      Carbon monoxide poisoning
      TLDR
      Carbon monoxide poisoning results in various systemic symptoms; however, neurologic symptoms tend to predominate and diagnosis is made by measuring arterial or venous carboxyhemoglobin concentrations, however, illness severity does not always correlate with illness severity.
      Demographic and clinical characteristics of carbon monoxide poisoning: nationwide data between 1999 and 2012 in Taiwan
      TLDR
      Some important findings, including higher percentages of mental disorders in female patients and suicide attempt in male patients, seasonal changes, and trends in mortality and morbidity (suicide) rates, may help developing strategies for prevention and treatment of COP.
      Carbon monoxide poisoning: an ancient and frequent cause of accidental death.
      TLDR
      The pathophysiology and epidemiology of carbon monoxide poisoning is described, both an ancient and current cause of inadvertent (accidental) death and more recently as a cause of suicide worldwide.

      Hyperbaric Oxygen for Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
      TLDR
      Assessment of the effectiveness of HBO compared with normobaric oxygen for the prevention of neurological sequelae in patients with acute CO poisoning found empiric evidence of multiple biases that operated to inflate the benefit of HBO in two positive trials.

      TLDR
      Severe neurological manifestations may occur days or weeks after acute CO poisoning, and delayed sequelae of CO poisoning are not rare, usually occur in middle or older, and are clinically characterized by symptom triad of mental deterioration, urinary incontinence, and gait disturbance.
      Hyperbaric or normobaric oxygen for acute carbon monoxide poisoning: a randomised controlled clinical trial
      TLDR
      Assessment of neurological sequelae in patients with all grades of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning after treatment with hyperbaric oxygen and normobaric oxygen to find out if there is a relationship between treatment and disease progression.
      Morbidity from Acute Carbon Monoxide Poisoning at Three-year Follow-up
      TLDR
      The importance of prompt and efficient treatment of carbon monoxide poisoning and the need to follow-up all cases in the anticipation of a relapsing course or the development of sequelae are emphasized.
