| secretory rate | The amount of a substance secreted by cells or by a specific organ or organism over a given period of time; usually applies to those substances which are formed by glandular tissues and are released by them into biological fluids, e.g., secretory rate of corticosteroids by the adrenal cortex, secretory rate of gastric acid by the gastric mucosa.

| sedimentation rate | A sedimentation rate, or sed rate , is a blood test that detects and monitors inflammation activity. It is measured by recording the rate at which red blood cells (rbcs) sediment in a tube over time. It increases (the rbcs sediment faster) with more inflammation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pulse rate | Rate of the pulse as observed in an artery; recorded as beats per minute. (05 Mar 2000) |
| shear rate | The change in velocity of parallel planes in a flowing fluid separated by unit distance; its units expressed in seconds-1. (05 Mar 2000) |
| slew rate | In electronic pacemaker function, the maximum rate of change of an amplifier output voltage; important variable affecting heart function as controlled by an electronic pacemaker. Sensing circuits in the pacemaker often respond to the slew rate rather than to the absolute amplitude of the voltage pulse. (05 Mar 2000) |
| steady-state rate | The velocity of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction in which, over the time course of the study, the concentration of any enzyme species is constant (i.e., for an enzyme-substrate binary complex, ES, d[ES]/dt&apprxeq;00; for this to hold true, the total enzyme concentration must be much less than the initial substrate concentration. Synonym: steady-state rate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| neonatal mortality rate | The number of children dying under 28 days of age divided by the number of live births that year. The neonatal mortality rate in the united states, which was 8.4 per 1,000 live births in 1980, declined to 5.8 per 1,000 live births in 1990. (12 Dec 1998) |
| steroid metabolic clearance rate | A measure of the rate of metabolism of a given steroid within the body, usually expressed as liters of body fluid that contain the amount of steroid metabolised per day. (05 Mar 2000) |
| steroid production rate | The total quantity of a given steroid formed in the body, usually expressed as milligrams per day; represents the sum of the glandular secretion of the steroid and extraglandular formation of it from various steroid precursors. (05 Mar 2000) |
| steroid secretory rate | The rate of glandular secretion of a given steroid, usually expressed as milligrams per day; does not include any amount of the steroid that might be formed extraglandularly. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stillbirth rate | The number of foetal deaths divided by the sum of live births and foetal deaths occurring in the same population during the same time period. Synonym: stillbirth rate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| death rate | The number of deaths in the population divided by the average population (or the population at midyear) is the crude death rate. In 1994, for example, the crude death rate per 1,000 population was 8.8 in the United States, 7.1 in Australia, etc. A death rate can also be tabulated according to age or cause. (12 Dec 1998) |
| survival rate | The proportion of survivors in a group, e.g., of patients, studied and followed over a period, or the proportion of persons in a specified group alive at the beginning of a time interval who survive to the end of the interval. It is often studied using life table methods. (12 Dec 1998) |
| discount rate | A rate used to convert future costs or benefits to their present value. (05 Dec 1998) |
| inception rate | The rate at which new spells of illness or cases of a condition occur in a population. (05 Mar 2000) |
