I also did some research on syphilis. In 1495 the first outbreak of syphilis as an epidemic occured in Naples, Italy among soldiers. From there it spread to the Far East by 1520. It was a much more virulent disease. At about 1800 (it might be 1700) it settled into a more sporadic disease. Except during wars. One thing you missed in your symptoms is that at the late stage there were disfiguring lesions, called scirrhous lesions. There was hardened pus (like resin) called gumma. Apparently that was one of the most feared results of the disease. Mercury was often used in treatment.

2024-02-21 03:21:12 +0000 UTCI'm surprised your interest wasn't piqued when you heard Morning Glory. When I was a child, it grew in my backyard as a weed, so I knew something was up with them, I don't remember when I discovered it. It looks like the seeds are toxic, it takes 60-300 seeds to have an effect on humans. It has a tough coating, so the seed must be processed to have an effect. I don't see where it can kill a person but it can give them hallucinations. The quote below is from: ............................. Christine Stork, Jeanna Marraffa, in Encyclopedia of Toxicology (Second Edition), 2005 Mechanism of Toxicity Morning glory seeds contain the toxin lysergic acid hydroxyethylamide, which has one-tenth the potency of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD). The toxic effect, at an equivalent dose, is similar to that of LSD. To avoid abuse of morning glory seeds, commercial seed producers treat the seeds with essential oils, which are irritants, which induce nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain which precede the psychedelic effects. LSD acts on several sites in the central nervous system. It is a nonselective serotonin, or 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) agonist on both presynaptic and postsynaptic receptor sites. The 5-HT2A receptor agonism is implicated in the modulation of hallucinations. In addition to the role of serotonin in causing hallucinations, other neurotransmitters, including glutamate and D1 and D2 dopamine receptors, are implicated; yet, their role remains elusive.

2024-02-14 16:30:59 +0000 UTCFrom the light novel regarding Maomao's stare: "It was, frankly, hard to describe, but even Jinshi felt he could barely survive it. Maomao looked as if she might smash open his heart and pour molten metal so that not even ashes remained. This one look communicated to Jinshi clearly how Lakan's daughter felt about her father."
