Damage by electric current from artificial sources occurs as a result of its passage through the human body.
The high voltage electric shock causes severe thermal damage, including charring (surface burns, wounds at the entrance and exit points of the current, burned arcs). When a low-voltage current is applied, the development of cardiac arrhythmias, primary and secondary respiratory arrest, consciousness disturbances, paresthesia and paralysis are at the forefront.
Elective mutism is a group of psychopathological disorders, the specificity of which is the inability to speak in certain social situations with the preserved ability to speak and understand speech.

Elastic pseudoksantom (syn.: Grenblad-Strandberg syndrome, Touraine's systematized elastorexis) is a relatively rare systemic disease of the connective tissue with a predominant lesion of the skin, eyes, and cardiovascular system.
Eccrine acrospiroma (syn: nodular hydratenoma, light celled hydratenoma, syringoepithelioma, solid cystic hydratenoma, ekrinnaya adenoma of the clear cell type) is usually a solitary intradermal, exophytic or mixed-type node 0.5-2 cm in diameter or larger, hemispherical in shape, of a dense elastic consistency , on a wide base, covered with unchanged skin, sometimes ulcerating.
Eisenmenger syndrome is a complication of uncorrected heart defects, in which there is a discharge of blood from left to right. Often over time, the increase in vascular resistance in the lungs, causing a change in the direction of discharge to the right. Non-oxygenated blood enters a large circle of blood circulation, leading to the appearance of symptoms of hypoxia.
Ehrlichiosis (Ehrlichiosis) is a group of acute zoonotic, mainly transmissible, infectious diseases characterized by polymorphism of clinical manifestations.
