Vision problems

Most displayed decreased blood cholinesterase activity. Many were observed to have affective syndromes (anxiety, fear, aggression), sometimes accompanied by symptoms of depression. Disruption of memory was noted. Vision problems are also caused by long-term contact with OPPs [A64]. In cotton growing regions with intensive OPP use, the number of spontaneous miscarriages and stillbirths was higher than elsewhere [3]. [Pg.49]

The answer is B. This patient s greasy, foul-smelling stools indicate steatorrhea. Her vision problems may be a manifestation of vitamin A deficiency due to fat malabsorption. The most likely explanation is biliary insufficiency, ie, decreased bile salt production leading to poor emulsification of dietary fats. Active ileal disease is a possibility, but the WBC count would likely be elevated unless her condition was in remission. Infection with Giardia is less likely due to the absence of pathogenic organisms in her stool. Lactose intolerance can produce diarrhea but not steatorrhea. [Pg.120]

A. Ethambutol is associated with retrobulbar neuritis, resulting in loss of central vision and impaired red-green discrimination. Ethionamide (B) is an analogue of isonicotinic acid and is associated with GI intolerance and peripheral neuropathy, but not the optic neuritis or color vision discrimination problems. Aminosalicylic acid (C) can cause GI irritation and bleeding problems, so caution is required in peptic ulcer patients. It has no neurological side effects. Rifampin (D) is associated with red-orange discoloration of saliva, tears, and urine but not the color vision problems. Isoniazid (E) is associated with peripheral neuritis in chronic alcoholics and malnourished individuals and requires pyridoxine supplements. It is not associated with optic neuritis. [Pg.565]

On a routine anticoagulation clinic evaluation, the patient s INR was elevated to 4.1 from 2.5 obtained at the prior monthly visit, albeit with no clinical evidence of bleeding. There was no reported change in any of her medication regimens, diet, or lifestyle. However, the patient indicated that she had been consuming one cup of a concentrated herbal tea made from dried fruits of L. barbarum L. several times a day, to manage blurred vision secondary to a sore eye. When she presented to the clinic, the vision problems had already resolved. The patient was advised to discontinue... [Pg.129]

The nervous system is particularly susceptible to chemical abuse. Damage to the peripheral nervous system can cause numbness, weakness, and muscle paralysis. Many inhalants have been shown to damage the myelin sheath (Figure 6.1), the protective coat around nerve cells. This causes symptoms like those seen in individuals with multiple sclerosis, including abnormal fatigue, vision problems, loss of muscle coordination, slurred speech, and tremors. Direct damage to the brain... [Pg.60]
