|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 일산화탄소의 흡입에 의하여 산화헤모글로빈이 카르복시헤모글로빈으로 변화함으로써 일어나는 중독. 중추신경계장애를 일으키고 죽음에 이르기고 한다. 일산화탄소는 탄소를 함유한 유기물이 불완전연소할 때 발생한다. 따라서 제철, 도시가스 제조, 가정에서 발생하며 자동차 배기가스에도 포함되어 있고 가정에서 연료의 연소에 의해서도 생긴다. 일산화탄소를 흡입하면 폐에서 혈액속의 혈색소와 결합하여 일산화탄소헤모글로빈을 형성하고, 이 때문에 혈액의 산소운반능력이 상실되어 내부적인 질식상태에 빠지게 된다. 일산화탄소와 헤모글로빈과의 친화성은 극히 강하여 산소보다 250배의 세기로 결합한다. 사람에 따라 일산화탄소에 대한 감수성이 다르지만, 공기 속에 0.001%만 들어있어도 중독을 일으킨다. 또 0.06%에서는 1시간만 흡입하면 두통을 일으키고 2시간이면 실신한다. 또 0.1%을 경우는 1시간 이내에 실신하고 4시간이면 사망한다. 중독 증세는 조직의 무산소증에 의한 것으로서, 급성중독은 급격히 사망하는 수도 있지만, 대개는 처음에 두통-현기증-귀울림-구역-구토 등이 있고, 사지의 운동이 불가능하게 되며, 다소의 의식이 남아 있어도 그대로 죽음에 이르게 된다. 타각적으로는 얼굴에 홍조를 띠고 전신에 무늬 모양의 발적이 나타나며, 호흡이 가늘고 불규칙하게 된다. 코를 골고 체온이 내려가고 전신의 근육 이온 등이 보이며, 호흡곤란의 증세가 보이지 않는 중에 호흡이 정지하게 된다. |

| 설명 | 크림이 들어 있는 과자, 커스타드(custards), 치즈와 같은 식품이나, 육류에 황색 포도알균이 생성하는 창자관독이 함유된 것을 섭취하여 일어나는 식중독으로서 갑작스러운 발병, 두통, 침분비, 구역, 구토, 설사, 복부산통 및 땀남을 특징으로 하며, 발작 후 5~6시간 지속한다. |

| rheumatoid arthritis, systemic-onset juvenile | Also known as systemic-onset juvenile chronic arthritis. Still's disease presents with systemic (bodywide) illness including high intermittent fever, a salmon-coloured skin rash, swollen lymph glands, enlargement of the liver and spleen, and inflammation of the lungs (pleuritis) and around the heart (pericarditis). The arthritis may not be immediately apparent but it does appear and may persist after the systemic symptoms are gone. (12 Dec 1998) |

| portal-systemic anastomoses | Naturally-occurring venous communications between tributaries of the portal venous system and tributaries of the systemic venous system. The major portal-systemic anastomoses include: 1) oesophageal branches of left gastric vein with oesophageal veins, 2) superior rectal vein with middle and inferior rectal veins, 3) paraumbilical veins with subcutaneous veins of anterior abdominal wall, 4) retroperitoneal veins with venous branches of veins of the colon and bare area of the liver, and 5) a patent ductus venosus connecting left branch of portal vein to inferior vena cava (rare). These anastomoses are important clinically, providing collateral circulation during portal obstruction or hypertension, at which time they may become varicose. See: caput medusae, oesophageal varices, haemorrhoids. Surgically-created communications between the portal vein and the inferior vena cava or their tributaries, to relieve portal hypertension. Synonym: portacaval anastomoses. (05 Mar 2000) |
| portal-systemic encephalopathy | An encephalopathy associated with cirrhosis of the liver, attributed to the passage of toxic nitrogenous substances from the portal to the systemic circulation; cerebral manifestations may include coma. Synonym: hepatic encephalopathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| scleroderma, systemic | A chronic, progressive dermatosis characterised by boardlike hardening and immobility of the affected skin, with visceral involvement, especially of lungs, oesophagus, kidneys and heart. It may be accompanied by calcinosis, raynaud's phenomenon, and telangiectasis (crest syndrome). It includes acrosclerosis and sclerodactyly. (12 Dec 1998) |
| systemic | <anatomy> Pertaining to or affecting the body as a whole. (18 Nov 1997) |
| systemic anaphylaxis | The immediate response, involving smooth muscles and capillaries throughout the body of a sensitised individual, that follows intravenous (and occasionally intracutaneous) injection of antigen (allergen). See: anaphylactic shock. Synonym: systemic anaphylaxis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| systemic anatomy | Anatomy of the systems of the body; an approach to anatomical study organised by organ systems, e.g., the cardiovascular system, emphasizing an overview of the system throughout the body; distinguished from regional anatomy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| systemic autoimmune diseases | A group of connective tissue disease's characterised by the presence of autoantibodies responsible for immunopathologically mediated tissue lesions; systemic lupus erythematosus is the prototype. (05 Mar 2000) |
| systemic blastomycosis | Infection with Blastomyces dermatitidis extending beyond the skin or the lung, the usual portals of entry; involvement of bone and genitourinary tract (especially. Prostate and epididymis) are most frequent. (05 Mar 2000) |
| systemic chondromalacia | A degenerative disease of cartilage producing a bizarre form of arthritis, with collapse of the ears, the cartilaginous portion of the nose, and the tracheobronchial tree; death may occur from chronic infection or suffocation because of loss of stability in the tracheobronchial tree of autosomal origin. Synonym: chronic atrophic polychondritis, generalised chondromalacia, Meyenburg's disease, Meyenburg-Altherr-Uehlinger syndrome, relapsing perichondritis, systemic chondromalacia, von Meyenburg's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| systemic circulation | The circulation of blood through the arteries, capillaries, and veins of the general system, from the left ventricle to the right atrium. Synonym: greater circulation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| systemic febrile diseases | Generic term for diseases characterised by fever. (05 Mar 2000) |
| systemic heart | The left atrium and ventricle, receiving the aerated blood from the lungs and propelling it throughout the body. (05 Mar 2000) |
| systemic hyalinosis | A rare recessively inherited deforming disorder of head, neck, and generalised cutaneous nodules or tumours in children with normal mentality; the lesions consist of fibroblasts separated by an eosinophilic hyalin stroma composed mostly of glycosaminoglycans. Synonym: systemic hyalinosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| systemic lupus erythematosus | <immunology, nephrology, rheumatology> A disease of humans, probably autoimmune with antinuclear and other antibodies in plasma. Immune complex deposition in the glomerular capillaries is a particular problem. Acronym: SLE (19 Jan 1998) |
