Background. Seizures of both immediate and delayed onset after ingestion of bupropion SR and bupropion XL formulations are well documented, but are less well characterized after insufflation. Bupropion is crushed and insufflated to experience a high similar to that from amphetamines and cocaine. We sought to characterize the abuse of bupropion via insufflation in cases reported to the California Poison Control System (CPCS) and the incidence of seizures. Methods: An 11-year (2002–2012) retrospective observational case series of insufflated bupropion exposures evaluated in a health care facility (HCF) were reviewed after searching our database for all bupropion insufflation exposures. Patients with coingestants, multiple exposure routes, or age less than 18 were excluded. Data included age, gender, estimated bupropion dose, occurrence of pre-HCF seizures, symptoms and vital signs reported to the CPCS, treatments, and adverse events that occurred until time of discharge. Results: 74 cases were identified (1 excluded due to age, 5 excluded due to additional oral ingestion of bupropion, and 1 excluded due to being unable to follow). A total of 67 cases met inclusion criteria. The median age was 36 (range, 18–65) years. The total dose of bupropion insufflated was reported in 52 pts; median dose of 1500 (range, 100–9000) mg. Eighteen cases (27%) involved staggered or chronic exposures. Of the 67 patients, 20 (30%) experienced a seizure prior to arrival at the HCF. Of these, 19 patients (95%) presented with tachycardia. None of these patients had a second seizure in the emergency department. There were no major medical outcomes and no deaths. Of the 67 patients, 9 patients received benzodiazepines and 6 patients received single-dose activated charcoal. Conclusion: The abuse of bupropion by crushing and insufflating through the nose is uncommon (67/2270 or 3.0%) compared with that by oral bupropion exposures reported to CPCS. Seizures are common but are self-limited. Delayed seizures (more than 8 h after exposure) appear to be rare. Tachycardia is present in almost all patients who have seizures. 相似文献

Delayed recovery associated with persistent serum concentrations after clozapine overdose 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Experience with managing overdoses of the atypical antipsychotic agent, clozapine, has been limited. A 20-year-old woman, who presented 6 h after ingesting 3500 mg of clozapine, had an unexpectedly prolonged duration of tachycardia and somnolence. Successful recovery followed management with supportive measures for several days in the intensive care unit. However, the duration of symptoms greatly exceeded that predicted by the published 12-h half-life of clozapine and was associated with an unexplained persistence of serum clozapine concentrations. Recovery with normalization of autonomic function occurred only after serum clozapine began to decline again after a 4-day plateau, as revealed by serum monitoring. Similar observations have been reported in two other cases. In overdose, clozapine may not behave as predicted by its published pharmacokinetics. Persistent serum drug concentrations may prolong the period of intensive care, suggesting that aggressive measures to remove clozapine from the gut at the time of overdose may be warranted. 相似文献

Epirubicin is one of the less cardiotoxic alternatives to doxorubicin. We were interested in studying the cardiotoxic effect of the total cumulative dose, and weekly schedules of low compared to high dose intensity. Fifty-seven patients were treated with different epirubicin-containing regimens. We confirm the classical notion that total cumulative doses of less than 600 mg/m2 do not induce significant cardiotoxicity, whereas doses above 600 mg/m2 are associated with a trend towards cardiotoxicity. Patients receiving a high weekly dose intensity ( > 40 mg/m2), however, did have a significantly lower incidence of cardiotoxicity than those receiving a low dose intensity per week (<40 mg/m2) (22.8% versus 50%;P<0.05). We identified the association of a dose intensity of more than 40 mg m–2/week–1 and a cumulative dose of 400–899 mg/m2 or a dose intensity of less that 40 mg m–2/week–1 and a cumulative dose of less than 400 mg/m2 to have the lowest incidence rate of cardiotoxicity. We conclude from this study that epirubicin in weekly schedules of high dose intensity is not more cardiotoxic than in weekly schedules of low dose intensity. 相似文献

Elevated serum bilirubin concentrations protect from atherosclerotic diseases; however, it is not clear whether higher serum bilirubin concentrations in physiological ranges do the same. To investigate the association of high and low serum bilirubin concentrations with left ventricular diastolic function and aortic elastic properties. We evaluated left ventricular diastolic function and aortic elastic properties of 42 healthy subjects with hypobilirubinemia (total bilirubin 0.40 ± 0.08 mg/dl; mean age 37.0 ± 3.9) and 40 healthy subjects with hyperbilirubinemia (total bilirubin 1.56 ± 0.49 mg/dl; mean age 36.2 ± 6.0) using transthoracic second harmonic Doppler echocardiography. Age, gender, body mass index and coronary risk factors were similar between the groups, except high‐sensitivity C‐reactive protein (hsCRP). Left ventricular diastolic parameters were similar between the two groups. Aortic distensibility (AoD) was found to be significantly lower (11.1 ± 3.9 vs. 13.2 ± 4.9, p = 0.03) and aortic stiffness index (AoSI) (1.99 ± 0.30 vs. 1.85 ± 0.26, p = 0.02) and elastic modulus (AoEM) (2.06 ± 0.83 vs. 1.73 ± 0.68, p = 0.03; the low and high bilirubin groups, respectively) higher in the low bilirubin group. Serum total bilirubin concentration correlated with hsCRP levels, AoD, AoSI and AoEM. In conclusion, left ventricular systolic and diastolic functions were similar between hypo‐ and hyperbilirubinemic subjects, but aortic elastic properties were impaired in subjects with lower serum bilirubin concentrations. 相似文献

ObjectivesThe matrix protein hyaluronic acid (HA, hyaluronan) has possibly additional immune-regulatory functions in inflammation. We aimed at evaluating serum HA concentrations in critically ill patients.Design and methodsWe analyzed serum HA levels in 164 critically ill patients at a medical ICU and 61 healthy controls, with respect to organ dysfunction, systemic inflammation and mortality.ResultsHyaluronan serum concentrations upon admission to ICU were significantly elevated in critically ill patients compared to healthy controls, with the highest levels in patients with pre-existing liver cirrhosis or sepsis. HA levels were closely correlated with biomarkers of hepatic and renal function, systemic inflammation, demand of treatment measures and clinical scores of disease severity, but could not predict risk of mortality.ConclusionsMeasurement of serum HA may supplement the assessment of disease severity in ICU patients. Our data suggest that HA might have implications in the pathogenesis of critical illness and sepsis. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Serum C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations were measured longitudinally throughout pregnancy to test the hypothesis that CRP could relate more closely to glucose tolerance than to adiposity. METHODS: The CRP concentrations in pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and those with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) were measured at the same time as the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), at the 24th and 28th weeks of gestation and between the 37th and 38th weeks of gestation. RESULTS: At the end of the third trimester, women with GDM had significantly higher CRP levels than women with NGT [median (interquartile range), 9.7 mg L(-1) (5.4-16.0) and 5.7 mg L(-1) (5.1-7.2); P < 0.001, respectively], but at the time of the diagnostic OGTT no significant difference between the two groups was observed. This was owing to a significant increase of CRP in women with GDM between the time of the OGTT and the 37th-38th gestational weeks [median (interquartile range), 1.9 mg L(-1) (-2.2, 6.7); P = 0.01]; whereas, no change in CRP was found in women with NGT [median (interquartile range), -0.1 mg L(-1) (-2.4, 3.1); P = 0.76]. Multiple linear regression analysis showed only a significant independent influence of GDM (P < 0.001) on maternal CRP concentrations in the 37th-38th gestational weeks and a significant influence of body mass index (P < 0.007), but no influence of GDM at the time of the OGTT. CONCLUSION: These data suggest that in women with gestational diabetes the CRP concentration is primarily related to the degree of adiposity until the second trimester and that thereafter impaired glucose metabolism appears to be the predominant predictor of changes in CRP. 相似文献

BackgroundVitamin D deficiency plays an essential role in allergic rhinitis(AR), but the role of vitamin D deficiency in perennial allergic rhinitis (pAR) remains unclear. Therefore, our study explored 25(OH)D levels in patients with pAR and healthy individuals in a single center in China for three years.MethodsA total of 655 patients with pAR and 682 healthy controls were enrolled in this study from 2015 to 2017. Patients'' clinical history and symptoms were recorded. sIgE tests were performed using the allergen detection system (UniCAP), and the ADVIA centaur XP system (SIEMENS) was used to measure serum 25(OH)D levels.ResultsSerum 25(OH)D levels were significantly different between the pAR group and control group over the three‐year study period(all P < .05). Specifically, 25(OH)D levels were decreased in the pAR groups over three years. Serum25(OH)D deficiency, insufficiency, and sufficiency were noted in 66.9% ~71.9%, 22.5% ~29.4%, and 2.5%~5.6%, respectively, of patients in the pAR group and 53.2%~60.7%, 31.4%~36.6%, and 7.9% ~11.4%, respectively, of participants in the control group. We did not identify significant associations between serum 25(OH)D levels and clinical characteristics of patients with pAR over the three‐year period (all P > .05) after adjusting for sex, age, duration of disease, total nasal symptom score (TNSS), sIgE levels, number of positive allergens, and family history.ConclusionpAR patients exhibited lower serum 25(OH)D levels compared with healthy people with a high prevalence of 25(OH)D deficiency or insufficiency. We did not identify a significant correlation between 25(OH)D and pAR associated factors. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the significance of moderate elevations of serum troponin I in a surgical intensive care unit patient population in terms of its impact on indexes of outcome including mortality, morbidity, and hospital and intensive care unit length of stay. DESIGN: Retrospective chart review and analysis of clinical data. SETTING: A surgical intensive care unit at a tertiary care hospital. PATIENTS: From the 27-month surgical intensive care unit database of admissions, 869 patients with serum troponin I determinations during their admission were identified. Patients who had cardiac surgery were excluded. INTERVENTIONS: None. MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS: Patients were divided into four groups based on their maximum serum troponin I concentrations. Hospital mortality, incidence of myocardial infarction, and hospital and intensive care unit length of stays were compared. Patients with moderate elevations of serum troponin I (0.4-2.0 microg/L) had a significantly higher mortality rate (chi-square = 32.57, p <.0001) and longer length of intensive care unit and hospital stays (p <.0005) when compared with patients without similar elevations. Within the range of moderately elevated troponin concentrations, higher titers were associated with increasing mortality risk, longer hospital and intensive care unit stays, and a higher incidence of myocardial infarction. The use of a beta-blocker and aspirin was associated with better survival for patients with maximum serum troponin concentrations > or =2 microg/L. CONCLUSION: Moderate elevations of serum troponin I, which are below the threshold required to diagnose overt myocardial infarction, may reflect ongoing myocardial injury in the critically ill and are associated with a higher mortality rate and longer hospital and intensive care unit length of stays. The use of beta-blockers and aspirin is associated with better outcomes for this subset of patients. 相似文献

A 66-year-old white male presented with jaundice, pruritus, and a 30-pound weight loss over two months. Physical examination revealed scleral icterus. Laboratory evaluation revealed ALT 161 U/L, AST 290 U/L, alkaline phosphatase 2004 U/L, GGT 2,552 U/L, total bilirubin 10.2 mg/dL, and a carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) level of 4,374 U/mL. Initial endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) was unsuccessful due to ulceration in the duodenum healed with esomeprazole therapy. Subsequent ERCP showed a possible filling defect in the common bile duct treated with sphincterotomy and balloon sweeping of the common bile duct. Symptoms and jaundice resolved five months after initial presentation with normal labs and studies. While elevated CA 19-9 levels occur in most patients with carcinoma of the pancreas, it can also be elevated in patients with extrapancreatic malignancies and acute cholangitis. This case illustrates the fact that a markedly elevated CA 19-9 can be secondary to causes other than carcinoma. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: CD36 deficiency is reportedly an underlying factor about insulin resistance, defective fatty acid metabolism and hypertriglyceridemia in spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR), and may be involved in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance and hyperlipidemia in humans. METHODS: We examined 831 adults undergoing health screening. The majority (780) was Pro90 homozygous for the CD36 gene product, but 51 displayed a CD36 mutation (2 homozygous and 49 heterozygous for Ser90). This is the major mutation site involved in CD36 deficiency in Japanese. RESULTS: Among parameters related to insulin resistance, there were no differences in body mass index (BMI), HDL cholesterol, total cholesterol, triglycerides, insulin and insulin resistance index (HOMA IR), or blood pressure between 91 normal subjects (45 male and 46 female) randomly selected from the 780 Pro90 homozygotes and the 51 (29 male and 22 females) CD36-deficient subjects (Ser90 homozygote and Pro90Ser heterozygote). Free fatty acid concentrations, however, were higher in Ser90 CD36 subjects than in Pro90 control subjects. CONCLUSIONS: The CD36Pro90Ser mutation is not necessarily related to the insulin resistance syndrome, but is associated with high free fatty acid concentrations in Japanese. 相似文献

BackgroundSerum chemokine CXC Ligand 16 (CXCL16) concentration is associated with atherosclerosis and CXCL16 expression may be influenced by the polymorphism, A181V. We established whether serum CXCL16 concentration or the A181V genotype is more strongly associated with atherosclerotic stroke and its associated risk factor, carotid atherosclerosis.MethodsPCR–RFLP was used to genotype 244 atherosclerotic stroke patients (AS group), 153 stroke-free controls (patient controls) and 167 healthy controls. Serum CXCL16 concentration was determined for a subset of patients (n = 135) and all controls. The same subset of patients was then examined using ultrasound to evaluate their carotid atherosclerotic lesions, including intima-media thickness (IMT), plaque stability and carotid plaque area (CPA).ResultsCompared with the patient controls and healthy controls, serum CXCL16 concentration was significantly increased in the AS group (P < 0.05, and 0.01). It was also strongly associated with increased IMT, vulnerable plaque and increased CPA (P < 0.05, < 0.001, and < 0.01). However, the CXCL16 A181V genotype distribution and allele frequencies showed no differences between AS and control groups, nor did it influence serum CXCL16 concentration.ConclusionSerum CXCL16 concentration is significantly associated with atherosclerotic stroke and carotid atherosclerosis, suggesting that this biochemical test may be useful to identify patients at increased risk of atherosclerosis. 相似文献

ObjectivesTo investigate peripheral brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) concentrations in the perioperative period, their relationship with transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1 tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-6 genetics.Design and methodsProspective, observational study. BDNF, TGF-β1, IL-6 and TNF-α were analysed at baseline (T0), 5 h (T1), 24 h (T2) and 5 days (T3) after surgery, in 21 patients. The IL-6 ? 174 G/C polymorphism was genotyped.ResultsSerum BDNF concentrations decreased (P = 0.048), correlated with TGF-β1 (r = 0.610 at T1, r = 0.493 at T2, r = 0.554 at T3). Plasma BDNF concentrations raised (P = 0.049), correlated with IL-6 and TNF-α at T1 (r = 0.495 and r = 0.441, respectively). BDNF response was predictable from TNF-α and IL-6 concentrations and the IL-6 ? 174 G/C genotype.ConclusionSerum and plasma BDNF concentrations could relate to platelet activation and inflammatory response, respectively. IL-6 genetics played a role in the BDNF acute response. 相似文献
