AbstractObjectives: This study was conducted to compare the subjective sleep quality of a group of chemical warfare veterans and a sample of healthy controls. Method: Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to assess the sleep quality of 78 chemical warfare veterans as well as 65 controls. Results: 73 subjects (93%) in the case group and 39 subjects (60%) in the control group were poor ...
psychological trauma may result in depression. veterans are particularly prone to development of depression. 100 male veterans (39 injured by chemical and 61 by non-chemical warfare) with 30% to 70% of physical disability were compared with 100 age- and sex-matched individuals selected from general population serving as comparison group. the diagnosis of depression was made according to the dsm...
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has developed a categorical logistic regression approach for regressing ordered response categories on one or more factors due to toxicant exposures. This approach can also be used in analyzing chemical warfare agent toxicity. Towards this end, three previous mammalian studies (involving acute inhalation exposures to G-type nerve agents) were reviewed an...
DNA is a major cellular target of the vesicant chemical warfare agent sulfur mustard (SM, bis-(2-chloroethyl) sulfide). Others and we have proposed a possible role of apoptosis in SM vesication. Our results suggest that in SM-exposed human epidermal keratinocytes (HEK), DNA damage, DNA repair, and apoptosis may be interdependent. In HEK, SM causes cell death accompanied by caspase-3 activation ...
Abstract Following the release of a chemical warfare agent, it is crucial for public health that affected environment entirely decontaminated. If agent has seeped into porous building material, decontamination achieved by applying cleanser solution to surface and allowing react in, neutralising agent. Typically, are immiscible fluids so reaction occurs at fluid–fluid interfaces within pores. Pr...
Background and Aim: Sulfur mustard (Mustard gas) is the most famed chemical warfare agent that caused chronic lung damage. Oxidative stress is known as a major cause of mustard lung pathogenesis. This study aimed to introduce antioxidant tablets of Iranian N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) as an effective treatment for chronic lung damage caused by mustard gas. Methods: This study was performed as a doub...
The World Health Organization recommends countries to create a public health system that can respond to the deliberate release of chemical warfare agents (CWAs). Procedures for preparedness, response, decontamination protocols and medical countermeasures against CWA attacks are described. Known CWAs, including their properties and pharmacological consequences upon exposure, are tabulated and di...

Sulfur mustard has been used as a vesicant chemical warfare agent. To investigate the ocular damage it causes, we studied the effects on chemical casualties in the Iran-Iraq War. The patient population consisted of more than 5,000 chemical casualties, both military and civilian. The range of ocular damage was wide. The most common ocular effects were conjunctivitis and photophobia. Patients wit...
