| 영문 | dose | 한글 | 용량, 투여량, 방사선량 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 1. 약제를 한 번 또는 하루에 사용하거나 복용하는 분량. 2. 물질이나 조직에 대한 방사선의 작용 정도를 나타내는 양. 즉, 방사선량이라는 개념은 어떤 한 점에 입사하는 방사선과 그 점 근처에 있는 물질에 대한 방사선의 물리적-화학적-생물학적 효과와의 관게를 정량적으로 나타내는 공통인 척도로서 생각된 것이다. 라드(rad)로 나타내는 흡수량, 렌트겐(R)으로 나타내는 조사 선량, 렘(rem)으로 나타내는 선량 당량으로 구분하여 쓴다. |

|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 1. 피부표면에서의 방사선의 공중선량으로 여기에는 1차방사선과 후방산란이 포함된다. 2. 피부에 흡수되는 선량. |

| self tolerance | The normal lack of the ability to produce an immunological response to autologous (self) antigens. A breakdown of self tolerance leads to autoimmune diseases. The ability to recognise the difference between self and non-self is the prime function of the immune system. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| species tolerance | The insensitivity to a particular drug exhibited by a particular species. (05 Mar 2000) |
| split tolerance | Modification of an immune response to an antigen after prior exposure to that antigen. Synonym: split tolerance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nonresponder tolerance | Lack of immune response to antigen. Theories of tolerance induction include clonal deletion and clonal anergy. In clonal deletion, the actual clone of cells is eliminated whereas in clonal anergy the cells are present but nonfunctional. Synonym: immunological tolerance, immunotolerance, nonresponder tolerance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| drug tolerance | Progressive diminution of the susceptibility of a human or animal to the effects of a drug, resulting from its continued administration. It should be differentiated from drug resistance wherein a human, animal, disease, or tissue fails to respond to the intended effectiveness of a chemical or drug. (12 Dec 1998) |
| immune tolerance | The specific failure of a normally responsive individual to make an immune response to a known antigen. It results from previous contact with the antigen by an immunologically immature individual (foetus or neonate) or by an adult exposed to extreme high-dose or low-dose antigen, or by exposure to radiation, antimetabolites, antilymphocytic serum, etc. (12 Dec 1998) |
| immunological tolerance | <immunology> Specific unresponsiveness to antigen. Self tolerance is a process occurring normally early in life due to suppression of self reactive lymphocyte clones. Tolerance to foreign antigens can be induced in adult life by exposure to antigens under conditions in which specific clones are suppressed. Note that tolerance is not the same as immunological unresponsiveness, since the latter may be very non-specific as in immunodeficiency states. (18 Nov 1997) |
| immunologic tolerance | Lack of immune response to antigen. Theories of tolerance induction include clonal deletion and clonal anergy. In clonal deletion, the actual clone of cells is eliminated whereas in clonal anergy the cells are present but nonfunctional. Synonym: immunological tolerance, immunotolerance, nonresponder tolerance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| impaired glucose tolerance | Blood glucose (sugar) levels higher than normal but not high enough to be called diabetes. People with impaired glucose tolerance may or may not develop diabetes. Other names (no longer used) for impaired glucose tolerance are borderline, subclinical, chemical, or latent diabetes. (30 Mar 1998) |
| individual tolerance | Tolerance to a drug that the person has never received before. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oral lactose tolerance test | A test for lactose deficiency; the plasma glucose response to an oral lactose load is measured as in the (oral) glucose tolerance test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| test, glucose tolerance | After fasting, a specific amount (100 grams) of glucose is given by mouth, and the blood levels of this sugar are measured every hour. Normally, the blood glucose should return to normal within 2 to 2 1/2 hours. The gtt is considered a classic test of carbohydrate metabolism. It is much used in the diagnosis of diabetes. The gtt depends on a number of factors including the ability of the intestine to absorb glucose, the power of the liver to take up and store glucose, the capacity of the pancreas to produce insulin, and the amount of active insulin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| tolerance | 1. The ability to endure unusually large doses of a drug or toxin. 2. Acquired drug tolerance, a decreasing response to repeated constant doses of a drug or the need for increasing doses to maintain a constant response. Origin: L. Tolerantia (18 Nov 1997) |
| exercise tolerance | The exercise capacity of an individual as measured by endurance (maximal exercise duration and/or maximal attained work load) during an exercise test. (12 Dec 1998) |
| frustration tolerance | The level of an individual's ability to withstand frustration without developing inadequate modes of response, such as "going to pieces" emotionally. (05 Mar 2000) |
