Brief Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical value of plasma diquat concentration in guiding personalized extracorporeal treatment regimens for patients with acute diquat poisoning.
Detailed Description: Diquat (1,1'-ethylene-2,2'-bipyridinium) is a bipyridine herbicide with a structure similar to paraquat. Upon ingestion, diquat induces harmful effects on multiple organ sysmtems, including the gastrointestinal, kidney, liver, musculoskeletal, respiratory, cardiovascular, and central nervous systems. Lethal diquat poisoning primarily manifests as severe toxic encephalopathy and circulatory failure, leading to a high mortality rate. Extracorporeal treatment is widely used in cases of diquat poisoning. ECTRs refer to treatments where toxins are removed outside the body, usually through a circuit. Specifically, ECTRs include hemoperfusion (HP), hemodialysis (HD), continuous kidney replacement treatment (CKRT), extended dialysis, peritoneal dialysis (technically intracorporeal), hemofiltration, hemodiafiltration, therapeutic plasma exchange, and albumin/"liver" dialysis. Several studies have demonstrated that HP can significantly reduce plasma paraquat concentrations, and HP is superior than HD in the clearance of diquat. Additionally, clinical case reports have shown that HP, often combined with CKRT, effectively reduces diquat levels and improves clinical outcomes in patients with diquat poisoning. Continuous veno-venous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF), a type of CKRT, is primarily used for patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) or fluid overload. The primary goal of CVVHDF is to provide continuous kidney support by removing excess fluids and solutes, there by maintaining electrolyte and acid-base balance. AKI, which is a common consequence of diquat poisoning, impairs kidney function and thus reduces the kidney's ability to clear diquat formula from the plasma. A study reported an AKI incidence of 73.3% in patients with diquat poisoning, indicating many may need CVVHDF. However, the Extracorporeal Treatments in Poisoning (EXTRIP) workgroup does not provide a definitive recommendation on the use of ECTR for diquat poisoning. Aside from case reports and series, there is a lack of evidence to guide clinicians on the optimal application of ECTR in managing diquat poisoning.
