Phantosmia Other leading causes of phantosmia include neurological disorders such as schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease. Both of these disorders have well documented cases of hallucinations, most commonly visual and auditory. Both also, however, have instances of phantosmia too, although not as frequently.

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS, POS, POD, Stein-Leventhal Syndrome) What causes polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)? No one is quite sure what causes PCOS, and it is likely to be the result of a number of both genetic (inherited) as well as environmental factors. Women with PCOS often have a mother or sister with the condition, and researchers are examining the role that genetics or gene mutations might play in its development.

- The exact cause of preeclampsia and eclampsia is not fully understood, but it is believed to be a disorder of the lining of blood vessels. Abnormalities of the placenta have also been described. It likely arises due to a combination of factors, including both genetic and environmental influences. A number of genes have been studied as being potentially involved in preeclampsia, and there is an increased risk for women with affected family members.

Fish Odor Syndrome (Trimethylaminuria) 1 Other causes of odor body can occur as a result from an excess of proteins in the diet, or from an increase in bacteria that normally produce trimethylamine in the GI tract (also may make fish odor syndrome worse); liver disease, kidney disease, poor hygiene, gingivitis, and cases of blood-borne halitosis.

Phantosmia: What causes olfactory hallucinations? The odors detected in phantosmia vary from person to person and may be foul or pleasant. They can occur in one or both nostrils. The phantom smell may seem to always be present or it may come and go. Phantosmia may occur after a head injury or upper respiratory infection. It can also be caused by temporal lobe seizures, inflamed sinuses, brain tumors and Parkinson's disease.

Amblyopia Amblyopia has three main causes: 1  Strabismic: by strabismus (misaligned eyes) 2  Refractive: by anisometropia (high degrees of nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism in one or both eyes) 3  Deprivational: by deprivation of vision early in life by vision-obstructing disorders such as congenital cataract.

- When something happens to change the balance of these organisms, yeast can grow too much and cause symptoms. Taking antibiotics sometimes causes this imbalance. The high estrogen levels caused by pregnancy or hormone therapy can also cause it. So can certain health problems, like diabetes or HIV infection.

- CAUSES In many cases, the cause of a birth defect is not known. But sometimes a defect may be caused by one of the following: • Poor nutrition during early pregnancy. This is thought to be one cause of cleft lip and palate. • Genetic (hereditary).

Drug Causes of Hyperthermia Medication causes list: About medication causes: Another misdiagnosis possibility is that a particular medication or substance may be the real cause of the disease. Certain medications, chemicals, toxins or substances may possibly be underlying causes of Hyperthermia. Side effects of medications, or exposure to toxins, chemicals, or other substances may cause a symptom or condition.

Causes of Pseudohypoparathyroidism Causes of Pseudohypoparathyroidism. The causes of pseudohypoparathyroidism are inherited genetic abnormalities. Depending on the nature of the genetic problem, pseudohypoparathyroidism may develop into one of three types. Type 1A is inherited from just one parent and causing growth problems.

- Back to Top Causes. Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is caused by a gene defect. Persons with this condition cannot break down the amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine. This leads to a buildup of these chemicals in the blood.n the most severe form, MSUD can damage the brain during times of physical stress (such as infection, fever, or not eating for a long time). Some types of MSUD are mild or come and go. Even in the mildest form, repeated periods of physical stress can cause intellectual disability and high levels of leucine.

Causes Causes. There is no known single cause for autism spectrum disorder, but it is generally accepted that it is caused by abnormalities in brain structure or function. Brain scans show differences in the shape and structure of the brain in children with autism compared to in neurotypical children.here is no known single cause for autism spectrum disorder, but it is generally accepted that it is caused by abnormalities in brain structure or function.

Causes of Glioblastoma Causes of Glioblastoma. Causes of Glioblastoma. Glioblastoma is caused by chromosome defects and specific gene mutations that lead to uncontrolled growth of certain brain cells. There are several known environmental factors that can cause chromosomal changes, such as chemicals and radiation, in addition to as yet unidentified carcinogenic agents.

Pku 1 Genetic conditions. Sometimes an intellectual disability is caused by abnormal genes inherited from parents, errors when genes combine, or other reasons. Examples of genetic conditions are Down syndrome, fragile X syndrome, and phenylketonuria (PKU).  Problems during pregnancy.

Causes and Prevention of Intellectual Disability 1 Due to a missing or defective enzyme, children with PKU cannot process a part of a protein called phenylalanine. 2  Without treatment, phenylalanine builds up in the blood and causes intellectual disability. 3  Down syndrome is an example of a chromosomal disorder.

Abnormal Posturing and Potential Causes MLD is usually caused by the lack of an important enzyme called arylsulfatase A. Because this enzyme is missing, chemicals called sulfatides build up in and damage the nervous system, kidneys, gallbladder, and other organs. In particular, the chemicals damage the protective sheaths that surround nerve cells.

Pfeiffer syndrome Pfeiffer syndrome Causes. The cause of Pfeiffer syndrome is genetic and is associated with the Fribroblast growth factor receptors one and two. These receptors are important for normal, healthy bone development. In Pfeiffer syndrome these growth factors mutate and affect the bones in the head.he cause of Pfeiffer syndrome is genetic and is associated with the Fribroblast growth factor receptors one and two.

- There are many causes of intellectual disability, but doctors find a specific reason in only 25% of cases. Risk factors are related to the causes. Causes of intellectual disability can include: 1  Infections (present at birth or occurring after birth). 2  Chromosomal abnormalities (such as Down syndrome). 3  Environmental.
