Poisoning has always been pointed as one of the leading causes of human death throughout the world. Despite the best efforts made by many research institutes, the worldwide true figure on mortalities with poisoning could never be achieved due to many reasons. One of the main reasons is the unavailability of complete database from the rural and catchment areas of the world where these types of incidents are usual. People can be made aware about this problem by presenting data articles on regular basis, therefore to mark a resource document these data should be regularly up-dated. The current data report is a briefing of types and trends of chemical poisoning amongst human in southern hilly region of Himachal Pradesh (HP), India. This research database is an outcome of five year retrospective study based on assessment of records pertaining human deaths associated with poisoning occurred in southern Himachal Pradesh, and reported at State Forensic Science Laboratory (SFSL), Junga during 2010-14. Cases where ethyl alcohol was detected have been put under exclusion criterion. All the cases were reviewed and summarized in terms of yearly and monthly frequency of reports wrapping important information portraying the involvement of gender, age, locality, types of poison, and mode of death in the poisoning incidents. Review of these scientific reports showed some notable figures having a direct concern with public and legal domains to promote risk reduction and prevention of chemical poisonings.
中毒一直被视为全球人类死亡的主要原因之一。尽管许多研究机构付出了最大努力，但由于多种原因，全球中毒死亡的真实数字始终无法得知。主要原因之一是世界农村和集水区缺乏完整的数据库，而这些地区这类事件很常见。通过定期发布数据文章，可以让人们了解这个问题，因此为了标记一份资源文件，这些数据应该定期更新。当前的数据报告是关于印度喜马偕尔邦（HP）南部山区人类化学中毒类型和趋势的简报。这个研究数据库是一项为期五年的回顾性研究的成果，该研究基于对喜马偕尔邦南部与中毒相关的人类死亡记录的评估，这些记录于2010 - 2014年在Junga的国家法医学实验室（SFSL）报告。检测出含有乙醇的案例已被列入排除标准。所有案例都根据报告的年度和月度频率进行了审查和总结，涵盖了描绘中毒事件中性别、年龄、地点、毒物类型和死亡方式的重要信息。对这些科学报告的审查显示了一些与公共和法律领域直接相关的显著数字，以促进减少化学中毒风险和预防工作。
