Organophosphorus pesticide self-poisoning is an important clinical problem in rural regions of the developing world, and kills an estimated 200,000 people every year. Unintentional poisoning kills far fewer people but is a problem in places where highly toxic organophosphorus pesticides are available. Medical management is difficult, with case fatality generally more than 15%. We describe the l...
Pesticides can increase productivity in agriculture. Excessive and uncontrolled use of pesticides pose a risk poisoning farmers. Decreased levels cholinesterase enzymes characterize poisoning. The duration spraying is an indicator that affect the enzyme. This study aimed to determine how long affects enzyme farmers who organophosphate pesticides. Examination using enzymatic test method. most co...
Mounting evidence suggests that pollinators worldwide are experiencing dramatic population declines, and exposure to pesticides is one of the factors that can account for this. By making use of a database containing more than two decades of honey bee (Apis mellifera) hive poisoning incidents from the United Kingdom (Wildlife Incident Investigation Scheme [WIIS]) and corresponding pesticide use ...
INTRODUCTION Understanding the epidemiologic profile of a particular disease is key to undertake health actions. To that end, information systems that present quality data help in the decision-making process and demonstrate the impact of the problems. OBJECTIVE To analyze the contribution of health information systems for the characterization of pesticide poisoning through SINAN, CEATOX and S...
Pesticides are a collective term for a wide array of chemicals intended to kill unwanted insects, plants, molds, and rodents. Food, water, and treatment in the home, yard, and school are all potential sources of children's exposure. Exposures to pesticides may be overt or subacute, and effects range from acute to chronic toxicity. In 2008, pesticides were the ninth most common substance reporte...
Self-poisoning with organophosphate pesticides is a major health problem world-wide. Through the inhibition of acetylcholinesterase, organophosphorus poisoning is characterised by the clinical picture of acute cholinergic crisis. Other manifestations are the intermediate neurotoxic syndrome and delayed polyneuropathy. In the Western world, the occurrence of organophosphorus poisoning is less pr...
(5-year incidence of major vascular events 9%) infl ates the estimate of absolute benefi t from 1·5% (our estimate) to 2·5%. The CTT collaborators have primary prevention outcome data that can resolve the issues we raise. Subpopulations of particular interest include: men, women, men aged 70 years or older, women below the age of 70 years, people with diabetes mellitus, 20% of people with the l...
We read with interest the paper by Sungar and Güven [1], which described a case series of organophosphorus pesticide (OP)-poisoned patients managed in their intensive care unit. It clearly demonstrates the difficulty in managing such patients in resource-poor areas [2]. However, we should like to query some issues in their management of OP poisoning and their use of pralidoxime. We cannot under...
Bt cotton is spreading very rapidly in China, in response to demand from farmers for technology that will reduce both the cost of pesticide applications and exposure to pesticides, and will free up time for other tasks. Based on surveys of hundreds of farmers in the Yellow River cotton-growing region in northern China in 1999, 2000 and 2001, over 4 million smallholders have been able to increas...
Introduction The significant and multiple benefits that Genetically Engineered (GE) crops have generated, including increased yield and lower production costs due to reduced insecticide applications, have been well documented in the literature1-2. However, the impact of GE crops on farmers’ health due to the reduction of pesticide use has not been rigorously analyzed. While previous studies hav...
