| hydrocephalus ex vacuo | Hydrocephalus due to loss or atrophy of brain tissue; less commonly associated with raised intracranial pressure. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| noncommunicating hydrocephalus | Hydrocephalus secondary to a block in cerebrospinal fluid flow in the ventricular system or between the ventricular system and spinal canal. Synonym: noncommunicating hydrocephalus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| normal pressure hydrocephalus | <neurology> A brain disorder caused by blockage of the flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), with enlargement of the ventricles of the brain (keep the pressure normal) and compression of brain tissue. Brain atrophy is the result. In this condition the CSF is produced normally but not reabsorbed. Symptom onset is gradual. A key feature is dementia. Treatment is surgical (VP shunt). (13 Nov 1997) |
| infantile hydrocephalus | <radiology> A VP-Shunt Can Decompress The Hydrocephalic Child, Aqueductal stenosis, Vein of Galen aneurysm, Postinfectious, Superior vena cava obstruction, Chiari malformation, Dandy-Walker syndrome, Tumour, Haemorrhage, Choroid plexus papilloma see: hydrocephalus (12 Dec 1998) |
| internal hydrocephalus | Hydrocephalus in which the accumulation of fluid is confined to the ventricles; also occurs as an autosomal recessive condition in the Hereford and Holstein breeds of cattle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| obstructive hydrocephalus | Hydrocephalus secondary to a block in cerebrospinal fluid flow in the ventricular system or between the ventricular system and spinal canal. Synonym: noncommunicating hydrocephalus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| occult hydrocephalus | <neurology> A brain disorder caused by blockage of the flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), with enlargement of the ventricles of the brain (keep the pressure normal) and compression of brain tissue. Brain atrophy is the result. In this condition the CSF is produced normally but not reabsorbed. Symptom onset is gradual. A key feature is dementia. Treatment is surgical (VP shunt). (13 Nov 1997) |
| otitic hydrocephalus | A form of thrombotic hydrocephalus associated with otitis media and thrombosis of one or both transverse sinuses of the dura. (05 Mar 2000) |
| thrombotic hydrocephalus | Increase in cerebrospinal fluid and of intracranial pressure following thrombosis of the cerebral veins or sinuses; caused by septic infection, dehydration, tuberculosis, typhoid, leukaemia, and other conditions. (05 Mar 2000) |
| toxic hydrocephalus | Thrombotic hydrocephalus associated with some general infection or toxic state. (05 Mar 2000) |
| external hydrocephalus | Accumulation of fluid in the subarachnoid spaces of the brain, accumulation of fluid in the subdural space owing to a persistent communication between the subarachnoid and subdural spaces. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bufadienolides (two double bonds) | Bufatrienolides (three double bonds), etc; they have varying numbers of hydroxyl groups at positions 3, 5, 14, and 16, and these may be further substituted. For structure, see steroids. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bufenolides (one double bond) | (05 Mar 2000) |
| carbon-carbon double bond isomerases | <enzyme> Enzymes that catalyze the shifting of a carbon-carbon double bond from one position to another within the same molecule. Registry number: EC 5.3.3 (12 Dec 1998) |
| RNA, double-stranded | RNA consisting of two strands as opposed to the more prevalent single-stranded RNA. most of the double-stranded segments are formed from transcription of DNA by intramolecular base-pairing of inverted complementary sequences separated by a single-stranded loop. Some double-stranded segments of RNA are normal in all organisms. (12 Dec 1998) |
