aluminum phosphide (alp) is a highly effective rodenticide which is used as a suicide poison. herein, a 24 year-old man who’d intentionally ingested about 1liter of alcohol and one tablet of alp is reported. acute myocardial infarction due to alp poisoning has been occurred secondary to aip poisoning. cardiovascular complications are poor prognostic factors in alp poisoning

background treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction (ami) is time related, so delay in treatment could affect prognosis. recognizing pre-hospital or in-hospital delays in initiating treatment and reducing these factors is very efficacious in treatment of these patients. results 35.7% patients arrived during one hour of symptom onset, and 7.9% arrived after 24 hours. patients havin...

introduction: cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction, is associated with progressive ventricular dysfunction and cardiovascular death. the purpose of this study was to examine the effect of endurance exercise training on morphological changes in rat heart tissue following experimental myocardial infarction. materials and methods: rats used in this experiment (8-10 weeks old, 235 ± 5 g b...

Serum IgE and beta 2 microglobulin levels were determined in 31 patients suffering from acute myocardial infarction and 30 patients with other forms of ischemic heart disease. The levels of these parameters were studied on the first, third and seventh day after the onset of disease. The immunological method used for the determinations was ELISA Patients with myocardial infarction showed an...

background :impact of substance abuse on outcome of hospitalized patients with acute myocardial infarction (mi) is a frequent question. available studies show disagreements over its impact, thus we performed this study to find a clear answer.   methods : in a cross sectional study, 304 patients (include 152 consecutive opium dependents and equal number of independents) with acute mi admitted to...

objective(s) several studies have reported improved response of exercised hearts to myocardial infarction (mi). this study was aimed to evaluate the preventive role of treadmill exercise and diosgenin on cardiac marker enzymes, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (tbars), total antioxidant status (tas), lipids, and electrocardiographic (ecg) patterns in isoproterenol (iso)-induced myocardia...

background: studies on the prognosis of st elevation myocardial infarction (stemi) versus non-st elevation myocardial infarction (non-stemi) have shown different results. the present study was designed to compare the early outcome and left ventricular systolic function of patients with st and non-st elevation myocardial infarction. methods: the patients' information was derived from 10,065 cons...

introduction: myocardial infarction (mi) is associated with increased oxidative stress and reduced antioxidants. some studies have shown that exercise training increases the serum level antioxidants. therefore, this study investigated the effect of rehabilitation training on antioxidant status in patients with myocardial infarction. materials and methods: in this study, 20 patients with myocard...

Introduction: Cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction, is associated with progressive ventricular dysfunction and cardiovascular death. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of endurance exercise training on morphological changes in rat heart tissue following experimental myocardial infarction. Materials and methods: Rats used in this experiment (8-10 weeks old, 235 &p...
