ocular effects
musculoskeletal effects
Pyridostigmine bromide and long-term adverse health effects
Exposure to sarin at low doses insufficient to cause acute cholinergic signs and symptoms and subsequent long-term adverse health effects

Multiple vaccinations and long-term adverse health effects
Limited/Suggestive Evidence of No Association
Evidence is consistent in not showing a positive association between exposure to a specific agent and a specific health outcome after exposure of any magnitude. A conclusion of no association is inevitably limited to the conditions, magnitudes of exposure, and length of observation in the available studies. The possibility of a very small increase in risk after exposure studied cannot be excluded.
