It is also well known that hepatitis C virus infection is associated with changes in lipid metabolism. This is evident in liver dysfunctions, when liver functions are disturbed simultaneously. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of antiviral therapy on serum lipid level in patients with viral hepatitis C before and at the end of the 48 weeks of treatment compared patients treated with Interferon vs Interferon + Ribavirin and relation with sustained virological response, from North East Romania. We evaluated patients hospitalized in Emergency Hospital for Children St. Mary Iasi between 2009-2017. The result of our study show that the mean age of patients from goup 1 was 11.85�3.65 years, vs 11.5�3.1 years in group 2 (p=0.171). We found changes in cholesterol metabolism in both groups of patients, increases in total cholesterol l...

Spiridon” County Hospital. Retrospective study conducted over a period of 18 months (January 1, 2015- June 30, 2016). This study included all patients who presented to the E.D. after drug (cannabis and ethnobotanicals) consumption. The variables studied for creating the consumer profile were sex, age, social background, method of consumption, clinical and laboratory changes. The study included 153 patients brought to hospital by ambulance (71.89%) for cannabis or ethnobotanical poisoning. Most patients were males (92.15%) from urban areas (75.97%), aged between 18 and 24 years (52.28%). At the time of admission to ED 96.07% of them needed medical care for consumption of ethnobotanicals through various methods and only 3.92% were brought to hospital for cannabis or marijuana use. For 61.70% of patients, curiosity wa...

The study was aimed at analyzing the profile and identifying the frequency, nature, and contributing factors of suicides. This retrospective study included all patients who attempted suicide admitted to the Emergency Department (ED) of ‘St Spiridon’ Hospital Iasi - Romania, during 2015. They were analyzed by sex, age, residence, suicide method, associated pathology, potential risk factors and interventions. The study included 368 patients (53.81% female and 46.19% male). 63.58% were admitted to ED for drug ingestion, 14.13% for ingestion of organophosphorus compounds, rat poison, herbicide and corrosive substances and 22.28% for traumatic suicide attempts. Drug ingestion (42.11%) was preferred by women while self-inflicted cut injuries (14.94%) and corrosive substance ingestion (8.42%) were more common in males. Benzodiazepines ingestion (20.10%) followed by self-inflicted cut injuries ...
