| mold | A large group of fungi (like Penicillium) that cause mold (as on bread or cheese). A common trigger for allergies. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| mold guide | A guide used to specify the shape of artificial teeth, or of an artificial tooth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pink bread mold | A fungus of the group Ascomycetes. It is haploid and grows as a mycelium. There are two mating types and fusion of nuclei of two opposite types leads to meiosis followed by mitosis. The resulting eight nuclei generate eight ascospores. These are arranged linearly in an ordered fashion in a pod like ascus, so that the various products of meiotic division can be identified and isolated. Because of this, Neurospora crassa is one of the classic organisms for genetic research, studies on biochemical mutants led Beadle and Tatum to propose the seminal one gene one enzyme hypothesis. (18 Nov 1997) |
| acute lobar nephrosis | A severe but localised bacterial infection of the renal parenchyma that may produce a mass effect simulating a renal abscess. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acute nephrosis | Acute oliguric renal failure, especially that caused by certain poisons. (05 Mar 2000) |
| amyloid nephrosis | The nephrotic syndrome due to deposition of amyloid in the kidney. See: renal amyloidosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bile nephrosis | <gastroenterology, nephrology> Acute renal failure occurring in a patient with liver failure. The exact causal relationship in unclear, but those with alcoholic cirrhosis and alcoholic hepatitis are at greatest risk. Symptoms include decreased or absent urine production, jaundice, abdominal swelling, delirium, confusion, nausea and vomiting. Prognosis is very poor. (27 Sep 1997) |
| vacuolar nephrosis | Vacuolation of the epithelial cytoplasm of renal convoluted tubules in patients seriously depleted of potassium; vacuoles do not contain fat or glycogen, concentrating ability is impaired, polyuria and polydipsia are common, and pyelonephritis may develop. Synonym: vacuolar nephrosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cholaemic nephrosis | An obsolete term for the occurrence of acute renal failure in jaundiced patients; the kidneys contain tubular casts of bile and may show tubular necrosis, but there is little evidence that jaundice or bile casts directly damage the kidneys. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cholemic nephrosis | <nephrology> Acute renal failure occurring in a patient with liver failure. The exact causal relationship in unclear, but those with alcoholic cirrhosis and alcoholic hepatitis are at greatest risk. Symptoms include decreased or absent urine production, jaundice, abdominal swelling, delirium, confusion, nausea and vomiting. Prognosis is very poor. (15 Jan 1998) |
| haemoglobinuric nephrosis | Acute oliguric renal failure associated with haemoglobinuria, due to massive intravascular haemolysis, e.g., following an incompatible blood transfusion; the kidneys show the morphologic changes of hypoxic nephrosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hypoxic nephrosis | Acute oliguric renal failure following haemorrhage, burns, shock, or other causes of hypovolaemia and reduced renal blood flow; frequently associated with patchy tubular necrosis, tubulorrhexis, and distal tubular casts of haemoglobin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nephrosis | A type of nephritis that is characterised by low serum albumin, large amount of protein in the urine and swelling (oedema). Swelling, weight gain, high blood pressure and anorexia are key features. Nephrotic syndrome can be seen with a number of illness that cause damage to the kidney glomerulus. Examples include diabetes, hereditary disorders, lupus, multiple myeloma, amyloidosis, glomerulonephritis, minimal change disease and membranous glomerulonephritis. (27 Sep 1997) |
| nephrosis, lipoid | Glomerular disease causing heavy proteinuria characterised by absence of obvious histologic glomerular changes on light microscopy. It is also called minimal change glomerular disease and minimal lesion glomerulonephritis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| osmotic nephrosis | Swelling of renal tubular epithelium associated with glomerular filtration of sugars and dextrose; the swelling is due to formation of cytoplasmic vesicles by pinocytosis, and is reversible, probably with no dysfunction, when produced by glucose or mannitol. (05 Mar 2000) |
