This can lead to an increase in nitrogen levels in the bloodstream, which can be toxic.

Generalized vascular calcification and nephrocalcinosis are medical conditions where there is an abnormal accumulation of calcium in the blood vessels and kidneys, respectively. This can cause the hardening and narrowing of blood vessels, leading to reduced blood flow, and in severe cases, organ damage.

Conjunctivitis, also known as pink eye, can result from an infection or inflammation of the conjunctiva, the thin membrane that covers the white part of the eye. In calcific conjunctivitis, calcium deposits can form on the conjunctiva, leading to irritation and discomfort.

Pancreatitis is a condition where the pancreas becomes inflamed, causing abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. The condition can range from mild to severe, and in some cases, can cause long-term damage to the pancreas.

Photophobia is a medical condition where the eyes are overly sensitive to light, causing discomfort and pain in bright environments. This can be a symptom of an underlying condition or injury to the eyes.
