| intestinal rotation | See: malrotation. Molecular rotation, one hundredth of the product of the specific rotation of an optically active compound and its molecular weight. Optical rotation, the change in the plane of polarization of polarised light of a given wavelength upon passing through optically active substances; measured in terms of specific rotation by polarimetry, an important tool in chemical structural work, especially on carbohydrates. Specific optical rotation ([a]), the arc through which the plane of polarised light is rotated by 1 gram of a substance per milliliter of water when the length of the light path through the solution is 1 decimeter, typically using light corresponding to the D line of sodium.

| centre of rotation | A point or line around which all other points in a body move. See: axis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| rotation | <dentistry> A movement in which the tooth turned along the long axis of the tooth. (08 Jan 1998) |
| rotation flap | A pedicle flap that is rotated from the donor site to an adjacent recipient area, usually as a direct flap. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rotation therapy | Teletherapy in which a desirable radiation dose distribution is achieved by rotating the patient or machine about an axis passing through the centre of the tumour. (05 Mar 2000) |
| short rotation energy plantation | Plantings established and managed under short-rotation intensive culture practices. (05 Dec 1998) |
| short rotation intensive culture | Intensive management and harvesting at 2 to 10 year intervals of cycles of specially selected fast- growing hardwood species for the purpose of producing wood as an energy feedstock. (05 Dec 1998) |
| anterior intestinal portal | Anterior intestinal portal; the opening of the foregut into the midgut. See: epigastric fossa. Synonym: anterior intestinal portal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gas, intestinal | The complaint referred to as intestinal gas is a common one and the discomfort can be quite significant. Everyone has gas and eliminates it by burping or passing it through the rectum. In many instances people think they have too much gas when in reality they have normal amounts. most people produce 1 to 3 pints of intestinal gas in 24 hours and pass gas an average of 14 times a day. It is made up primarily of odourless vapors such as carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, and in some families, methane. The unpleasant odour is due to bacteria in the large intestine that release small amounts of gases containing sulfur. (12 Dec 1998) |
| vasoactive intestinal contractor | Mouse homologue of endothelin 2. (18 Nov 1997) |
| vasoactive intestinal peptide | <gastroenterology, protein> Peptide of 28 amino acids, originally isolated from porcine intestine, but later found in the central nervous system where it acts as a neuropeptide and is released by specific interneurons. May also affect behaviour of cells of the immune system. Acronym: VIP (05 Jan 1998) |
| vasoactive intestinal polypeptide | A polypeptide hormone secreted most commonly by non-beta islet cell tumours of the pancreas, producing copious watery diarrhoea and faecal electrolyte loss, particularly hypokalaemia; VIP increases the rates of glycogenolysis; stimulates pancreatic bicarbonate secretion. Synonym: vasoactive intestinal peptide. (05 Mar 2000) |
| receptors, vasoactive intestinal peptide | Cell surface proteins that bind vasoactive intestinal peptide (vip) with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes which influence the behaviour of cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| megacystitis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome | <syndrome> A rare condition characterised by abdominal distention, lax abdominal musculature, incomplete intestinal rotation, and deficient intestinal peristalsis. A large bladder and often vesicoureteral reflux are seen. Typically affects female neonates and usually fatal in first year of life. (05 Mar 2000) |
| multiple intestinal polyposis | Begins usually in late childhood; polyps increase in numbers, causing symptoms of chronic colitis, and carcinoma of the colon almost invariably develops in untreated cases; autosomal dominant inheritance. In the Gardner syndrome there are extracolonic changes (desmoid tumours, etc.). Synonym: polyposis coli. Hamartomatous polyposis of the small or large intestine, Peutz-Jeghers syndrome with melanin spots on the lips, less common, miscellaneous, rare, and doubtful occurrences. Synonym: familial intestinal polyposis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior intestinal portal | In young embryos, the communications from the midgut to the hindgut. (05 Mar 2000) |
