Toxins in Medical Toxicology

Dear Colleagues,

The care of poisoned patients is always a challenge considering the lack of proper randomized controlled trials and guideline recommendations. Considering the variety of exposures, a continuous update regarding pathogenic mechanisms and therapeutic measurements is mandatory. We expect papers focused on natural toxins, such as heavy metals, plant toxins, mushrooms, venoms, as well as analgesics, anticoagulants, cardiovascular drugs, carbon monoxide, cyanide, methemoglobinemia, cholinergic agents, psychoactive medications, sedative-hypnotics, alcohols, and withdrawal states.

This Topic aims to offer the possibility to present and discuss novel issues in the field of medical toxicology including papers with both stable and critically ill patients. We hope that new published papers will lead to a better understanding of the pathogenesis of different types of intoxication and secondary organ damage. We look forward to receiving papers dedicated to new therapeutic and intensive care management approaches for these patients.
