| compression syndrome | Trauma and ischemia of soft tissues, principally skeletal muscle, due to prolonged severe crushing of the tissues, leading to increased permeability of the cell membrane and to the release of potassium, enzymes, and myoglobin from within cells. Ischemic renal dysfunction secondary to hypotension and diminished renal perfusion results in acute tubular necrosis and uraemia. (12 Dec 1998) |

| compression thrombosis | Thrombosis due to arrest of the circulation in a vessel by compression, as from a tumour. (05 Mar 2000) |
| compression wave | <radiobiology> Waves where the quantity which oscillates is the density of the medium, that is the medium at a given point alternately compresses and expands. Low-amplitude compression waves in air or water are commonly known as sound waves, shock waves are a high-amplitude form. Synonym: density wave. (13 Jan 1998) |
| heat of compression | Heat produced when a gas is compressed. (05 Mar 2000) |
| spinal cord compression | A condition in which pressure is exerted on the spinal cord, as by a tumour, spinal fracture, etc. Its manifestations, which vary with location and degree of pressure, may include pain, paresthesias, and sensory and motor disturbances. (12 Dec 1998) |
| nerve compression syndromes | Repeated or prolonged pressure on a nerve root or peripheral nerve leading to ischemia, the response to which is oedema above and below the source of pressure. If the pressure is not relieved, fibrosis tends to develop. Types of nerve compression syndromes are the neuropathy caused by intervertebral disk herniation, compression of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel, compression of the ulnar nerve in the elbow, and compression of the lateral cutaneous nerve of the thigh in meralgia paresthetica. This is also called pressure neuropathy. (12 Dec 1998) |
| eyeball compression reflex | Slowing of the heart rate due to the vagal effects of compressing an eyeball. Synonym: eyeball compression reflex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ulnar nerve compression syndrome | <syndrome> A condition caused by compression or entrapment of the ulnar nerve. It may involve both sensory and motor problems and most often results from compression or entrapment of the ulnar nerve at the elbow (cubital tunnel syndrome). Compression of the nerve may occur during normal activities or as a complication of general anaesthesia. (12 Dec 1998) |
| analytic study | In epidemiology, a study designed to examine associations, commonly putative or hypothesised causal relationships; usually concerned with identifying or measuring the effects of risk factors or with the health effects of specific exposures. (05 Mar 2000) |
| blinded study | Clinical trials of drugs are often done blinded so that the patient does not know (is blinded as to) whether they are receiving the product being tested or the control/placebo to ensure that the results of a study are not affected by a possible placebo effect (by the power of suggestion). (12 Dec 1998) |
| blind study | A study in which the experimenter is unaware of which group is subject to which procedure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| case-control study | <epidemiology> A study in which the risk factors of people with a disease are compared with those without a disease. It is an epidemiological method that begins by identifying persons with the disease or condition of interest (the cases) and compares their past history of exposure to identified or suspected risk factors with the past history of similar exposures among persons who resemble the cases but do not have the disease or condition of interest (the controls). The relationship of an attribute to the disease can therefore be examined by comparing affected and non-affected individuals with regard to the frequency or levels of the attribute in each group. (05 May 2002) |
| retrospective study | <epidemiology> A study in which people are enrolled and then have their history of risks, infections or disease measured. (05 Dec 1998) |
| rosenzweig picture-frustration study | A projective test depicting cartoon-like characters in frustrating situations. The scoring of the subject's responses indicates the direction of hostility or aggression, that is, whether he blames himself, the other person, or the set of circumstances. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cohort study | A study using epidemiological methods, such as a clinical trial, in which a cohort with a particular attribute (e.g., smokers, recipients of a drug) is followed prospectively and compared for some outcome (e.g., disease, cure) with another cohort not possessing the attribute.
