It is commonly used in cases of poisoning to help remove toxic substances from the body. Methyl alcohol, barbiturates, and ethylene glycol are all substances that can be effectively removed through dialysis. However, copper sulfate poisoning is not typically treated with dialysis as it is not easily removed by this method. Therefore, the correct answer is copper sulfate.Rate this question:

Masochism, which is the enjoyment of receiving pain or humiliation, is associated with sexual asphyxia because individuals who engage in masochistic behavior may find pleasure in the sensation of being deprived of oxygen. This behavior is consensual and typically practiced within the boundaries of a safe and consensual BDSM relationship.Rate this question:

- A.
Alkaloid poisoning
- B.
Organophosphorus poisoning
- C.
Volatile organic poisoning
- D.
Heavy metal poisoning
Correct Answer
D. Heavy metal poisoningExplanation
Heavy metal poisoning does not require preservation of the brain because heavy metals primarily affect other organs such as the kidneys, liver, and lungs. The brain is not the primary target organ for heavy metal toxicity. In contrast, alkaloid poisoning, organophosphorus poisoning, and volatile organic poisoning can all affect the central nervous system, including the brain, and therefore preservation of the brain may be necessary in these cases.Rate this question:
