| 영문 | cerebral concussion | 한글 | 뇌진탕 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 외부에서 기원하는 물리적 충격으로 인해 뇌의 물리적 손상없이 일어나는 뇌의 기능 장애. 일시적으로 무의식, 반사소실, 등이 나타나지만 결국은 아무 후유증없이 정상으로 돌아온다. |

| 영문 | cerebral cortex | 한글 | 대뇌겉질 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 대뇌의 표면부위를 대뇌겉질이라고도 한다. 대개 얕은회색질(superficial gray matter)와 동의어로 쓰인다. 회색질이란 대뇌의 표면에 신경세포가 모여있는 곳으로 회색을 띠는 부분을 말한다. 이와는 대조적으로 백색질이란 신경세포가 내는 신경섬유가 분포하는 곳이며 대뇌에서 회색질의 안쪽에 존재한다. 참고로 말하면 척수에서는 대뇌와 반대로 회색질 안쪽에 존재하고 백색질이 밖에 존재한다. 즉 척수에서는 신경세포가 척수의 안쪽에 존재하고 바깥쪽에 그 신경세포가 내는 신경섬유가 존재한다. |

| 영문 | cerebral hemisphere | 한글 | 대뇌반구 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 대뇌란 뇌의 가장 큰 부분을 차지하는 곳으로 사고, 운동, 성격, 기억 등의 고차원적인 기능을 행하는 곳이다. 대뇌는 크게 좌, 우 두 개로 나뉘어져 있고 각각을 좌, 우 대뇌반구라고 한다. |

Synonym: primary gout. Interval gout, an asymptomatic phase between acute attacks of gout. Latent gout, hyperuricaemia without symptoms of gout. Often used synonymously with interval gout.

| idiopathic hypercalcaemic sclerosis of infants | See: idiopathic hypercalcaemia of infants. (05 Mar 2000) |
| idiopathic hyperlipaemia | Hyperlipoproteinaemia characterised by the presence of large amounts of chylomicrons and triglycerides in the plasma when the patient has a normal diet, and their disappearance on a fat-free diet; low alpha-and beta-lipoproteins on a normal diet, with increase on fat-free diet; decreased plasma postheparin lipolytic activity; and low tissue lipoprotein lipase activity. It is accompanied by bouts of abdominal pain, hepatosplenomegaly, pancreatitis, and eruptive xanthomas; autosomal recessive inheritance. See: familial lipoprotein lipase inhibitor.
