|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 박테리아보다 덜 진화된, 생물과 무생물의 중간단계에 해당하는 것. 혼자서는 생존능력이 없으므로 반드시 다른 세포내에 속해 있어야 한다. 인체에 발생하는 많은 병중, 이 바이러스로 인해 발생하는 경우가 많으며, 이 때 대부분 특이한 치료법은 없는 실정이다. 일부 헤르페스바이러스 계통에는 치료약이 개발되어 있지만, 이것도 일부 질병에서만 치료가 가능하다. 또한, Ebstein-Barr virus, Human papilloma virus 등은 암의 발생과 연관되어 있으며, 동물에서 발생하는 대부분의 암종은 바이러스와 연관되어 있는 경우가 많다. 요즘, 일부 지역에서 큰 유행을 하고 있는 후천성면역결핍증후군(AIDS)도 HIV(Human Immunodeficiency Virus)와 관련이 있다. |

| 영문 | influenza virus | 한글 | 인플루엔자바이러스 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 인플루엔자의 병원체. 상기도 점막에 침입하여 호흡기 질환을 일으킨다. 보체 결합 항원의 차이에 따라 A-B-C 세형태로 나뉘며, 유행할 때마다 혈구 응집 항원이 변이하여 광범위한 유행을 나타낸다. 껍질이 있는 80~150nm의 공모양, 나선 대칭 RNA 바이러스이다. 두 종류의 스파이크, 뉴라미니다아제(neuraminidase, NA), 당단백질과 헤마글루티닌(hemagglution, HA) 당단백질을 만든다. A형의 NA에는 N1-N2의 두 종류, HA에는 HAO-HA1-HA2-HA3의 네 종류가 있다. A형은 말-돼지-새에 감염하며 새로운 아형은 동물 바이러스와의 조환형이며, 그 밖에 동일 아형내 점변이가 있다. B, C형은 사람 이외에는 감염되지 않는다. 닭의 적혈구를 응집하는 성질이 있다. 바이러스 진단에는 환자의 인두 세척액에서 분리한다든가, 또는 환자의 혈청항체에 의한 특이적 적혈구 응집저지검사, 뉴라미니다아제 활성저지검사 또는 중화검사 등으로 검출한다. |

| rubella | <disease, virology> An acute, usually benign, infectious disease caused by a togavirus and most often affecting children and nonimmune young adults, in which the virus enters the respiratory tract via droplet nuclei and spreads to the lymphatic system. It is characterised by a slight cold, sore throat and fever, followed by enlargement of the postauricular, suboccipital and cervical lymph nodes and the appearances of a fine pink rash that begins on the head and spreads to become generalised. Synonym: German measles, rubeola. Origin: L. Rubellus = reddish, ruber = red (17 Dec 1997) |
| rubella cataract | Embryopathic cataract secondary to intrauterine rubella infection. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rubella HI test | A haemagglutination inhibition (HI) test for rubella, often performed routinely as part of a prenatal workup of the pregnant woman; the presence of any detectable HI titre in the absence of disease indicates previous infection and immunity to reinfection; if HI antibody is undetected, the patient is considered potentially susceptible and is followed accordingly. See: haemagglutination inhibition. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rubella immunization | The standard MMR vaccine is given to prevent measles, mumps and rubella (german measles). The mmr vaccine is now given in two dosages. The first should be given at12-15 months of age. The second vaccination should be given at 4-6 years (or, alternatively, 11-12 years) of age. most colleges require proof of a second measles or mmr vaccination prior to entrance. Most children should receive mmr vaccinations. Exceptions may include children born with an inability to fight off infection, some children with cancer, on treatment with radiation or drugs for cancer, on long term steroids (cortisone). People with severe allergic reactions to eggs or the drug neomycin should probably avoid the mmr vaccine. Pregnant women should wait until after delivery before being immunised with mmr. People with HIV or aids should normally receive mmr vaccine. Measles, mumps, and rubella vaccines may be administered as individual shots, if necessary, or as a measles-rubella combination.

| rubella retinopathy | Peripheral pigmentary retinal changes in congenital rubella, not affecting visual function. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rubella syndrome, congenital | Transplacental infection of the foetus with rubella usually in the first trimester of pregnancy, as a consequence of maternal infection, resulting in various developmental abnormalities in the newborn infant. They include cardiac and ocular lesions, deafness, microcephaly, mental retardation, and generalised growth retardation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| congenital rubella syndrome | <syndrome> Foetal infection with rubella virus during the first trimester of pregnancy resulting in a series of congenital abnormalities including heart disease, deafness, and blindness. (05 Mar 2000) |

| atypical measles | Sometimes severe, unusual clinical manifestation of natural measles virus infection in persons with waning vaccination immunity, particularly in those who had received formaldehyde-inactivated vaccine; an accelerated allergic reaction apparently resulting from an anamnestic antibody response, characterised by high fever, absence of Koplik's spots, a shortened prodromal period, atypical rash, and pneumonia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| black measles | An acute tick-borne illness caused by the bacteria Rickettsia rickettsii. The disease is characterised by sudden onset of headache, chills and fever which can persist for 2-3 weeks. A characteristic rash appears on the extremities and trunk about the 4th day of illness. (27 Sep 1997) |
