Poisoning by Datura leaves used as edible wild vegetables.

The causes of Datura intoxication include medication overdose, misuse of edible vegetables, deliberate abuse as a hallucinogen, homicidal or robbery and accidental intoxication from contaminated food. We report an incident of 14 people with Datura intoxication caused by ingesting wild Datura suaveolans for food. The incubation period was 15 to 30 min. The symptoms/signs were dizziness, dry mouth, flushed skin, palpitation, nausea, drowsiness, tachycardia, blurred vision, mydriasis, hyperthermia, disorientation, vomiting, agitation, delirium, urine retention, hypertension and coma. Three patients were hospitalized for 2-3 days. Thirteen persons received supportive fluid therapy. One patient did not receive medical therapy, he induced vomiting and drank a lot of water. Four patients presented with delirium/coma and 3 received physostigmine therapy with good response. One patient was intubated because of coma and respiratory depression. Three persons needed Foley catheterization for urine retention or coma status. One patient had a complication of urinary tract infection and antibiotic management. All patients recovered with no sequelae.     

Renal vein thrombosis and selective arterial or venous thrombolytic therapy

Summary Background: Renal vein thrombosis (RVT) complicating the nephrotic syndrome is associated with a poor prognosis. Methods/Results: RVT was diagnosed in 12 of 60 patients with a diagnosis of nephrotic syndrome suggested by computed tomography (CT) and subsequently confirmed by selective renal angiography. Fifty patients carried a diagnosis of primary glomerulonephritis with various pathological findings, and 10 patients had lupus nephritis. Renal vein and peripheral vein blood samples were collected in the 12 patients with RVT and were assayed for fibrin(ogen) degradation products (FDP), antithrombin III (AT III), VIIIR:AG, and fibrinogen. The results suggested a state of hypercoagulation. Of these 12 patients, 7 were given 200,000 units of urokinase (UK) over 60 minutes in divided doses selectively via the renal vein. Five patients were given 200,000 units UK selectively into the renal artery. All patients also received 2.5 mg/day warfarin and 75 mg/day persantine. Except for three patients with focal glomerulosclerosis, all patients received 40 mg/day prednisone. After 1 month, the CT scan and blood samples for FDP, AT III, VIIIR:AG, and fibrinogen were repeated. Patients receiving intra-arterial UK had complete resolution of their thrombi. Complete resolution was also suggested in 2 of the 7 patients receiving UK by renal vein, and there was partial resolution in the other five. The hypercoagulation state decreased in all patients. Conclusions: We conclude that RVT is not an uncommon event in patients with nephrotic syndrome. The diagnosis can be supported reliably using abdominal CT scanning. Although a small number of patients were included in this nonrandomized study, it appeared that intra-arterial thrombolytic therapy yielded better results. The patients with minimal change disease have a good prognosis.     

.MYCOLOGIC IDENTIFICATION OF EMERICELLA NIDULANS AND ASPERGILLUS FLAVUS CAUSED PULMONARY INFECTION

A rare case of pulmonary infection caused by Emericella nidulans and Aspergillus flavus is reported for the first time in our country. "This diagnosis is of significance mycologically. :Direct microscopic examination and histopatho- logic cross section of expectorated mass show numerolus cleistoithecia of varying size, filled by asci and ascospores. Outside the cleistothecia 'were numerous thickwalled Hulle cells. The pa- tient was treated satisfactorily with antimyco- tics.
