Bromadiolone is still often used in life as a poisonous rodent agent. Bromadiolone poisoning is often manifested as coagulation dysfunction, resulting in organ bleeding, including cerebral hemorrhage, intestinal bleeding, abdominal hemorrhage, etc. At present, no case of intestinal necrosis caused by bromadiolone poisoning have been reported. This article reviewed one case of intestinal necrosis and severe coagulation dysfunction, and finally confirmed bromadiolone poisoning by poison detection. The patient recovered and was discharged after surgery, vitamin K injection, plasma transfusion and other treatment methods.

Article Synopsis
  • Bromadiolone is a long-acting anticoagulant rodenticide that can lead to serious coagulation issues, but cases of acute kidney injury (AKI) due to its poisoning haven't been reported until now.
  • A 27-year-old woman developed severe coagulopathy and AKI after bromadiolone exposure, indicating a vitamin K deficiency; her kidney function worsened but later fully recovered with treatment.
  • This case highlights that bromadiolone can cause AKI through severe coagulation dysfunction, which can be treated effectively with high doses of vitamin K and plasma transfusion.

Article Synopsis
  • * A study analyzed 17 Bonelli's eagle carcasses in Eastern Spain, finding that all had been exposed to at least 5 of the 10 ARs tested, with second generation ARs being the most common.
  • * The significant presence of ARs in these eagles, along with liver concentrations suggesting potential poisoning, raises concerns about their impact on the eagle population and associated risks to public health due to the diet of these birds.

Article Synopsis
  • Coumarin-type anticoagulant rodenticides (ARs) are widely used to control rodents, but they pose significant threats to predatory animals through both lethal and sublethal effects.
  • A study conducted in Hungary from 2005 to 2021 found AR residues in 53% of steppe polecats and 39% of European polecats, with higher concentrations in steppe polecats and a diverse array of compounds in European polecats.
  • Findings indicate that AR accumulation correlates with human population density and negatively with natural habitats, highlighting a pressing issue of secondary poisoning in food webs and the need for improved pesticide management for wildlife safety.

The extensive use of rodenticides poses a severe threat to non-target species, particularly birds of prey and scavengers. In this study, a GC-MS/MS-based method was used to unlock the cause of bird deaths in Poland. Organs (liver, heart, kidney, and lungs) collected during autopsies of two rooks () and one carrion crow (), as well as fecal samples, were analyzed for the presence of anticoagulant coumarin derivatives, i.
