This case study describes a three-year-old girl who developed acute hepatitis and pancytopenia, potentially due to chronic use of Senna, highlighting possible liver and bone marrow toxicity.

This case report details a 43-year-old woman who survived severe multiorgan injury from accidental Colchicum autumnale poisoning, resulting in ongoing muscle weakness and intermittent hair loss three years after the incident.

This case report identifies chronic vitamin A intoxication in a toddler who received excessive vitamin A supplements, resulting in various symptoms and confirmed by liver biopsy findings.

This review discusses medical conditions and therapies related to various elements, such as zinc, copper, mercury, cadmium, lead, chromium, and arsenic, without reporting new experimental results; it highlights past findings on deficiencies, toxicities, and historical cases.

This study reported that despite treatment, patients with severe thallium poisoning experienced lasting visual impairment and partial recovery of polyneuropathy over two years, with hair loss fully reversing.

This study assessed mice's hematology and serum enzymes under sodium arsenite toxicity and observed that Aegle marmelos fruit extract reduced liver and kidney damage, mitigating the toxin's effects by maintaining normal enzyme levels when both were administered together.

This study found that mercury chloride administration in rats led to decreased intraepidermal nerve fibers and increased Langerhans cells, suggesting small nerve fiber damage after mercury poisoning.

In this case report, purpura was associated with lithium treatment at therapeutic levels, highlighting the importance of monitoring for symptoms of intoxication even when lithium concentrations appear normal.

In this case study, researchers reported on a 54-year-old woman who developed methotrexate toxicity after mistakenly taking high doses over five days, which led to mucocutaneous lesions and pancytopenia, highlighting the importance of early recognition and treatment of such toxicities.

In this case report, acute liver failure was attributed to a 34-year-old woman's high-dose zinc supplementation taken for three weeks, illustrating that even commonly used supplements can lead to serious conditions like liver failure.

The woman likely died from acute arsenic poisoning, not chronic exposure.

This case report highlights a rare instance of severe multi-organ involvement following a single dose of methotrexate for ectopic pregnancy, requiring intensive care but ultimately successfully treated with leucovorin and supportive care.

This case study observed a massive lithium overdose in a 38-year-old woman with bipolar disorder, who survived despite extremely high lithium concentrations through continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration.

This study reports two cases of fatal metformin intoxication with hair concentrations significantly higher than those in subjects under treatment, marking the first use of hair analysis for such cases.

This case report highlights the successful use of Prussian Blue to treat a dog suffering from thallium intoxication, demonstrating the importance of early diagnosis and targeted therapy in veterinary care for improving recovery outcomes.

This article reports a rare case of toxic keratitis in a patient due to excessive intake of vitamin A, highlighting hypervitaminosis A risks such as severe eye conditions and systemic health issues, especially with cumulative doses exceeding therapeutic levels.

This case report highlights a patient who developed pancytopenia, transaminase elevation, and alopecia after consuming large amounts of veterinary albendazole purchased online, which he used without medical supervision.

This study found an increase in criminal and accidental thallium (Tl+) poisonings globally, particularly in Ukraine, partly due to online availability, underscoring the need for better control and diagnosis to prevent severe outcomes and potential misuse during ongoing conflicts.

Chemotherapy with docetaxel and cisplatin can cause severe low potassium, requiring careful monitoring and treatment.

In this study, conducted on male Wistar rats, high doses of white turi flower extract significantly increased sodium and potassium kidney levels, causing symptoms like lethargy and hair loss without fatalities, suggesting potential acute toxicity that warrants further research for long-term safety assessment.

This case report describes a 61-year-old woman with Sjögren's syndrome who experienced multiple episodes of aseptic meningitis linked to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim use.

This study found that high doses of ethyl acetate extract from Tridax procumbens can have specific toxic effects in rats, including organ damage and significant changes in some serum biochemical parameters.

In this study, long-term occupational exposure to benzene in fueling workers was associated with increased skin diseases, altered blood cell counts, and elevated liver enzyme levels compared to overseers.

In this study, high doses of Lepidium sativum seeds extract were reported to cause toxicity and tissue damage in animals, suggesting the need for careful use under medical supervision.

In this study, feeding albino mice various doses of Acanthospermum hispidum shoots and seeds caused toxicity and death within 9 to 172 days.
