What Are the Clinical Manifestations of ANS Disruption by Toxins?
Disruption of the ANS by toxins can lead to a wide range of clinical symptoms depending on the specific toxin and the affected system. Sympathetic activation can cause hypertension, tachycardia, and hyperthermia, while parasympathetic overstimulation can result in bradycardia, hypotension, and hypothermia. Other symptoms include muscle weakness, respiratory distress, and altered mental status.
