| 설명 | 신체를 싸고 있는 바깥층으로서 표피, 진피, 피하조직으로 구성되며, 외부 환경으로부터 신체를 보호하고 체온을 조절하는 기능을 가짐. 1.표피: 피부의 가장 바깥층으로서 외배엽에서 기원하며 각질이라는 구조 단백질을 생산하는 기능을 가짐. 4가지의 세포가 있는데, 각질세포, 멜라닌세포, Langerhans 세포, 부정형 세포, Merkel세포가 있다. 표피에는 이 4가지 세포외에 다음과 같은 표피 부속기가 있다. 에크린 땀샘(eccrine sweat gland): 점막 피부 경계 부위 등 특수한 부위를 제외한 모든 피부에서 발견되며 땀을 분비하는 샘으로서 신체 열 조절 체계의 중요한 요소. 아포크린샘(apocrine gland): 겨드랑이, 젖꽃판, 항문 생식기 부위, 외이도, 눈꺼풀 등에서만 발견되며 분비물의 기능은 잘 알려져 있지 않으나 동물에서는 방어 및 성적 기능이 있음. 털주머니(hair follicle): 손바닥, 발바닥 등 특수 부위를 제외한 신체 전 부위에 분포하며 인간에서 중요한 생리적 기능은 없으나 성적 매력을 지니는 신체 장식의 기능을 가짐. 기름샘(sebaceous gland): 손바닥과 발바닥을 제외한 전 피부에 분포하며 분비물을 기름(sebum)라 부름. 남성 호르몬의 자극에 의해 성장하며 생리적 기능은 잘 알려져 있지 않음. 손발톱(nail) 2. 진피: 표피 아래에 존재하는 중배엽 기원의 조직으로서 혈관, 림프관, 신경, 근육, 표피 부속기 등을 포함하고 있음. 표피 바로 밑의 부위를 유두 진피라 하고 아래층을 망상 진피라 한다. 조직 섬유에는 아교질 섬유, 그물 섬유, 탄력 섬유의 세 종류가 있다. 3. 피하 조직: 진피 아래에 존재하며 중배엽 기원으로서 보온 작용, 충격 흡수 작용, 영양 저장 작용의 기능이 있다. |

| chronic symptomatic HIV infection | This refers to an HIV infection that is characterised by signs and symptoms of HIV that are not life-threatening. Examples include oral thrush, gingivitis, seborrheic dermatitis, molluscum contangiosum, fevers, fatigue, lymph node swelling, malaise and weight loss. This stage can be a signal for the conversion from asymptomatic HIV disease to HIV disease (moe pronouced symptoms include joint pains). AIDS is diagnosed after HIV disease has started to manifest life-threatening oppotunistic infections (for example pneumocystis, cryptosporidium, toxoplasmosis, etc). (27 Sep 1997) |
| close contact infection | <epidemiology> An infection which requires close contact, other than sexual contact, between susceptible and infectious individuals, for transmission. (05 Dec 1998) |
| mixed infection | Infection by more than one variety of pathogenic microorganisms. (05 Mar 2000) |
| whipworm infection | <gastroenterology> An infection of the large intestine by Trichuris trichiura. It may be the most common helminthic infection found in Americans returning from subtropical and tropical areas. Children and the mentally retarded have the highest rate of infection due to a general lack of sanitary habits. The worms are 30-50 mm in length and attach themselves to the mucosa of the large intestine. Adult worms may live 4-8 years. Treatment is with mebendazole. (27 Sep 1997) |
| multi-infection | Mixed infection with two or more varieties of microorganisms developing simultaneously. (05 Mar 2000) |
| congenital infection: torchs syndrome | <radiology> T Toxoplasma, R Rubella, C Cytomegalic inclusion disease (CID, CMV), H Herpes, S Syphilis, transplacentally acquired, congenital infection, celery-stalk metaphyses, especially long bones, intracranial calcification, decreased growth, vascular stenosis (aorta, pulmonary artery) (12 Dec 1998) |
| multiple infection | <epidemiology> An infection in which an individual is infected by parasites of more than one species. (05 Dec 1998) |
| wound infection | Invasion of the site of trauma by pathogenic microorganisms. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mycobacterium avium-intracellulare infection | Nontuberculous infection occurring in humans. This condition is frequently associated with pulmonary disease and recently recognised as an opportunistic infection in aids patients. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cross infection | <microbiology> Infection transmitted between individuals infected with different pathogenic microorganisms. Any infection which a patient contracts in a health-care institution. (12 Dec 1998) |

| pregnancy danger from urinary tract infection | A pregnant woman who develops a uti should be treated promptly to avoid premature delivery of her baby and other risks such as high blood pressure.
