dc.description.abstractBackground and aim: Carbon monoxide poisoning is a toxicological emergency that causes neurological complications. High serum neurogranin can be detected in acute or chronic conditions where brain tissue is damaged. This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic value of serum neurogranin level and its role in demonstrating neurological damage in patients admitted to the emergency department with carbon monoxide poisoning. Materials and methods: The study was conducted prospectively on patients with carbon monoxide poisoning (patient group) and healthy volunteers (control group). Demographic characteristics and scrum neurogranin level of all participants and symptoms at admission, neurological examination findings, laboratory results, and Diffusion-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging results of the patient group were recorded. We used an independent sample t-test to compare neurogranin levels and bivariate correlation analysis to compare the relationship between serum neurogranin levels and data belonging to the patient group. Results: Sixty eight participants (patient group, n- 36; control group, n- 32) were included in the study. Serum neurogranin level was significantly higher in patients with carbon monoxide poisoning (0.31 +/- 0.16 ng/ml) compared to control group (0.22 +/- 0.10 ng/ml) (p = 0.015). The mean Glasgow Coma Scale of the patients with carbon monoxide poisoning was 14.59 +/- 0.23, and of Diffusion Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging results were completely normal in 94.4% (n = 34). There was no correlation between serum neurogranin level and Diffusion Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging results (r = -0.011; p = 0.953). Conclusion: Serum neurogranin level may be a new diagnostic biomarker in patients admitted to the emergency department with carbon monoxide poisoning. The high serum neurogranin levels detected in patients with normal diffusion-weighted imaging after carbon monoxide poisoning suggest that there is neurological damage in these patients, even if imaging methods cannot detect it.
