|---|---|
| controlled respiration | Intermittent application of mechanically or manually generated positive pressure to gas(es) in or about the airway as a means of forcing gases into the lungs in the absence of spontaneous ventilatory efforts. Synonym: controlled respiration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| controlled substance | A substance subject to the Controlled Substances Act (1970), which regulates the prescribing and dispensing, as well as the manufacturing, storage, sale, or distribution of substance's assigned to five schedules according to their 1) potential for or evidence of abuse, 2) potential for psychic or physiologic dependence, 3) contributing a public health risk, 4) harmful pharmacologic effect, or 5) role as a precursor of other controlled substance's. (05 Mar 2000) |
| controlled thermonuclear fusion | <radiobiology> The process in which light nuclei, heated to a high temperature in a confined region, undergo fusion reactions under controlled conditions, with associated release of energy which may be harnessed for useful purposes. (09 Oct 1997) |
| controlled thermonuclear research | General label for research on controlled thermonuclear fusion reactions. (09 Oct 1997) |
| controlled trial | A clinical study in which one group of participants receives an experimental drug while another group receives either a placebo or an approved standard therapy. When participants do not know which group they are in, the trial is blinded. See: Double-Blind. (09 Oct 1997) |
| controlled ventilation | Intermittent application of mechanically or manually generated positive pressure to gas(es) in or about the airway as a means of forcing gases into the lungs in the absence of spontaneous ventilatory efforts. Synonym: controlled respiration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| controlling element | A transposon which, when inserted into or removed from a gene, breaks the chromosome and/or causes mutations. (09 Oct 1997) |
| Centres for Disease Control | The federal facility for disease eradication, epidemiology, and education headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, which encompasses the Centre for Infectious Diseases, Centre for Environmental Health, Centre for Health Promotion and Education, Centre for Prevention Services, Centre for Professional Development and Training, and Centre for Occupational Safety and Health. Formerly named Centre for Disease Control (1970), Communicable Disease Centre (1946). (05 Mar 2000) |

| centres for disease control and prevention | See: CDC. (12 Dec 1998) |
| riot control agents, chemical | Chemical substances which are employed during a riot in order to control or disperse the rioting parties. (12 Dec 1998) |
| growth control | <cell biology> When applied to cells usually means control of growth of the population, i.e. Of the rate of division rather than of the size of an individual cell. (18 Nov 1997) |
| pest control | The reduction or regulation of the population of noxious, destructive, or dangerous insects or other animals. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pest control, biological | The use of biological mechanisms, usually involving living organisms such as bacteria, for the reduction or regulation of the population of noxious, destructive, or dangerous pests. Environmental concerns have focused attention on natural forms of disease control as potentially safe and effective alternatives to chemical pesticides. This has led to increased efforts to develop control strategies that rely on natural predators and parasites or that involve genetically engineered microbial pest control agents. (12 Dec 1998) |
| rodent control | The reduction or regulation of the population of noxious, destructive, or dangerous rodents through chemical, biological, or other means. (12 Dec 1998) |
| weed control | <botany> Mechanical or chemical control of unwanted plants. Measures which have to be undertaken in a plant community to guarantee the growth of the desired vegetation. See: herbicide. (09 Oct 1997) |

| mosquito control | The reduction or regulation of the population of mosquitoes through chemical, biological, or other means. (12 Dec 1998) |
| poison control centres | Facilities which provide information concerning poisons and treatment of poisoning in emergencies. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cost control | The containment, regulation, or restraint of costs. Costs are said to be contained when the value of resources committed to an activity is not considered excessive. This determination is frequently subjective and dependent upon the specific geographic area of the activity being measured. (12 Dec 1998) |
| population control | Includes mechanisms or programs which control the numbers of individuals in a population of humans or animals. (12 Dec 1998) |
| positive control | Mechanism for gene regulation that requires that a regulatory protein must interact with some region of the gene before transcription can be activated. (18 Nov 1997) |
| self-control | 1. Self-regulation of one's behaviour in accordance with personal beliefs, goals, attitudes and societal expectations. 2. Use by an individual of active coping strategies to deal with problem situations, in contrast to passive conditioning strategies which do things to the individual and require no action by the person.
