| isopropanol ingestion: case report with pharmacokinetic analysis. | an unusual case of acute isopropanol overdose which occurred within the confines of the emergency department is reported. serial serum concentrations of isopropanol and its metabolite acetone were followed for 43 hours. pharmacokinetic analysis is presented, as well as a brief literature review of diagnosis and management. cns toxicity was related mainly to isopropanol concentrations. the calculated half-life of isopropanol was 7.3 hours. because of the pharmacokinetic profile of isopropanol, ma ... | 2009 | 2712894 |
| carcinoembryonic antigen in management of colorectal carcinoma. | carcinoembryonic antigen (c.e.a.) estimation has been used in the preoperative assessment of colorectal carcinoma patients and has been shown to give a useful guide to the presence of metastatic disease and ultimately to a poor prognosis if the serum concentration is 100 ng/ml or more. c.e.a. has been shown to be a more reliable index of tumour spread than either clinical examination or serum alkaline phosphatase estimation. raised c.e.a. levels of less than 100 ng/ml do not, however, necessaril ... | 2009 | 4421372 |
