Chlorfenapyr is a liposoluble insecticide belonging to the pyrrole family.Chlorfenapyr is activated when the N-ethoxymethyl side chain breaks,forming a toxic metabolite,which uncouples oxidative phosphorylation in the mitochondria,inhibits the production of adenosine triphosphate(ATP),and leads to the death of cells and target organisms.[1]Symptoms of chlorfenapyr poisoning in patients are mild and atypical in the early stage,especially in patients receiving low dose exposure;however,such cases are rare and may be ignored by physicians,often leading to delayed treatment.[2,3]Once the hypothalamus thermoregulatory center and medulla oblongata respiratory and heartbeat centers are involved,patients often develop hyperthermic coma,leading to death.
Background The objective of this study was to examine the relationship of mental health status between self-poisoning suicide patients and their family members, and it also sought to identify potential patient’s risk and parental factors for the prediction of suicide attempt, anxiety, and depression. Methods In this study, 151 poisoned patients were prospectively included, and they were matched 1:1 with 151 family members. We gathered information on patient’s and their matched family member’s demographics, lifestyle choices, mental health status, level of intimacy, and history of psychiatry disease. The relationship of patient’s and their family member’s mental health state was investigated using a correlation matrix. Multivariable analyses (multiple logistic regression) were conducted among patients and their matched family members, to identify potential risk factors for self-poisoning suicide, anxiety, and depression. Results Of the total patients, 67.55% (102/151) attempted self-poisoning suicide. Poisoned patients had more severe anxiety and depression symptoms than their matched family members, and this difference was even more pronounced among patients with self-poisoning suicide. Generalized anxiety disorder-7 (GAD-7) score for family members was significantly and favorably correlated with patient’s GAD-7 score after eliminating non-suicide patients and their matched family members. The patient health questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) score showed a similar pattern, and the family member’s PHQ-9 score was strongly and favorably associated with patient’s PHQ-9 and Beck hopelessness scale-20 (BHS-20) score. Multivariable analysis showed that married marital status ( P = 0.038), quitting smoking ( P = 0.003), sedentary time of 1 to 6 h ( P = 0.013), and participation in a sports more than five times per week ( P = 0.046) were all significantly associated with a lower risk of suicide by self-poisoning, while a more serious anxiety state ( P = 0.001) was significantly associated with a higher risk of self-poisoning suicide. Multivariable analysis demonstrated that, specifically among self-poisoning suicide patients, married marital status ( P = 0.011) and no history of psychiatry disease ( P < 0.001) were protective factors for anxiety, while divorced or widowed marital status ( P = 0.004), a sedentary time of 1 to 3 h ( P = 0.022), and a higher monthly income ( P = 0.027) were significant contributors to anxiety. The propensity of additional family-matched characteristics to predict patient’s suicidality, anxiety, and depression was also examined. Conclusions Self-poisoning suicide patients have severe mental health issues. Patients who self-poison have a close connection to their family member’s mental health, particularly their levels of anxiety and depression. According to the findings, being married and adopting healthy lifestyle habits, such as quitting smoking and drinking, increasing their physical activity levels, and managing their idle time, are able to help patients with mental health concerns and even suicidal thoughts.
Colchicine is a neutral lipophilic tricyclic alkaloid toxic to human cells containing tubulin,[1-2] and primarily stops the proliferation of active cells in the mitotic metaphase, such as intestinal mucosal cells and hematopoietic cells. It is widely used in treating gout and familial Mediterranean fever, while it is also used in establishing animal and plant experimental model.[3] In the recent study, treatment of patients affected by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) with colchicine may prove a viable path.[4] The course of colchicine poisoning can be divided into three stages,[5] and most of the patients died in the second stage (2–7 d, the multiple organ injury stage). The cause of death was heart failure [6] and bone marrow hematopoietic failure in the terminal phase.[7] Hematopoiesis is a classic sign of colchicine poisoning. Many cases of colchicine poisoning have been comprehensively reported, and the target organs included heart, digestive tract, muscle, lung, kidney, hematopoietic system, etc.[8-11] This study aimed to investigate the injury of bone marrow hematopoietic system after colchicine poisoning and evaluate the therapeutic effect of bone marrow hematopoietic stimulation drugs.
双硫仑(disulfiran)样反应又称戒酒硫样反应,作用机制与双硫仑反应机制类似,主要是特定药物因分子结构中含特殊基团与乙醇相互作用而抑制乙醇的代谢,导致人体乙醛增多和儿茶酚胺类物质减少引起的临床症状[1].近年来,服用头孢类药物期间或前后饮酒而出现双硫仑样反应的报道较多,未见服用治疗肩周炎药物后饮酒引起双硫仑样反应的报道.解放军总医院第五医学中心南院区中毒救治中心于2019年1月31日成功救治1例口服肩周炎药物饮酒后引起酒精中毒伴双硫仑样反应的患者,现将救治与护理过程汇报如下.

Objective To explore the safety management of pickup and transportation of acute severe poisoning patients (ASP) by medical rescue helicopters. Methods For the task of pickup and transportation of six ASPs,we quickly started an emergency rescue plans including establishing a rescue team, preparing for first-aid medicine and equipment, preparing for intensive care unit in Poisoning Treatment Center, completing safety management carefully before and during the pickup and transportation such as logistic service,environmental safety,timely diagnosis,cooperation in different departments and handover of patients'information.Results Six ASPs were picked up and transported smoothly without any accidents. The average length of stay was 55.5 days. Two patients were discharged with good outcome but two patients with critical condition were discharged without any rescue or treatment under the will of family members and two died. Conclusion A detailed plan plays an important role in the safety management of pickup and transportation of ASPs. Great importance attached by leaders of the hospital, coordination and cooperation of different departments and a well-trained, professional rescue team for emergency transport and poisoning treatment contribute to the success of pickup and transportation.
