متن کاملAllergic alveolitis following exposure to epoxy polyester powder paint containing low amounts (<1%) of acid anhydrides.
Only one case report concerning allergic alveolitis caused by polyester powder paint has been published previously. The aim of this study was to determine whether phthalic anhydride (PA) or trimellitic anhydride (TMA) is the alveolitis-causing agent in such paint. A 61 year old woman showed recurrent symptoms of chills, cough, and fever whilst at work. She was working in a plant where epoxy pol...
متن کاملNeonatal respiratory morbidity following exposure to chorioamnionitis
BACKGROUND There are conflicting results in the literature on the impact of chorioamnionitis on neonatal respiratory morbidities.

This study aimed to determine whether chorioamnionitis affects the incidence of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) and bronchopulmonary dysplasia...

This state remitted over a 3-day period, but was followed by transient bone marrow suppression and evidence of liver cell damage. The corroborated absence of other toxins and the temporal association of exposure to paint fumes suggest that a volatile paint ...
متن کاملHistological Changes in the Lungs of Adult Wistar Rats following Exposure to Paint Fumes
Whether through employment, home remodeling, or through any contact, a large majority of us get exposed to hazardous paint fumes throughout our lifetime. The present work investigated the effect of paint fumes on the histology of the lungs. Sixteen adult male Wistar rats weighing about 130-160 g were used for the study. The rats were divided into four groups A-D of four rats per group. Groups A...
