Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) encode essential alcohol-metabolizing enzymes. While alcohol use is associated with spontaneously deep intracerebral haemorrhage (SDICH), particularly in males, the activities and genetic variants of ADH and ALDH may affect SDICH
OBJECTIVE
To test whether alcohol intake, both observational and estimated by genetic instruments, is associated with risk of ischemic and haemorrhagic stroke.
METHODS
We used data from the Copenhagen City Heart Study 1991 to 1994 and 2001 to 2003, and the Copenhagen General Population Study 2003 to
A fatality of an inpatient ingesting a disinfectant containing ethanol, propan-1-ol, and propan-2-ol is reported. The alleged survival time was about 1 h. Major findings at autopsy were an extended hemorrhagic lung edema, an edematous brain, and shock kidneys. Concentrations of alcohols and acetone,
4-Methylpyrazole (4-MP), a specific inhibitor of alcohol dehydrogenase, exerts gastroprotection of unusually long duration in rats. We tested the hypothesis that pretreatment with 4-MP might protect the human gastric mucosa against alcohol-induced acute injury. Fourteen healthy volunteers received
1. Endosulfan insecticide is a polychlorinated compound used for controlling a variety of insects; it is practically water-insoluble, but readily adheres to clay particles and persists in soil and water for several years. Its mode of action involves repetitive nerve-discharges positively correlated
Alcohol elimination was examined in 10 patients involved in accidents while intoxicated. The influence of trauma, particularly polytrauma resulting in haemorrhage shock and its therapeutic treatment were analysed. The blood alcohol concentrations were determined according to the usual forensic
The morphological and biochemical changes of the liver after endotoxin intake were analyzed in rats receiving 20% ethanol during 60 days. Besides morphological changes, concentration of serotonin and histamine in liver homogenates, the activity of asparagine and alanine aminotransferases (AspAT,
The effects of ethanol upon the gastrointestinal tract (mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, duodenum, Oddi's sphincter, small bowel, colon and rectum) were reviewed. Several studies showed that the incidence of cancer in the mouth and pharynx is increased in alcoholics as a consequence of ethanol
The frequent use of alcohol (ethanol) together with prescription drugs gives any described pharmacokinetic interaction significant clinical implications. The issue is both the effect of alcohol on the pharmacokinetics of various drugs and also the effect of those drugs on the pharmacokinetics of
OBJECTIVE
Methanol poisoning can induce death and disability. Treatment includes the administration of antidotes (ethanol or fomepizole and folic/folinic acid) and consideration of extracorporeal treatment for correction of acidemia and/or enhanced elimination. The Extracorporeal Treatments in
