| 영문 | brain stem | 한글 | 뇌줄기 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 뇌줄기이란 대뇌와 척수를 이어주는 다리 역할을 하는 뇌의 부분으로 이곳에는 중간뇌, 다리뇌, 숨뇌의 3개의 부분이 포함된다. 이곳은 대뇌에서 나가는 운동신경과 대뇌로 들어오는 감각신경의 중요한 통로가 있는 곳이며, 동시에 대부분의 뇌신경(척수를 거치지 않고 나가는 신경, 즉 뇌에서 직접 나오고 들어오는 신경을 이르는 말)의 중요한 요지이다. |

| 영문 | blood-brain barrier(BBB) | 한글 | 혈뇌장벽 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 뇌와 척수에는 혈류로부터 어떤 물질이 유입되는 것을 막는 장벽이다. 이것은 뇌와 척수에 존재하는 모세혈관의 투과성이 비교적 다른 모세혈관의 투과성보다 떨어지기 때문이다. |

| 영문 | blood-brain barrier | 한글 | 혈액뇌장벽 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 혈액으로부터 뇌로는 지질용해성이 높은 약물밖에 이행되지 않는다. 수용성의 약물을 뇌로 이행되지 않게 하고 있는 것이 혈액뇌장벽이며 뇌의 모세혈관 내피세포, 모세혈관 주위의 세포가 장벽이 되고 있다. 물질교환은 수동확산에 의해 이루어지지만, 뇌의 생리적 활동에 필요한 물질은 이온형이라도 담체를 통해 이행된다. |

| controlled thermonuclear research | General label for research on controlled thermonuclear fusion reactions. (09 Oct 1997) |
| health outcomes research | The measurement of the value of a particular course of therapy. Health outcomes research is based on the principle that every clinical intervention produces a change in the health status of a patient and that change can be measured. (12 Dec 1998) |
| health services research | The integration of epidemiologic, sociological, economic, and other analytic sciences in the study of health services. Health services research is usually concerned with relationships between need, demand, supply, use, and outcome of health services. The aim of the research is evaluation, particularly in terms of structure, process, output, and outcome. (12 Dec 1998) |
