![]() ![]() Quality of the evidence: this review of interventions for paracetamol poisoning found surprisingly few published randomised clinical trials for this very common condition. These trials have shown that by using a slower infusion and lower initial dose of acetylcysteine, the proportion of side effects such as nausea (feeling sick) and vomiting, and allergy (the body's bad reaction to the medicine such as a rash) may be lowered. More recent clinical trials have looked at ways to decrease side effects of intravenous (into a vein) acetylcysteine treatment, by altering the way it is given. Acetylcysteine should be given to people with paracetamol poisoning at risk of liver damage, risk is determined by the dose ingested, time of ingestion, and investigations. Furthermore, it has fewer side effects than some other antidotes such as dimercaprol and cysteamine its superiority to methionine was unclear. Of the treatments that remove the toxic products of paracetamol, acetylcysteine seems to reduce the rate of liver injury from paracetamol poisoning. People may not be able to take charcoal if they are drowsy and some may dislike its taste or texture (or both). Activated charcoal seems to be the best choice if the person is able to take it. Key results: activated charcoal, gastric lavage, and ipecacuanha may reduce absorption of paracetamol if started within one to two hours of paracetamol ingestion, but the clinical benefit was unclear. Most of these trials looked at different treatments. We found 11 randomised clinical trials with 700 participants. Finally, attempts can be made to remove paracetamol and its toxic products from the bloodstream using special blood cleansing equipment. Other interventions to treat paracetamol poisoning include medicines (antidotes) that may decrease the amount of the toxic products (such as a medicine called cimetidine) or breakdown the toxic products (including medicines called methionine, cysteamine, dimercaprol, or acetylcysteine). As a consequence, the toxic product can damage the liver leading to liver failure, kidney failure, and in some cases death. However, a small amount of the medicine is converted into a toxic product that the liver can normally handle but, when large amounts of paracetamol are taken, the liver is overwhelmed. Paracetamol once absorbed into the bloodstream goes to the liver where the majority is broken down to harmless products. The agents include activated charcoal (that binds paracetamol together in the stomach), gastric lavage (stomach washout to remove as much paracetamol as possible), or ipecacuanha (a syrup that is swallowed and causes vomiting (being sick)). These interventions include decreasing the absorption of the paracetamol ingested and hence decreasing the amount absorbed into the bloodstream. ![]() There are many different interventions that can be used to try to treat people with paracetamol poisoning. Study characteristics: randomised clinical trials (studies where people are randomly put into one of two or more treatment groups) where participants had come to medical attention because they had taken a paracetamol overdose, intentionally or by accident, regardless of the amount of paracetamol taken or the age, sex, or other medical conditions of the person involved. Search date: the evidence is current to January 2017. Intentional or accidental poisoning with paracetamol is a common cause of liver injury. ![]() Mainly, we tried to assess what effects the interventions had on the number of deaths and the need for a liver transplant.īackground: paracetamol is one of the most common drugs taken in overdose. Review question: in this review, we looked at the evidence for the interventions (treatments) used to treat people with paracetamol (acetaminophen) poisoning. ![]()

![]() ![]() Biblical illiteracy can lead believers to believe everything in the Bible applies to us, missing the larger picture. ![]() If we don’t know the grand narrative of Scripture that points to Jesus, it can be difficult to apply texts to our lives in a healthy. As the survey data above shows, Christians need to grow our literacy and fluency with the Bible. ![]() If Christians can’t answer these questions, it will affect our witness to those around us. Many atheists have read the Bible more than people who grew up Christian because they seek to find issues with the Word of God. The numbers have continued to decline since then-the American Bible Society found that 26 million people stopped reading the Bible between 20. In 2014, the Pew Research Center performed studies which found that 63 percent of evangelical Christians read the Bible “at least once a week” and that 18 percent “seldom or never” read it. Sadly and couldn’t discuss more than the basic, big stories. Most American Christians have never read through the entire Bible. How Biblically Literate Are Most Christians in America? These are the biographical portions (the Gospels), the historical (Acts), the apocalypse (Revelation), and the epistles or letters (everything else). The New Testament also has four distinct genres. The “K” refers to Ketuvim, or writings, which include the Psalms, Job, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Chronicles. The N refers to Neviim, or prophets-which includes everything between Joshua and Kings, the major prophets, and the book of the twelve (What we know as the minor prophets). The T refers to the Torah-the law, the Bible’s first five books. Together these three are known as the TNK. Reading Proverbs in the same way we read Isaiah can cause us to become frustrated or confused.Īncient Rabbis divided the Old Testament into three different parts. It might look like knowing a few scattered stories that would be learned in Sunday School.īiblical illiteracy also looks like not understanding the different genres in Scripture. It consists of understanding the different genres of Scripture What Does It Mean to Be Biblically Illiterate?īiblical illiteracy means not being familiar with the Bible in a way that is helpful and meaningful for everyday life. Biblical literacy is being able to understand how each book of the Bible applies to our lives and how each book can speak to us. The Bible is a collection of books written over a 2500-year period, and it has a unified story that points to Jesus. ![]() ![]() ![]() You will continue to be charged monthly for your account until you cancel your account through My Verizon or delete your account through the Verizon Cloud app. Note: Deleting the Verizon Cloud app from your phone does not cancel your subscription.
