Headache is one of the most common causes of presentation to the physician in children. We aimed to evaluate the dynamic thiol/disulfide homeostasis with a new method in children with headache and also to investigate the relationship between the headache type, pain severity and duration in our
The work aimed at defining the pattern and frequency of rhythm disturbances in basic brain bioelectric activity in EEG recordings, routinely regarded as normal, in workers exposed to chronic carbon disulfide (CS2) poisoning, without detected symptoms of organic lesions in the nervous system. The
Objective: To investigate the clinical features of occupational chronic carbon disulfide(CS(2)) poisoning. Methods: A total of 372 patients with occupational chronic CS(2) poisoning were selected from a chemical fiber factory, and their clinical features were summarized and analyzed. Results: Major
OBJECTIVE
To study the effects of carbon disulfide (CS(2)) on the health of workers, and to provide the basis for the further preventive measures.
METHODS
The occupational health examination of 881 workers exposed to CS(2) in a chemical fiber factory was carried out according to the national
Long-term exposure to carbon disulfide (CS(2)) may induce diffuse encephalopathy with parkinsonism, pyramidal signs, cerebellar ataxia, and cognitive impairments, as well as axonal polyneuropathy. The pathogenic mechanisms of diffuse encephalopathy are unclear, although vasculopathy and toxic
Dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) is a new soil fumigant that is considered a replacement for methyl bromide. In 2014, the Florida Department of Health (FDOH) received several complaints of illness following a strong DMDS odor in Hillsborough County. Public health investigation of DMDS-related illness was
To understand central nervous damage after long-term exposure to carbon disulfide (CS2), 10 patients who had polyneuropathy with various neuropsychiatric symptoms in a viscose rayon plant were studied. Clinical and laboratory examinations including electroencephalography (EEG), brain computed
The authors examined clinically 1710 women. Among them 199 women with symptoms of menopause were selected and divided into two groups: group I (control) included 80 women without contact with carbon disulphide and group II (examined) included 119 women chronically exposed to carbon disulphide at a
An hygienic survey for hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan and its derivatives and sulfur dioxide in kraft mills and in sulfite mills revealed concentrations varying from 0 to 20 ppm hydrogen sulfide, 0 to 15 ppm methyl mercaptan and comparable amounts of dimethyl sulfide with dimethyl disulfide up
Potassium channels are involved in the maintenance of resting membrane potential, control of cardiac and neuronal excitability, neurotransmitters release, muscle contractility and hormone secretion. The Tityus stigmurus scorpion is widely distributed in Northeastern Brazil and known to cause severe
Dicarbonyl stress is a dysfunctional state consisting in the abnormal accumulation of reactive α-oxaldehydes leading to increased protein modification. In cells, post-translational changes can also occur through S-glutathionylation, a highly conserved oxidative post-translational modification
Botulinum toxin (BoNT) is a potent neurotoxin that is produced by the gram-positive, spore-forming, anaerobic bacterium, Clostridum botulinum. There are 7 known immunologically distinct serotypes of BoNT: types A, B, C1, D, E, F, and G. Clostridum neurotoxins are produced as a single inactive
