| gonadal disorders | Disease of the ovaries and testes of any aetiology. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| gonadal dose | The exposure dose to the male or female gonad, usually from incidental secondary radiation in diagnostic or therapeutic irradiation, or from whole-body irradiation. Synonym: gonadal dose. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gonadal hormones | Hormones having oestrogenic (female sex hormones) or androgenic (male sex hormones) activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gonadal ridge | An elevation of thickened mesothelium and underlying mesenchyme on the ventromedial border of the embryonic mesonephros; the primordial germ cells become embedded in it, establishing it as the primordium of the testis or ovary. Synonym: genital ridge. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gonadal steroid-binding globulin | A protein that transports 65% of the testosterone in plasma. Synonym: sex steroid-binding globulin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gonadal streak | A form of aplasia in which the ovary is replaced by a functionless tissue, as found in Turner's syndrome. Synonym: streak gonad. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sex reversal, gonadal | Change from one sex to another with regard to gonadal development; may be induced or occurs naturally in some invertebrates. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasms, gonadal tissue | Neoplasms composed of ovarian or testicular tissue. This concept does not refer to neoplasms located in the ovaries or testes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| acoustic trauma deafness | Sensorineural hearing loss due to overexposure to high intensity noise levels. Synonym: boilermaker's deafness, industrial deafness, occupational deafness. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Alexander's deafness | High frequency deafness due to membranous cochlear dysplasia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| boilermaker's deafness | Sensorineural hearing loss due to overexposure to high intensity noise levels. Synonym: boilermaker's deafness, industrial deafness, occupational deafness. (05 Mar 2000) |
| central deafness | Deafness due to disorder of the auditory system of the brainstem or cerebral cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| retrocochlear deafness | Former term for sensorineural deafness; suggesting a lesion proximal to the cochlea. (05 Mar 2000) |
| perceptive deafness | Former term for sensorineural deafness. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Mondini deafness | The hearing loss resulting from the structural aberration of Mondini dysplasia. (05 Mar 2000) |
