|---|---|
| sexual perversion | A sexual practice that is biologically atypical, considered morally wrong, or legally prohibited. See: bestiality, pedophilia. Synonym: sexual perversion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sexual potency | The ability to carry out and consummate sexual intercourse, usually referring to the male. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sexual preference | The biologic sex preferred in one's sexual partners. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sexual reproduction | The process where two cells (gametes) fuse to form one hybrid, fertilizedcell, results in a new genome that is different than that of either parent. (09 Oct 1997) |
| sexual selection | A form of natural selection in which, according to Darwin's theory, the male or female is attracted by certain characteristics, form, colour, behaviour, etc., in the opposite sex; thus modifications of a special nature are brought about in the species. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sterilization, sexual | Procedures for the purpose of rendering individuals incapable of reproduction. (12 Dec 1998) |
| alveolar bone loss | The resorption of bone in the supporting structures of the maxilla or mandible as a result of periodontal disease. (12 Dec 1998) |
| axon loss polyneuropathy | A type of polyneuropathy in which axon degeneration is the sole/predominant feature; many aetiologies, particularly toxic and metabolic; on nerve conduction studies, affects amplitudes of the responses, but does not cause conduction slowing or block. Synonym: axonal polyneuropathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| blood loss, surgical | Loss of blood during surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Parallel Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy | <technique> Electron energy loss spectroscopy analyses the inelastically scattered electrons present in the beam after it has been transmitted through the sample. An electron energy loss spectrum typically consists of a monatomic decreasing background on which are superimposed a number of peaks. Each peak is characteristic of the scattering process that has occurred in the sample. The peaks can be used to obtain information about the chemical composition and electronic structure of the sample. Electron energy loss spectra are acquired typically in a magnetic sector spectrometer located under the camera chamber of the transmission electron microscope. Spatial resolution is typically limited by the minimum probe diameter of the microscope. Electron energy loss spectroscopy tends to be complimentary to EDS in that it can be used to analyse very thin samples of low Z materials. Acronym: PEELS (05 Aug 1998) |
| periodontal attachment loss | Loss or destruction of periodontal tissue caused by periodontitis or other destructive periodontal diseases or by injury during instrumentation. Attachment refers to the periodontal ligament which attaches to the alveolar bone. It has been hypothesised that treatment of the underlying periodontal disease and the seeding of periodontal ligament cells enable the creating of new attachment. (12 Dec 1998) |
| water loss, insensible | Loss of water by diffusion through the skin and by evaporation from the respiratory tract. It is so called because we do not know that we are actually losing water at the time that it is leaving the body. (guyton, textbook of medical physiology, 8th ed, p274) (12 Dec 1998) |
| weight loss | Decrease in existing body weight. (12 Dec 1998) |
| conductive hearing loss | <otolaryngology> A form of deafness that results from a blockage of the ear canal or dysfunction of the ossicles or eardrum (sound collecting apparatus). In conductive hearing loss the auditory nerve is normal, but there exists a physical problem with the sound collecting apparatus. (05 Jan 1998) |
