Review was made of the symptoms, treatment and outcome of 151 cases of severe envenomation by the scorpion Centruroides sculpturatus treated with antivenom, 1988-1989. The most frequent symptoms were restlessness, nystagmus, paresthesiae, hypersalivation, fasciculation, blurred vision and dysphagia with an average of four symptoms. Medications before antivenom, given to about half of the subjec...
Wasp stings are not uncommon in Nepal. The manifestations of stings are usually benign and localised at the site of stings. However, susceptible individuals may present with multi-systemic and potentially fatal complications. We report here a child who developed acute kidney injury, nine days after multiple wasp stings. The renal function recovered with supportive management including two sessi...
The episodic nature of natural selection and the accumulation of extreme sequence divergence in venom-encoding genes over long periods of evolutionary time can obscure the signature of positive Darwinian selection. Recognition of the true biocomplexity is further hampered by the limited taxon selection, with easy to obtain or medically important species typically being the subject of intense ve...
The aim of this study was to assess the correlation between platelet indices and scorpion envenomations (SE). Medical records of 76 children who were hospitalised for scorpion stings in the paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) between February 2013 and November 2013, and 55 healthy children who were similar to the patient group in terms of age and sex, were analysed retrospectively. The leucoc...
Fatalities among avian species due to multiple bee stings are rare. Sixteen pigeons on a farm in Bangladesh each suffered multiple bee stings. Ten of the pigeons died before treatment, 5 (4–11 stings) died within 12 hr after treatment, and 1 pigeon (only 3 stings) survived. Body temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, hematocrit, hemoglobin, erythrocytes, thrombocytes, MCV, MCH and MCHC decr...
Acute lung injury following envenomation by Tityus scorpion species is due in part to activation of the inflammatory response leading to release of cytotoxic leukocyte-derived products, including cytokines and possibly reactive oxygen species (ROS). Tityus zulianus envenomation in Venezuela produces cardiorespiratory complications and death by lung injury whereas stings by Tityus discrepans pro...
OBJECTIVE To study cardiovascular haemodynamics following scorpion envenomation. SETTING Intensive care unit of a university hospital. PATIENTS Eight patients with Indian red scorpion (Mesobuthus tamulus) stings. INTERVENTION Captopril (6.25 to 12.5 mg orally) every 30 minutes until pulmonary oedema resolved. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Haemodynamic data obtained by pulmonary artery catheteri...
In most patients, wasp stings cause local reactions and rarely anaphylaxis. Acute kidney injury and rhabdomyolysis are unusual complications of wasp stings. We report a case of acute kidney injury and rhabdomyolysis secondary to multiple wasp stings. A 55-year-old farmer developed multi organ dysfunction with acute kidney injury and rhabdomyolysis 3 days after he had sustained multiple wasp sti...
Venomous catfish stings are a common environment hazard worldwide. Although these stings are often innocuous, significant morbidity may result from stings, including severe pain, retained foreign bodies, infection, respiratory compromise, arterial hypotension, and cardiac dysrhythmias. Treatment included hot water immersion, analgesia, wound exploration, and prophylactic antibiotics. In this ar...
