| craniofacial abnormalities | Congenital structural deformities, malformations, or other abnormalities of the cranium and facial bones. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| skin abnormalities | Congenital structural abnormalities of the skin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neonatal diseases and abnormalities | Diseases existing at birth and often before birth, regardless of causation. Of these congenital diseases, those characterised by structural deformities are termed abnormalities. (12 Dec 1998) |
| nervous system abnormalities | Congenital structural abnormalities of the nervous system. (12 Dec 1998) |
| stomatognathic system abnormalities | Congenital structural abnormalities of the mouth and jaws, including the dentition. (12 Dec 1998) |
| digestive system abnormalities | Congenital structural abnormalities of the digestive system. (12 Dec 1998) |
| tooth abnormalities | Congenital absence of or defects in structures of the teeth. (12 Dec 1998) |
| jaw abnormalities | Congenital absence of or defects in structures of the jaw. (12 Dec 1998) |
| eye abnormalities | Congenital absence of or defects in structures of the eye; may also be hereditary. (12 Dec 1998) |
| urogenital abnormalities | Congenital structural abnormalities of the urogenital system. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antihemophilic plasma | Human plasma in which the labile antihemophilic globulin component, present in fresh plasma, has been preserved; it is used to temporarily relieve dysfunction of the haemostatic mechanism in haemophilia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| apical plasma membrane | <cell biology> The term used for the cell membrane on the apical (inner or upper) surface of transporting epithelial cells. This region of the cell membrane is separated, in vertebrates, from the baso lateral membrane by a ring of tight junctions that prevents free mixing of membrane proteins from these two domains. (18 Nov 1997) |
| basolateral plasma membrane | <cell biology> The plasma membrane of epithelial cells that is adjacent to the basal lamina or the adjoining cells of the sheet. Differs both in protein and phospholipid composition from the apical plasma membrane from which it is isolated by tight junctions (zonula occludentes). (18 Nov 1997) |
| beam-plasma reaction | <radiobiology> Fusion reaction which occurs from the collision of a fast beam ion with a thermal plasma ion. (09 Oct 1997) |
| bean-shaped plasma | <radiobiology> A toroidal plasma indented on the inboard side (the side with the donut hole), that results in additional stability to ballooning modes. Moderate indentation may provide access to the second-stability region (high beta). (13 Nov 1997) |
