While holding a complex neuropsychological testing of 60 patients with disseminated peritonitis, we encountered a problem of a secondary reactive somatopsychosis due to metabolic encephalopathy. It is noteworthy, that the severity of psychoemotional disorders expectedly progressed depending on a degree of endogenous intoxication. Such circumstance must be duly considered in composing and implementing an intensive care scheme for the discussed patients' category.

Acute alcohol intoxication could cause multiorgan damage, including nervous, digestive, and cardiovascular systems, and in particular, irreversible damage to the brain and liver. Emerging studies have revealed that the endogenous multienzymatic antioxidant defense system (MEAODS) plays a central role in preventing oxidative stress and other toxicological compounds produced by alcohol. However, few available drugs could quickly regulate MEAODS.

Article Synopsis
- - Recent research has gathered extensive biological evidence from various fields like biochemistry and neuroimaging to support the idea of a continuum of affective disorders.
- - This continuum includes two dimensions: a clinical one that ranges from major depressive disorder to the bipolar spectrum, and a causal one focusing on the various underlying factors of these mood disorders.
- - The upcoming Special Issue aims to investigate the complex markers that characterize these affective disorders from both clinical and causal viewpoints.
The role of post-mortem investigations in deaths due to fermenting grape gas: A case series of four fatalities.
Forensic Sci Int Synerg
November 2024
Institute of Legal Medicine, Department of Medical and Surgical Sciences, "Magna Graecia" University, 88100, Catanzaro, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- Carbon dioxide (CO) is produced by cellular respiration and can be deadly at high levels, especially in unventilated spaces.
- The paper discusses six cases of CO poisoning due to grape must fermentation in a confined area, resulting in four fatalities and two survivors.
- Investigations included environmental gas measurements, autopsies, and histopathological analyses, revealing toxic CO levels and signs of alcohol in the deceased, leading to recommendations for improved post-mortem CO intoxication diagnosis methods.
