Rhabdomyolysis following acute alcohol intoxication.

The case of a fit young man who developed rhabdomyolysis after a short period of immobilization following acute alcohol intoxication is described. Rhabdomyolysis should be considered in an intoxicated patient presenting with muscle tenderness, particularly after immobilization.

[Blood and liver monoamine oxidases in fatal alcoholic intoxication].

Biochemical studies of monoamine oxygenases (MAO) were studied in albino rats and in subjects dead from ethanol poisoning, alcoholic cardiomyopathy, and coronary heart disease. Experiments demonstrated that chronic alcoholization leads to increase in the levels of both types of MAO (A and B), the longer the alcoholization, the more pronounced the increase. Intake of high ethanol doses in the course of regular alcohol abuse involves a drop in MAO activity (by 1.9-2-2 times). Study of MAO helps detect chronic alcoholization and differentiate it from coronary heart disease and alcoholic cardiomyopathy and thus make an objective conclusion about the cause of death and thanatogenesis.

[Structure in air-blood barrier in experimental pneumonia and chronic alcohol intoxication].

Ultrastructural changes were studied in components of the blood-air barrier in pneumonia in the presence of chronic alcoholic intoxication under exposure to a substitution surfactant therapy. The data obtained suggest to us that use of a replacement surfactant therapy promotes reduction of edematous events and dystrophic-and-destructive changes in cells of the parenchyma of the lungs increasing the functional activity of alveolar macrophages and type II alveolocytes.

[The properties of the brain dopamine and GABA receptors in rats with chronic alcoholic intoxication with different ethanol withdrawal times].

Marked changes in dopamine and GABA receptors in the brain of rats with chronic alcohol intoxication were registered 48 h and 3 months after ethanol withdrawal. The changes in dopamine receptors characterized by the increased number of the sites of binding with ligand (Bmax) were most pronounced 48 h after ethanol withdrawal. In 3 months the properties of these receptors tended toward recovery. The changes in GABA receptors also manifested by the increase in Bmax become further pronounced 3 months after ethanol withdrawal.

[Blood methanol as a marker of alcoholism. A diagnostic component within the scope of expert assessment of driving competence in alcoholic intoxication].

A blood methanol test which was done in addition to routine diagnosis of the blood methanol level of persons with alcohol driving delicts in the past who were alcoholized during the medical-psychological investigation (MPU) produced differently significant cues for (pre) alcoholism in nearly all persons. As a result 15 out of 40 persons reached a blood methanol level of 10 mg% and more (24 more persons a level between 1.5 and 9.9 mg%). This is a clear indicator of pathological alcohol drinking. Persons with a breath alcohol concentration from 0.2 to 0.99/1000 showed an average blood ethanol concentration of less than 10 mg%, but above 1.5 mg%, where as those persons with an alcohol level above this limit had a blood methanol concentration significantly above 10 mg%. The arithmetical mean and the standard deviation were significantly elevated compared to the range of reference, an effect that didn't show as clearly with the median of the Gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT). The mean corpuscular volume of erythrocytes (MCV) reacted less sensitively. The correlation between the five parametres (blood ethanol at the last alcohol driving delict, breath alcohol concentration, GGT, MCV, blood methanol) were all significantly positive with one exception: the correlation between the breath alcohol and the blood methanol level. Altogether the results support the hypotheses that the protective assertions of the subjects concerned are hard to believe, even those of persons with a lower blood alcohol level. An additional test of the blood methanol level should be done, however, with persons reaching an alcoholization between 0.2 and 1.0/1000 during the MPU.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
