botulism
Some diseases that can cause death primarily by dehydration include cholera, severe cases of acute gastroenteritis (such as from rotavirus or norovirus), and severe cases of kidney disease or failure. These conditions can lead to excessive loss of fluids and electrolytes, resulting in severe dehydration and potentially fatal consequences.
Botulism, caused by the botulinum toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, is a rare but serious illness. While exact numbers of victims can vary year by year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports around 145 cases of botulism each year in the United States, with less than 10% resulting in death. Globally, the number of cases is low, but severe cases can lead to significant morbidity and mortality if not treated promptly.
Electric shocks cause death in 3-15% of cases
Infant botulism and SIDS have a similar age of death demographics [peak age is around two to four months], but the botulism is easily found in an autopsy.
Malignant hypertension causes death in approximately 30% of cases
Clostridium bacteria can cause diseases such as botulism, tetanus, and gas gangrene. Botulism is caused by Clostridium botulinum and results in muscle paralysis. Tetanus, caused by Clostridium tetani, leads to muscle stiffness and spasms. Gas gangrene, caused by Clostridium perfringens, can lead to tissue death and serious infections.
Not always, but it can in some severe cases.
