| 설명 | 혈압이란 혈관에 걸리는 압력을 말하는 것으로 대개 특별한 설명이 없으면 동맥의 압력을 말한다. 혈압에는 수축기혈압(systolic blood pressure)과 이완기혈압(diastolic blood pressure)이 있다. 수축기혈압이란 심장이 수축할 경우에 동맥에 걸리는 압력을 말하고, 이완기 혈압이란 심장이 이완할 경우에 동맥에 걸리는 압력을 말한다. 당연히 수축기 혈압이 이완기 혈압보다 높다. 혈압을 말할 때에 예를 들어 120/80mmHg이라고 적는 것의 앞의 것은 수축기 혈압을 의미하고 뒤에 적는 80은 이완기 혈압을 의미한다. |

| jugular ganglion | <anatomy, nerve> The upper and smaller of two ganglia on the glossopharyngeal nerve as it traverses the jugular foramen. Synonym: ganglion superius nervi glossopharyngei, Ehrenritter's ganglion, intracranial ganglion, jugular ganglion. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| jugular gland | A firm supraclavicular lymph node, especially on the left side, sufficiently enlarged that it is palpable from the cutaneous surface; such a lymph node is so termed because it may be the first recognised presumptive evidence of a malignant neoplasm in one of the viscera. A signal node that is known to contain a metastasis from a malignant neoplasm is sometimes designated by an old eponym, Troisier's ganglion. Synonym: jugular gland, Virchow's node. (05 Mar 2000) |
| jugular glomus | A microscopic collection of chemoreceptor tissue in the adventitia of the jugular bulb; a tumour of this glomus may cause paralysis of the vocal cords, attacks of dizziness, blackouts, and nystagmus. Synonym: glomus jugulare. (05 Mar 2000) |
| jugular lymphatic trunk | Lymphatic vessel on each side, conveying the lymph from the head and neck; that on the right side empties into the right lymphatic duct, that on the left into the thoracic duct. Synonym: truncus jugularis, jugular duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| jugular nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A communicating branch between the superior cervical ganglion of the sympathetic nerve, the superior ganglion of the vagus nerve, and the inferior ganglion of the glossopharyngeal nerve. Synonym: nervus jugularis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| jugular notch of occipital bone | The notch in the occipital bone which forms one boundary of the jugular foramen. Synonym: incisura jugularis ossis occipitalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| jugular notch of temporal bone | The notch in the temporal bone which forms one boundary of the jugular foramen. Synonym: incisura jugularis ossis temporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| jugular plexus | A lymphatic plexus which includes the deep cervical group of lymph nodes, with their afferent and efferent vessels, extending along the internal jugular vein. (carotid sheath). Synonym: plexus jugularis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| jugular process | A short process jutting out from the posterior part of the condyle of the occipital bone, its anterior border forming the posterior boundary of the jugular foramen. Synonym: processus jugularis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| jugular pulse | The venous pulse as observed in the jugular veins of the neck, usually the deep jugular veins. (05 Mar 2000) |
| jugular tubercle | An oval elevation on the cerebral surface of the lateral part of the occipital bone, on either side of the foramen magnum above the hypoglossal canal. Synonym: tuberculum jugulare. (05 Mar 2000) |
| jugular veins | Veins in the neck which drain the brain, face, and neck into the brachiocephalic or subclavian veins. (12 Dec 1998) |
| jugular wall of middle ear | The floor of the tympanic cavity; a thin plate of bone separating the tympanic cavity from the jugular fossa. Synonym: paries jugularis cavi tympani, fundus tympani, inferior wall of tympanic cavity, jugular wall of middle ear. (05 Mar 2000) |
| external jugular vein | <anatomy, vein> Superficial vein formed inferior to the parotid gland by the junction of the posterior auricular vein and the retromandibular vein, and passes down the side of the neck crossing to the sternocleidomastoid muscle vertically to empty into the subclavian vein. Synonym: vena jugularis externa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral jugular lymph nodes | Nodes of the lateral deep cervical group lying lateral to the internal jugular vein; they usually empty into the jugular trunk. Synonym: nodi lymphatici jugulares laterales. (05 Mar 2000) |
