|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 재생불량성 빈혈이란 골수의 이상으로 생기는 빈혈이다. 골수란 뼈속에 존재하는 것으로 혈구를 생성하는 세포들과 미성숙한 혈구들로 이루어져 있다. 이것들이 여러 가지 원인에 의해서 파괴되었을 때 생기는 빈혈을 재생불량빈혈이라고 한다. 그러므로 적혈구만의 감소가 아니라 모든 혈구 세포의 감소를 볼 수 있다. 치료로는 혈구 생성을 자극하는 호르몬을 투여하는 것이 있지만 이것으로는 파괴된 혈구를 생성하는 세포의 재생이 일어나지 못하므로 완전한 치료라고는 볼 수가 없다. 완전한 치료로는 남의 골수를 채취해서 이것에서부터 혈구를 생성하는 세포를 분리, 환자에게 이식하는 골수이식이 있다. |

| 영문 | iron deficiency anemia | 한글 | 철결핍빈혈 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 적혈구의 기능은 산소를 운반하는데 있다. 적혈구 속에 산소와 결합을 하여 산소를 운반하는 혈색소라는 물질이 있다. 철은 이 혈색소의 중요한 부분을 이루는 것으로 철이 없으면 혈색소가 만들어질 수가 없다. 혈색소가 없으면 역시 적혈구도 만들어지지 않으므로 체내에 철이 부족하면 빈혈이 생긴다. 이 철결핍성 빈혈은 빈혈의 원인 중에서 가장 흔한 것이다(약 25%를 차지한다). 철저장량의 저하-결핍, 혈청철농도의 저하, 트란스페린량 상승, 트란스페린포화도의 저하, 혈색소농도 또는 헤마토크리트의 저하, 저색소성대적혈구를 특징으로 하는 빈혈로서, 생체 내에서 철이 장기에 걸쳐 결핍되며 그 때문에 혈색소 생산 감소에 의해 일어난다. 창자에서의 철흡수량 부족, 철의 수요 증대(유아기, 사춘기, 임신), 철소실과잉(출혈)에 의해 일어나며, 특히 사춘기에서 폐경기까지의 여성에게 많다. 증상으로서는 얼굴창백, 피로감, 피부창백, 손톱 변화(스푼 모양) 등을 나타낸다. 구강 영역에서는 혀의 접촉통, 발적, 건조감, 삼킴곤란을 수반하면 플러머-빈슨(Plummer-Vinson)증후군이라고 한다. 혈액 소견은 혈청철은 저하하며, 철결합능력의 상승, 저색소성 작은적혈구성을 나타낸다. |

| spot test for infectious mononucleosis | A slide test widely used for the diagnosis of infectious mononucleosis, based on the principle that the heterophil antibodies that occur in the serum of patients with infectious mononucleosis are absorbed by beef red cells but not by guinea pig kidney cells; thus, when horse red cells (which provoke heterophil antibodies) are mixed with patient serum and agglutination occurs in the presence of beef red cells, the presumptive diagnosis is infectious mononucleosis.

| necrotic infectious conjunctivitis | A unilateral, suppurative, necrotic inflammation of the conjunctiva characterised by scattered, elevated white spots in the fornices and palpebral conjunctiva, and ipsilateral swelling of preauricular, parotid, and submaxillary lymph glands. Synonym: Pascheff's conjunctivitis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| infectious | 1. Capable of being transmitted by infection, with or without actual contact. Synonym: infective. 3. Denoting a disease due to the action of a microorganism. (05 Mar 2000) |
| infectious anaemia | Anaemia developing as a complication of infection; probably results from depressed formation and short survival of erythrocytes and abnormal iron metabolism. (05 Mar 2000) |
| infectious anaemia virus, equine | A species of lentivirus, subgenus equine lentiviruses (lentiviruses, equine), causing acute and chronic infection in horses. It is transmitted mechanically by biting flies, mosquitoes, and midges, and iatrogenically through unsterilised equipment. Chronic infection often consists of acute episodes with remissions. (12 Dec 1998) |
| infectious avian bronchitis | A specific infectious disease of young birds, caused by infectious bronchitis virus, a member of Coronaviridae, and associated with blocking of respiratory passages by exudate; it is highly transmissible, and often causes heavy losses of young chicks and heavy production losses among older laying birds. Synonym: gasping disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| infectious bovine keratitis | A highly contagious keratoconjunctivitis that occurs in range or pastured cattle during the summer months, is transmitted most commonly by contact with infectious discharges, and is caused by Moraxella bovis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis | A disease of cattle caused by the bacterium Moraxella bovis and characterised by blepharospasm, conjunctivitis, lacrimation, and corneal opacity and ulceration. Synonym: infectious ophthalmia, pinkeye. (05 Mar 2000) |
| infectious bovine rhinotracheitis | A herpes virus infection of cattle characterised by inflammation and necrosis of the mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract. (12 Dec 1998) |
| infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus | A herpesvirus causing infectious bovine rhinotracheitis. Synonym: IBR virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| infectious bronchitis virus | An RNA virus of the family Coronaviridae and the type species of the genus Coronavirus, causing infectious avian bronchitis, being most pathogenic in chicks up to about 4 weeks of age; not to be confused with avian infectious laryngotracheitis virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| infectious bronchitis virus, avian | A species of coronavirus causing infections in chickens and possibly pheasants. Chicks up to 4 weeks old are the most severely affected. (12 Dec 1998) |
