this noninvasive method, five response subtypes have been observed: (A) fast flushing to both ethanol and acetaldehyde; (B) fast flushing only to ethanol but
Alcohol drinking increases the risk for a number of cancers. Currently, the highest risk (Group 1) concerns oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, esophagus, liver, colorectum, and female breast, as assessed by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). Alcohol and other beverage constituents,
Despite standardization, marked interindividual variation in the severity of the disulfiram-alcohol reaction (DAR) has been observed. We studied the DAR in 51 consecutive alcoholics with (n = 16) and without (n = 35) significant alcoholic liver disease. Clinical signs of the DAR were much weaker in
Hyperacetataemia during acetate haemodialysis has been associated with the development of a variety of unpleasant symptoms, although a direct toxic effect of acetate is hard to prove. Acetaldehyde, which is produced during the metabolism of ethanol to acetate, has various toxic effects including
BACKGROUND
Recent advances in the field of acetaldehyde (AcH) research have raised the need for a comprehensive review on the role of AcH in the actions of alcohol. This update is an attempt to summarize the available AcH research.
METHODS
The descriptive part of this article covers not only recent
Pharmacokinetic models for ethanol metabolism have contributed to the understanding of ethanol clearance in human beings. However, these models fail to account for ethanol's toxic metabolite, acetaldehyde. Acetaldehyde accumulation leads to signs and symptoms, such as cardiac arrhythmias, nausea,
Aims: Alcohol-related hangover symptoms: nausea, headache, stress and anxiety cause globally considerable amount of health problems and economic losses. Many of these harmful effects are produced by alcohol and its metabolite,
We have studied the interaction of viqualine, a 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) uptake inhibitor, with ethanol in 16 healthy men aged 20 to 34 years. The subjects were randomly assigned to receive ethanol dosed to maintain blood alcohol concentrations of 17-22 mmol.l-1 (n = 8) or orange juice (n = 8) on
Ingestion of a moderate dose of ethanol (0.8 g/kg) by volunteers prior to 4-h inhalation exposure to m-xylene (6.0 or 11.5 mmol/m3) caused marked alterations in xylene kinetics. After ethanol intake the blood xylene level rose about 1.5-2.0-fold and urinary methylhippuric acid excretion declined by
BACKGROUND
Disulfiram is a substance often used to treat alcohol dependency. The agent may be effective when used as supportive therapy. Disulfiram causes an accumulation of acetaldehyde when alcohol is consumed, which results in unpleasant sensations such as warmth, nausea, vomiting and
Liver alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) represents the main enzyme of normal alcohol metabolism. Total activity of this enzyme varies largely due to the occurrence of isoenzymes and of genetic polymorphisms. One genetic variant, called "atypical", is characterized by a higher specific activity. In
The aim of this original research is to evaluate the effect of SG on alcohol intake symptoms, blood alcohol content (BAC), and alcohol metabolite levels.At 0-6-12 months after SG, BAC of patients was measured at 0, 15, 30, and 60 min, and then every 30 min, Individuals with an inactive acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 have an. elevated level of serum acetaldehyde after drinking alcohol, and this may cause an alcohol flushing response with symptoms such as facial flushing, tachycardia, headache, and nausea. Recent studies have suggested that the flushing
The aim of this paper is to present a case of acute occupational mercury poisoning treated at the Clinical Department of Occupational Diseases. A welder, forty years old was employed at a large chemical plant in the dissembling department involved in the production of acetaldehyde. The patient was
A double-blind, placebo-controlled study in eight healthy male volunteers was conducted to study possible disulfiram-type reactions and hypoprothrombinemia associated with cefotetan administration. Three doses of cefotetan (2 g) or of placebo were administered at 12-h intervals. Ethanol (0.5 g/kg of
