Newest firstObjectives: One of the major trends in modern computational toxicology is the development of explainable predictive tools. However, the complex nature of the mechanistic representation of biological organisms and the lack of relevant data remain limiting factors. Methods: This work provides a publicly available dataset of 12,654 compounds with mouse intravenous LD50 values, as well as docking scores (Vina-GPU 2.0)…
Open article record in new tab ↗Objectives Different Cannabis sativa chemovars produce diverse pharmacological and behavioral effects. With the widespread use of cannabis in Nigeria, detailed toxicological effects of Nigerian chemovars are lacking. This study aimed to identify phytocannabinoids and investigate the toxic effects of an indigenous C. sativa. Materials and methods The plant samples were air-dried, powdered, extracted with ethanol, a…
Open article record in new tab ↗Humans are exposed to thousands of chemicals throughout their life. Many of these chemicals are detected in blood and have been catalogued in the Blood Exposome Database. Comprehensive hazard assessment of a chemical requires time-consuming and costly lab experiments using animal or cell-lines, which cannot be easily scaled up to the chemical exposome, highlighting the urgent need for computational approaches that…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Cannabinol (CBN) is one of the many cannabinoids present in Cannabis sativa and has been explored as a potential treatment for sleeplessness. The purpose of this study was to determine the physiological and behavioral effects of subacute exposure to therapeutic and low pharmacological levels of a mechanically formed, stabilized water-soluble cannabinol nano-emulsion (CBNight™). Methods Sixty-two male mi…
Open article record in new tab ↗BACKGROUND: Understanding emergency department and healthcare utilisation related to acute recreational drug toxicity (ARDT) generally relies on nationally collated data based on ICD-10 coding. Previous UK studies have shown this poorly captures the true ARDT burden. The aim of this study was to investigate whether this is also the case elsewhere in Europe. METHODS: The Euro-DEN Plus database was interrogated for…
BACKGROUND: Although the recreational use of psychoactive substances is common there is only limited systematic collection of data on acute drug toxicity or hospital presentations. Currently, data from Switzerland are only available from the University Hospital of Basel. The present study aimed to describe the presentations due to recreational drug use at an emergency department in Bern, Switzerland during a 4 yea…
BACKGROUND: Although the recreational use of psychoactive substances is common there is only limited systematic collection of data on acute drug toxicity or hospital presentations, in particular regarding novel psychoactive substances (NPS) that have emerged on the illicit market in the last years. METHODS: We included all cases presenting at the emergency department (ED) of the University Hospital of Basel, Switz…
Open article record in new tab ↗BACKGROUND: Psychosis can be associated with acute recreational drug and novel psychoactive substance (NPS) toxicity. However, there is limited data available on how common this is and which drugs are most frequently implicated. We describe a European case series of psychosis associated with acute recreational drug toxicity, and estimate the frequency of psychosis for different recreational drugs. METHODS: The Eur…
