Opis:
Introduction. Thiram, a fungicides, is widely used on seeds and as foliar agent on turf, vegetables and fruit. It is also used in the rubber industry as a vulcanization accelerator. When absorbed through the respiratory system, it is rapidly metabolised to dimethylthiocarbamate and carbon disulphide, causing noxious effects. A brief review is presented of the literature, centering on the interesting case of a 45-year-old woman admitted to the hospital suffering from acute respiratory failure. Results. Computer tomography in angiographic option (angio-CT) showed an extensive, irregular area of ground glass in both upper lobes and apical segments of the lower lobes of the lungs. A significant enlargement of both atria was also described. There was no improvement after cardiac treatment and patient was transferred to the pulmonary department where she was succesfully treated with systemic glucocortycosteroids. The patient remains under the supervision of the pulmonary out-patient department.

Opis:
Aim of the study: To emphasise the importance of a thorough history to exclude foreign body inhalation in children presenting with respiratory symptoms. Case study: We report a case of a 2-year-old boy with underlying bronchial asthma, who presented with cough and difficulty breathing of two-day duration, with no stridor. He was treated for acute exacerbation of bronchial asthma and bronchopneumonia. However, the symptoms persisted despite treatment. A detailed history revealed a choking episode while eating chicken curry prior admission. Bronchoscopy confirmed the presence of a piece of chicken bone in the left main bronchus, which was removed. The child was in good overall condition after the operation. Chest radiograph showed resolved lung collapse. Conclusion: A thorough history to exclude foreign body ingestion is necessary to avoid delayed complications of foreign body aspiration.
Cel badania: Podkreślenie znaczenia wywiadu chorobowego dla wykluczenia aspiracji ciała obcego u dzieci z objawami ze strony układu oddechowego. Opis przypadku: W pracy przedstawiono przypadek 2-letniego chłopca z astmą oskrzelową, u którego od dwóch dni utrzymywały się kaszel i trudności w oddychaniu bez obecności świstu krtaniowego. Pacjenta poddano leczeniu z powodu ostrego zaostrzenia astmy oskrzelowej i odoskrzelowego zapalenia płuc, jednak nie dało ono oczekiwanych rezultatów. Szczegółowy wywiad chorobowy ujawnił epizod zakrztuszenia potrawą curry z kurczaka przed przyjęciem do szpitala. Bronchoskopia potwierdziła obecność kości kurczaka w lewym głównym oskrzelu, którą następnie usunięto. Stan dziecka po zabiegu oceniono jako dobry. W badaniu radiologicznym klatki piersiowej stwierdzono ustąpienie objawów zapaści płuca. Wniosek: Dokładny wywiad w celu wykluczenia obecności ciała obcego jest niezbędny, aby uniknąć powikłań.

Objectives The aim of the study has been to explore hemimellitene distribution in blood, liver, lung and kidney as well as toxicokinetics of its elimination from blood of rats after single and repeated inhalation exposure to this compound. Tissue distribution and excretion with urine of 2-dimethylbenzoic acids (2,3-DMBA and 2,6-DMBA) were also evaluated. Material and Methods Male outbred IMP:WIST rats were used in the experiment. The animals were exposed to hemimellitene vapors at the nominal concentration of 25 ppm, 100 ppm, and 250 ppm in the dynamic inhalation chambers for 6 h for single exposure purpose and for 4 weeks (6 h/day for 5 day/week) for repeated exposure purposes. Results Significantly lower concentrations of hemimellitene were detected in the blood and tissues of animals after repeated inhalation exposure of animals to hemimellitene vapors, which points to reduced retention of the chemical in the lungs of the experimental rats. The trend of hemimellitene elimination from the blood depended solely on exposure intensity, irrespective of exposure time, both after single and repeated exposure. As regards the 2 determined hemimellitene metabolites, the major trend of the metabolic transformation involved formation of 2,3-DMBA. Conclusions The significantly higher urinary 2,3-DMBA concentration after repeated exposure shows that hemimellitene induces enzymatic processes in the rat.

Opis:
Objectives: This paper presents toxic effects of 2-MN in laboratory animals under conditions of 4-week inhalation exposure to 2-methylnaphthalene (2-MN) vapors. Materials and Methods: Male Wistar rats were exposed to 2-MN vapors at a nominal concentration of 0, 2, 10 or 50 mg/m³ in dynamic inhalation chambers for 4 weeks (6 h/day, 5 days/week). After 4 weeks of inhalation exposure the animals were necropsied. Blood samples were collected and selected organs were weighted and prepared for histological examinations. Results: The effects of the increased levels of exposure to 2-MN experienced by the experimental rats were as follows: a) increasing γ-glutamylotransferase activity, b) stimulation of the hematopoietic system, c) lower cholesterol concentrations, d) higher number of goblet cells in lobar bronchi, e) hyperplasia of hepatic bile ducts. Conclusion: Four-week exposure of the animals to 2-MN at 2 mg/m³ proved to be the no-observed-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL), while 10 mg/m³ appeared to represent the lowest-observed-adverseeffect- level (LOAEL).

Opis:
Objectives 1-Methylnaphthalene (1-MN) is a constituent of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, the chemicals that have become ubiquitous in the environment as result of natural and industrial process. This paper reports a study on the distribution and excretion of 1-MN in rats after single and repeated inhalation exposure to 1-MN vapor. Material and Methods Male Wistar rats were exposed to 1-MN vapor at nominal concentrations of 50 mg/m³ or 200 mg/m³ in the dynamic inhalation chambers (TSE Systems Head Nose Only Exposure) for 6 h (single exposure) or 5 days (6 h/day, repeated exposure). Blood, urine and tissue samples were collected during and after the exposure. Blood, urine and tissue concentrations of 1-MN were estimated by gas chromatography using the headspace technique. Results The elimination of 1-MN from blood followed an open 2-compartment model. The concentration in rat tissues was dependent on the magnitude and time of exposure. After repeated exposure, the concentration 1-MN in tissue decreased in comparison to single exposure. The elimination of 1-MN with urine after single and repeated exposure to 1-MN occurred mainly in the samples collected during the first day of collection. Conclusions 1-Methylnaphthalene was rapidly eliminated from the blood and tissues of animals exposed by inhalation to 1-MN. In repeated exposure, there was probably a significant increase of 1-MN metabolism in rats exposed to low and high 1-MN doses. Under conditions of repeated 1-MN exposure, no significant systemic 1-MN accumulation could be observed. Int J Occup Med Environ Health 2018;31(6):763–770

The aim of the paper is to summarize the evidence of health impacts of occupational exposure to wildland fires. The authors searched 3 databases for relevant articles and screened the results. After full-text review, articles were included based on pre-determined criteria. The authors identified 32 relevant articles. Occupational exposure to wildland fires affects lung function in the short term and may increase the risk of hypertension in the long term. Exposure to wildland fires is also associated with post-traumatic stress symptoms. There was insufficient evidence to comment on most longer-term risks, and in particular on respiratory disease or cancer risks. Further research is required to understand whether occupational exposure to wildland fires results in clinically significant impacts on respiratory function, and to further clarify the relationship between occupational exposure and blood pressure, mental health, and cancer outcomes.

Opis:
Background: Benzalkonium chloride (BAC) is a quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) toxic to microorganisms. Inhalation is one of the major possible routes of human exposure to BAC. Materials and Methods: Experiments were performed on female Wistar rats. The rats were exposed to aerosol of BAC water solution at the target concentration of 0 (control group) and 35 mg/m³ for 5 days (6 h/day) and, after a 2-week interval, the animals were challenged (day 21) with BAC aerosol at the target concentration of 0 (control group) and 35 mg/m³ for 6 h. Results: Compared to the controls, the animals exposed to BAC aerosol were characterized by lower food intake and their body weight was significantly smaller. As regards BAC-exposed group, a significant increase was noted in relative lung mass, total protein concentration, and MIP-2 in BALF both directly after the termination of the exposure and 18 h afterwards. Significantly higher IL-6 and IgE concentrations in BALF and a decrease in the CC16 concentration in BALF were found in the exposed group immediately after the exposure. The leukocyte count in BALF was significantly higher in the animals exposed to BAC aerosol compared to the controls. In the lungs of rats exposed to BAC the following effects were observed: minimal perivascular, interstitial edema, focal aggregates of alveolar macrophages, interstitial mononuclear cell infiltrations, thickened alveolar septa and marginal lipoproteinosis. Conclusion: Inhalation of BAC induced a strong inflammatory response and a damage to the blood-air barrier. Reduced concentrations of CC16, which is an immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory protein, in combination with increased IgE concentrations in BALF may be indicative of the immuno-inflammatory response in the animals exposed to BAC aerosol by inhalation. Histopathological examinations of tissue samples from the BAC-exposed rats revealed a number of pathological changes found only in the lungs.

Aerosols of a physiological salt solution and aqueous solutions of salbutamol, sodium cromoglicate, and dornase aifa were generated in a pneumatic nebulizer and analyzed in a system with controlled humidity of air as a carrier gas. Mass distribution of aerosol particles and yield of generation for pulse nebulization were measured. Pulsation of generation was realized with an attachment maintained by a computer program. Opening times of the valve were in the range 50-800 ms. The results indicate the possibility of improving aerosol particle delivery to the lung using a pulse generation system.

Opis:
Inhaled mineral nanoparticles which are deposited on the lung surface may influence the gas/liquid barrier and the pulmonary surfactant (PS) which constitutes the vital element of the respiratory system. This research is focused on the physicochemical effects caused by selected clay nanoparticles (bentonite, halloysite, montmorillonites) interacting with PS and changing its original surface activity. Using three measuring methods (pulsating bubble technique, Langmuir balance and drop shape analysis), we demonstrated the influence of different mineral nanoparticles on the dynamic surface tension of animal-derived PS material (Survanta®) and main surfactant phospholipid (DPPC). The results which are dependent on material properties and concentration allow to hypothesize possible pathways of health effects from inhalation of mineral nanoparticles. This may help to set the guidelines in defining occupational safety standards and methods of protection of the respiratory system against inhaled mineral dusts.

Opis:
Ethylene phosphorodifluoridite (C2H4F4O2P2) (CAS No. 3965-00-2) is a colorless corrosive fuming liquid that is used as a stabilizer in the electrolyte of rechargeable batteries. There are no previous reports of toxic effects following exposure to this compound. A 28-year-old male complained of respiratory distress after accidental inhalation of ethylene phosphorodifluoridite for 30 min. The patient developed acute lung injury with noncardiogenic pulmonary edema and was treated with supportive management. The patient fully recovered and was discharged after 7 days without any significant sequelae. The patient’s symptoms were attributed to non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema caused by ethylene phosphorodifluoridite exposure. The case study showed that ethylene phosphorodifluoridite should be added to the list of chemicals that can cause acute lung injury.

One control group of animals spent all the time during the experiment in an individually ventilated plastic cage. The serum CORT concentrations were determined in all 4 groups of the rats. The blood samples drawn from the tail vein were collected every day after termination of the 6-h exposure. On the fifth day, blood samples were collected 15 min, 30 min, 45 min, 1 h, and 3 h after termination of the 6-h exposure.ResultsOn the fifth day of the study, no statistically significant changes in body weights between all groups of animals were found. After 5 days of the observation, increased food intake in the control groups was noted. Significantly higher CORT concentrations in the rats exposed to 1-MN at 200 mg/m3 and in the animals from the control restrainer were found, comparing to the animals exposed to 1-MN at 50 mg/m3 and the animals from the control cage.ConclusionsThe application of 6-h restraining induced high concentrations of the stress hormone, CORT, in the blood of rats. The short-term exposure of rats to 1-MN non-linearly reduced the restraint stress measured with CORT concentration.

Opis:
Osoby po laryngektomii, mając rurkę tracheostomijną, zobowiązane są dbać o swoją stomę szyjną. Odpowiednia pielęgnacja udrażnia drogę oddechową; ułatwia odkrztuszanie; nawilża; a tym samym wpływa na charakter głosu, jego zabarwienie oraz ułatwia uczenie się mowy zastępczej. Jednym ze sposobów wspierania tej pielęgnacji jest wykonywanie inhalacji. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie podejścia osób po laryngektomii do stosowania inhalacji. W badaniu wzięło udział 28 osób. Zastosowano podejście ilościowe, wykorzystano autorską ankietę. Badania przeprowadzono w czerwcu i lipcu 2021 roku. Z badań wynika, że 68% laryngektomowanych stosuje inhalację, jednakże z różną częstotliwością (od kilku razy dziennie po tylko jeden raz w tygodniu). Wielu z nich o metodzie inhalacji uczy się od innych osób laryngektomowanych, a rzadziej od personelu medycznego. Badani dostrzegają pozytywne efekty płynące ze stosowania wziewania.
Laryngectomy patients are required to take care of their cervical stoma with a tracheostomy tube. Proper care clears the respiratory tract; facilitates expectoration; moisturizes; thus affects the character of the voice, its color and facilitates learning replacement speech. One way to support this care is by inhalation. The aim of the article is to present the approach of people after laryngectomy to the use of inhalation. 28 people participated in the study. A quantitative approach and original questionnaire was used. The research was conducted in June and July 2021. The research shows that 68% of laryngectomees use inhalation, however with different frequency (from several times a day to only once a week). Many of them learn about the inhalation method from other laryngectomees, and less often from medical personnel. The respondents see the positive effects of inhaling.

Opis:
Objectives 1-Methylnaphthalene (1-MN) is composed of 2 benzene rings and belongs to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The metabolism of 1-MN in laboratory animals and bacteria leads to the formation of 1-naphthoic acid (1-NA). Material and Methods In this study the distribution of 1-NA in lung, liver, spleen, kidney and urinary excretion of 1-NA in rats after single and repeated inhalation exposure to 1-MN vapors were investigated. The activity of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and cytochrome were measured of the rats. Genotoxic effects were evaluated with the in vitro micronucleus test on V79 hamster fibroblasts. Results The concentrations of 1-NA in the tissues of rats after single and repeated exposure to 1-MN were dependent on the exposure dose. High levels of 1-NA were found in kidneys of animals after the single and repeated exposure to 1-MN. With an increase of 1-MN dose, an increase in the activity of cytochrome P450 (CYP1A1 and CYP1A2) was observed in the liver of rats. Compared to control animals, significantly higher ALT activity was noted in serum of rats exposed to 1-MN. The micronuclei frequency in V79 cells exposed to 1-MN (in the range of analyzable concentrations; i.e., 5–25 μg/ml) did not differ significantly from the vehicle control, whereas urine extracts from rats exposed to 1-MN induced a significant increase in the frequency of micronuclei compared to urine extracts from the group of control animals. Conclusions Metabolism of 1-MN in rats after the inhalation exposure leading to 1-NA was mainly observed during the first day after the end of exposure. It is likely that 1-MN metabolites present in rat urine can induce the increased micronuclei frequency as was shown in V79 cells.

Opis:
Objective: The aim of this work is to describe the operation principle of the TRA ECETOC model developed using the descriptor system, and the utilization of that model for assessment of inhalation exposures to different organic solvents for selected process categories identifying a given application. Method: Measurement results were available for toluene, ethyl acetate and acetone in workplace atmosphere in Poland. The following process categories have been postulated: (1) Paints and lacquers factory: use in closed, continuous process with occasional controlled exposure; (2) Shoe factory: roller or brush application of glues; (3) Refinery: use in closed process, no likelihood of exposure. The next step was to calculate the workplace concentration at chosen process categories by applying the TRA ECETOC model. Results: The selected categories do not precisely describe the studied applications. Very high concentration values of acetone were measured in the shoe factory, mean 443 ppm. The concentration obtained with the aid of the model is underestimated, ranging from 25.47 to 254.7 ppm, for the case with and without activation of the local exhaust ventilation (LEV), respectively. Estimated concentration at a level corresponding to that of the measured concentration would be possible if the process category involving spraying, e.g., PROC 7 was considered. For toluene and ethyl acetate, the measured concentrations are within the predicted ranges determined with the use of the model when we assume the concentration predicted with active ventilation for the beginning, and the concentration predicted with inactive ventilation for the end of the range. Conclusions: Model TRA ECETOC can be easily used to assess inhalation exposure at workplace. It has numerous advantages, its structure is clear, requires few data, is available free of charge.

Opis:
Badano dynamiczne napięcie powierzchniowe w układach ciekłych zawierających składniki surfaktantu płucnego (SP) oraz nanometryczne cząstki węgla modelujące stałe produkty spalania w silnikach Diesla. Wykazano, że dynamika adsorpcji SP oraz zdolność do obniżania napięcia powierzchniowego została zaburzona w obecności nanocząstek, co może mieć związek z mechanizmem toksyczności inhalowanych spalin silnika Diesla.
Dynamic surface tension was measured in liquid systems containing lung surfactant (LS) compounds and nano-sized carbon particles used as a model of diesel exhaust particles (DEP). It was shown that both adsorption dynamics of LS components and their ability of surface tension reduction were disturbed in the presence of DEP. The results were discussed in relation to mechanisms of lung toxicity caused by inhalation of diesel exhaust.
