Botulism is a rare disease with 4 naturally occurring syndromes: foodborne botulism is caused by ingestion of foods contaminated with botulinum toxin, wound botulism is caused by Clostridium botulinum colonization of a wound and in situ toxin production, infant botulism is caused by intestinal colonization and toxin production, and adult intestinal ...

During the period 1958-1983, 986 outbreaks of botulism occurred in China, affecting 4,377 individuals and resulting in 548 deaths. The initial cases of botulism were found in Xinjiang province, where the incidence was highest. Outbreaks have occurred in all of the northern provinces and in some of the southern provinces of China.

To the Editor.— A recent article by Puggiari and Cherington, "Botulism and Guanidine: Ten Years Later" (240:2276, 1978), reported on two additional cases of botulism treated with guanidine hydrochloride. The authors noted improved strength of ocular and limb muscles but not of respiratory muscles. They then reviewed the literature and noted that "some

Archives of Neurology, 1980
Although botulinum toxin is thought not to affect the human CNS, previous studies have not examined those behaviors, such as memory, that have been shown to be dependent on central acetylcholine transmission. In eight patients with type A botulism, subjective analysis, bedside memory testing, and formal memory testing with Hebb's verbal sequencing test,

Medical Hypotheses, 1986
Botulism is induced by botulinum toxin and the mechanism of the disease is unknown. In another study, a fatal autoimmune disease was produced in animals by immunization with a fraction of choline acetyltransferase. When these two syndromes are compared, numerous similarities are observed.

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 1984
Two cases of type A botulism in elderly patients are presented, followed by an overview of the disease. Typical features demonstrated by these patients included home food preservation, multiple cases, and early GI tract symptoms followed by diplopia, ptosis, generalized weakness, and respiratory impairment while sensation and deep tendon reflexes ...

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 2001
Botulism should be considered in cases where weakness, paralysis, or intolerance to exercise might be seen in the horse. Dysphagia may also be present, although it is not a consistent finding. Potential sources include carrion in hay, moldy or otherwise rotted vegetation or forage, birds carrying material from animal burial or other similar sites, and ...
