| 설명 | 중국 광동 지역에서 가장 먼저 발생한 전염성 호흡기 질환으로 세계보건기구(WHO)에서 ‘중증급성호흡증후군(SARS)'으로 명명했다. 섭씨 38도 이상의 고열과 기침, 호흡곤란, 저산소증, X선상의 폐렴증상 중 하나 이상의 증상이 나타나며, 두통, 근육통, 식욕부진, 피로감, 발진, 설사를 동반할 수 있다. 초기 증상은 감기와 비슷하지만 폐렴으로 발전하면 치명적일 수 있다. 현재 밝혀진 감염경로는 환자가 재채기나 기침할 때 내뿜는 침방울이고, 이것이 다른 사람의 호흡기로 들어갈 때 전염된다. 침방울이 전달되는 거리는 보통 1m로 보고 있다. 공기를 통해 전염이 가능하다는 주장이 제기됐지만 아직 확인되지 않았다. 원인균은 변종 코로나바이러스로 밝혀졌다. |

| ischemic preconditioning, myocardial | Exposure of myocardial tissue to brief, repeated periods of vascular occlusion in order to render the myocardium resistant to the deleterious effects of ischemia or reperfusion. The period of pre-exposure and the number of times the tissue is exposed to ischemia and reperfusion vary, the average being 3 to 5 minutes. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| transient ischemic attack | A sudden focal loss of neurological function with complete recovery usually within 24 hours; caused by a brief period of inadequate perfusion in a portion of the territory of the carotid or vertebral basilar arteries. (05 Mar 2000) |
| asymmetric motor neuropathy | Neuropathy in which the loss of function is more marked in the extremities of one side of the body, old term for diabetic polyradiculopathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| autonomic neuropathy | <neurology, pathology> A group of symptoms which is caused by damage to the nerves which supply the internal organs. May be associated with diabetes, alcohol abuse, trauma (nerve injury) and the use of anticholinergic medications. Symptoms include abdominal swelling, heat intolerance, nausea, vomiting, impotence, diarrhoea, constipation, dizziness with standing, difficulty urinating and urinary incontinence. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (27 Sep 1997) |
| axillary neuropathy | <neurology, pathology> A condition involving dysfunction of the axillary nerve which normally supplies the deltoid and teres minor muscles and sensation to the lateral aspect of the shoulder. This condition is a type of peripheral neuropathy that may manifest as the result of a variety of disease processes or injuries. Conditions associated with axillary nerve dysfunction include mononeuritis multiplex, fracture of the humerus, abduction injury to the shoulder, pressure to the armpit from a cast, splint or crutches. Symptoms include numbness over the outer portion of the shoulder, shoulder weakness and difficulty lifting arm or objects over your head. An EMG, nerve conduction study or muscle biopsy can be helpful in making the diagnosis. Recovery is generally spontaneous if the underlying cause can be corrected and shoulder mobility is preserved. Corticosteroid injections may be indicated in some instances. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (27 Sep 1997) |
| giant axonal neuropathy | <paediatrics> A rare disorder beginning at or after the third year of life, and presenting clinically with kinky hair, progressive painless clumsiness, muscle weakness and atrophy, sensory loss, and areflexia. Pathologically, both myelinated and unmyelinated nerve fibres contain axonal spheroids packed with neurofilaments; sporadic in nature. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vitamin B12 neuropathy | A subacute or chronic disorder of the spinal cord, such as that occurring in certain patients with vitamin B12 deficiency, characterised by a slight to moderate degree of gliosis in association with spongiform degeneration of the posterior and lateral columns. Synonym: combined sclerosis, combined system disease, funicular myelitis, Putnam-Dana syndrome, vitamin B12 neuropathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Graves' optic neuropathy | Visual dysfunction due to optic nerve compression in Graves' orbitopathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peripheral neuropathy | <neurology> Injury to the nerves that supply sensation to the arms and legs. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (16 Dec 1997) |
| chronic interstitial hypertrophic neuropathy | dejerine-Sottas disease |
| motor dapsone neuropathy | A peripheral neuropathy due to ingestion of 4,4-deaminodiphenylsulphone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| compression neuropathy | A focal nerve lesion produced when sustained pressure is applied to a localised portion of the nerve, either from an external or internal source; the main source of injury is the pressure differential that exists between one portion of the nerve and another. (05 Mar 2000) |
| heavy metal neuropathy | Peripheral nervous system disorders attributed to intoxication of one of the heavy metals: arsenic, gold, lead, mercury, platinum and thallium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hereditary hypertrophic neuropathy | dejerine-Sottas disease |
| hereditary sensory radicular neuropathy | Neuropathy characterised by the occurrence of severe, relapsing foot ulcerations of neuropathic origin, destruction of terminal digits of feet and hands, and a loss of sensation; autosomal dominant inheritance is associated with onset in the second decade or later. (05 Mar 2000) |
