There are a few instances of dead rats in the game that can optionally be picked up and examined, but they do not die on-screen and interacting with them is entirely optional

Various detailed dead bodies can be found throughout the game, and can be especially queasy to look at. Additionally, killing Barnacles causes them to vomit out human blood and and human bones, including skulls and spine segments.

Or rather, the aftermath of eye mutilation; When the player sees beneath the Combine soldiers masks, they discover their eyes have been cut out and replaced with wires connecting into their helmets.

Yes, if needles are a trigger for you then the Combine medical stations will be very difficult to stomach as they work by jabbing Alyx's hand with many different needles repeatedly, which she audibly feels.

The fact that the game is a VR game means that it could cause motion sickness for some players.

Yes, and due to its nature as a VR game the experience of being shot at and shooting at others can be very visceral. Not recommended for those with gun violence triggers.
