Abstract:
In recent years, with the withdrawal of paraquat (PQ) pesticides from the market, the number of poisoning cases caused by its substitute diquat (DQ) has shown an increasing trend year by year. Among the clinical manifestations of DQ poisoning, the damage to the central nervous system is relatively common and serious, but the specific toxicity mechanism is not clear, and there is no clear treatment. This article reviews the nervous system damage caused by DQ poisoning in order to improve the understanding systen of DQ poisoning.
