Guest guest Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Pubmed doesn't publish, this is an abstract. It is not reasonable or responsible to rely on abstracts to convey information - either get the paper and read the whole thing, or ignore it. Note that they didn't say how they treated him with DMPS. E. g. was it by injection, which we know is dangerous, harmful and inappropriate? Also note that the problems did resolve at 4 months. Most importantly, note that you are asking me to do a lot of homework for you that you should do yourself - get the article and find out what it actually says. Abstracts are seldom particularly accurate.

We report a 4-year-old girl with chronic intoxication of inorganic mercury secondary to the accidental use of an Hg(2)Cl(2)- and HgCl(2)-containing skin whitening cream (urine level of Hg, 41.1 & #956;g/l; reference level, <25 & #956;g/l). Under treatment with dimercapto-1-propansulficacid, Hg level in the urine raised to 1,175.5 & #956;g/l, neurological deterioration occurred, and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed on fluid attenuated inversion recovery sequences new hyperintense lesions in the subcortical white matter. After 4 months, clinical signs and symptoms and brain MRI findings resolved. This is a first case of inorganic mercury poisoning showing hyperintense lesions in brain MRI and confirms earlier cases showing transient deterioration during chelation therapy. Although urinary excretion could be enhanced during chelation therapy, signs and symptoms of intoxication could be worsened. > > PMID: 21052738 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 I guess I could say something really inflammatory, like " this is as stupid as a doctor... " but really doctors aren't stupid and neither are the people on the list. However, while I still very strongly discourage people from playing gin rummy with pubmed abstracts, I was just reading an alleged medical review paper - published in a very good journal - that said " as reported in abstracts from scientific literature. " Medicine really is collapsing as a field involving intellectual activity. Don't get dragged down with it. Abstracts are a tool to decide if a paper is worth reading, nothing more. They are seldom a very accurate guide to content. If you could figure out what you needed to know on pubmed, all your kids would already be well because MD's (and ND's nowadays) search it incessantly. Pubmed is mostly filled with the 'received wisdom' of what government research funding agencies like the CDC, FDA and NIH want us to think. If it had real information in it the vaccine holocaust never would have happened, much less be almost two decades old by now!

Guest guest Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 sorry if you misinterpreted my email regarding this paper. I have tried to find it in whole.The doctors and there has been many havent been able to help my son. We have been at this 8 years. He is almost 10 btw...he is regressing now and has a load of medical issues.One being the white lesions on the brain which can be anything.I suspect Lyme.just wanted to really know if anyone has dealt with this before with their child.Any input would be appreciated.We have done 38 rounds of AC protocol and we had to stop for other reasons for the time being.Hoping to pick up soon. > > > > > > My son's MRI showed up with white lesions.He has major regression.Is this article suggesting that chelation was respinsible or resolved the issue????jakob's mom thank u for ur help! > > > > > > > > > Hyperintense lesions in brain MRI after exposure to a mercuric chloride-containing skin whitening cream. > > > Benz MR, Lee SH, Kellner L, Döhlemann C, Berweck S. > > > > > > Dr. von Haunersches Kinderspital, University Children's Hospital, Ludwigs-Maximilians-University, Munich, Lindwurmstrasse 4, 80337, Munich, Germany, Marcus.Benz@ > > > > > > Abstract > > > Exposure to inorganic mercury (Hg) is a serious problem presenting with a combination of neurological and psychiatric symptoms along with weight loss, pruritus, erythema, arterial hypertension, tachycardia, and renal tubular dysfunction.

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 Maybe this will help. There are many mercury poisoned adults with white lesions that show up on MRIs. These white lesions show up before the person ever suspects mercury toxicity. With proper amalgam removal and Andy Cutler style chelation MRI findings usually resolve eventually. I know this is true because I have heard reports from chelating adults and professionals who track their progress. It is also the trend from my own MRIs. Adults also report more lesions show up on MRI after improper chelation protocols. The information given in the abstract is not enough detail to know what happened, what was done, so no conclusions can be drawn or reasonable comments can be made. It would be great to have the whole journal article to read. It is most important to ensure that you are chelating properly. It would help if you give the doses you are using, frequency of doses, length of rounds, his weight, what supplements he is taking, and tell us about any observations you have made so far. Also, what were the other interventions in the last 8 years?
