Toxicology

A comprehensive handbook intended for medical, scientific, or health-care professionals, providing guidance on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of poisoning.

A comprehensive guide providing a step-wise approach to the evaluation and emergency treatment of common complications of poisoning (coma, seizures, shock), the proper use of gastric decontamination and dialysis, and an alphabetical listing of specific drugs and poisons detailing pathophysiology, toxic dose, diagnosis, and treatment. Includes descriptions of antidotes, therapeutic drugs, and an approach to environmental and occupational toxicology.

A comprehensive analysis of the toxicological effects and processes affecting the skin, covering chemical exposure and dermal responses. Part of the Target Organ Toxicology Series.

A comprehensive reference guide providing A-Z entries on various poisons and their corresponding antidotes. Includes information on toxicological emergencies, poisoning treatment, and extensive appendices listing hotlines, poison control centers, organizations, and resources for poison education.

A foundational textbook covering the fundamental principles and mechanisms of toxicology, exploring how various substances cause adverse effects in biological systems.

A collection of case studies focusing on the safety, health effects, and toxicity of nanomaterials and various particles.

A collection of clinical case studies derived from the American College of Medical Toxicology, focusing on various aspects of medical toxicology practice.

A comprehensive reference analyzing drugs and poisons across various matrices (pharmaceuticals, biological fluids, postmortem material). It covers clinical and forensic toxicology, therapeutic drug monitoring, workplace drug testing, postmortem analysis, solid dosage form identification, and analytical methods development and quality control.

A comprehensive guide detailing the approach to the poisoned patient, covering resuscitation, risk assessment, supportive care, investigations, gastrointestinal decontamination, enhanced elimination, antidotes, and specific toxicological considerations such as snakebite, mushroom poisoning, and plant poisoning.

A handbook in the Recall Series providing examination questions and essential information for the diagnosis and therapy of poisoning and general medical toxicology principles.

This review examines the pathophysiological implications of mitochondrial alterations induced by sepsis, which is characterized by a dysregulated systemic inflammatory response leading to organ dysfunction. It discusses how mitochondrial function, accessed in immune cells like monocytes and lymphocytes, can serve as a biomarker for clinical recovery, immunometabolic status, and responsiveness to oxygen and vasopressor therapies in critically ill septic patients.

A comprehensive text on Medical Toxicology focusing on the use of antidotes, illustrated through anecdotes and case examples.
