OBJECTIVE To assess the evolving global epidemiology of mushroom poisoning and to identify new and emerging mushroom poisonings and their treatments, a descriptive analysis and review of the world's salient scientific literature on mushroom poisoning was conducted. DATA SOURCE Data sources from observation studies conducted over the period 1959-2002, and describing 28,018 mushroom poisonings ...

In the first-order Raman spectrum of amorphous carbon (a-C) there is a low-frequency feature in the 200—900-cm ' region. This feature is characteristic of the highly disordered amorphous-carbon materials. We note that the intensity of this feature is very sensitive to the thermal history of samples, thus suggesting that it is an important measure of the degree of disorder of the a-C materials. ...

As an example of practical observation, the basic principles forensic medical assessment therapeutic and diagnostic processes are demonstrated in case suspicion improper provision toxicological care ethylene glycol poisoning. This study highlighted factors hindering its assessment.
 Factors such as lack information from eyewitnesses or patient himself about oral intake a liquid with potent...

BACKGROUND Patients treated for self-poisoning have an increased risk of death, both by natural and unnatural causes. The follow-up of these patients is therefore of great importance. The aim of this study was to explore the differences in psychosocial factors and referrals to follow-up among self-poisoning patients according to their evaluated intention. METHODS A cross-sectional multicenter...

BACKGROUND From January 2002 to May 2004, 28 puffer fish poisoning (PFP) cases in Florida, New Jersey, Virginia, and New York were linked to the Indian River Lagoon (IRL) in Florida. Saxitoxins (STXs) of unknown source were first identified in fillet remnants from a New Jersey PFP case in 2002. METHODS We used the standard mouse bioassay (MBA), receptor binding assay (RBA), mouse neuroblastom...

BACKGROUND The science of toxicology has a long history and been highly valued in Islamic countries. Numerous scientists were the expert in this field, particularly during the third and fourth centuries. Through reading such literature and gaining the experience of the scientists, one can use such valuable information to promote this science. METHODS In this article, different sources of trad...

Poisoning attacks are emerging threats to deep neural networks where the adversaries attempt compromise models by injecting malicious data points in clean training data. target either availability or integrity of a model. The attack aims degrade overall accuracy while causes misclassification only for specific instances without affecting Although clean-label proven be effective recent studies, ...

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the cause acute fatal poisoning and time death by analyzing National Emergency Department Information System (NEDIS) South Korea. Methods: NEDIS data from 2014 2018 excluding non-medical visits were used for study. patients with extracted using diagnostic codes. toxic substances classified into pharmaceuticals, pesticides, gases, artificial ...
