| 설명 | 혈액이 응고되는 것을 방지하는 항응고제를 넣은 혈액을 침강용 유리관에 넣어 가만히 세워 두었을 때 적혈구가 가라앉는 속도를 이르는 말이다. 1918년 스웨덴의 병리학자 파레우스의 창안에 의한 것이다. 측정방법으로 여러 가지가 있는데, 국제표준법으로는 1973년 웨스터그렌법의 1시간법이 선정되었으며, 1977년 그것을 개정하여 각국에서 쓰도록 권장하고 있다. 1시간 후 침강용 유리관 위쪽의 혈장기둥의 높이를 mm로 읽어, 그것을 적혈구침강의 1시간값으로 한다. 만약 혈장과 적혈구의 경계가 선명하지 못한 경우, 적혈구의 밀도가 그 이하에서는 일정하다고 여겨지는 곳의 눈금을 읽어 적혈구침강의 1시간값으로 한다. 측정 때의 실내온도는 18~25도로 한다. 일반적으로 이보다 온도가 높은 경우는 혈침반응이 촉진되며, 낮은 경우는 늦어진다. 정상 값은 2~10mm(남자), 3~15mm(여자)이며 15세 이하의 어린이, 50세 이상의 고령자에서는 약간 높다. |

| maternal cotyledon | A unit of the placenta made up of trophoblastic cells, fibrous tissue, and abundant blood vessels, which is visible grossly on the maternal surface as an irregularly shaped lobe circumscribed by a deep cleft and made up of a stem villus with numerous branching free villi and anchoring villi; placental vessels in the chorionic plate supply the stem villus and its branches, allowing gas and metabolite exchange across the trophoblastic layer with maternal blood in the intervillous space; traditionally called clinicians' cotyledon.

| maternal deprivation | Prolonged separation of the offspring from the mother. (12 Dec 1998) |
| maternal deprivation syndrome | <syndrome> A failure to thrive seen in infants and young children and exhibited as a constellation of physical signs, symptoms, and behaviours, usually associated with maternal loss, absence or neglect, and characterised by lack of responsiveness to the environment and often depression. (05 Mar 2000) |
| maternal dystocia | Dystocia caused by an abnormality or physical problem in the mother. (05 Mar 2000) |
| maternal effect gene | Gene, usually required for early embryonic development, whose product is secreted into the egg by the mother. The phenotype is thus determined by the mother's, rather than the egg's, genotype. Compare:. Zygotic effect gene. See: egg polarity gene. (18 Nov 1997) |
| maternal exposure | Exposure of the female parent, human or animal, to potentially harmful chemical, physical, or biological agents in the environment or to environmental factors that may include ionizing radiation, pathogenic organisms, or toxic chemicals that may affect offspring. It includes pre-conception maternal exposure. (12 Dec 1998) |
| maternal-foetal exchange | Exchange of substances between the maternal blood and the foetal blood through the placental barrier. It excludes microbial or viral transmission. (12 Dec 1998) |
| maternal health services | Organised services to provide health care to expectant and nursing mothers. (12 Dec 1998) |
| maternal immunity | <epidemiology> Immunity for a neonate provided by IgG antibody generated by a mother and passed across the placenta to the unborn offspring. This provides short lived protection (with a typical half life of 3-6 months) to the neonate. Also known as immunity. (05 Dec 1998) |
| maternal inheritance | Inheritance through the maternal cell line, for example through the oocyte and eggs. Mitochondrial genes are maternally inherited and various other nonMendelian forms of inheritance may also appear as maternal inheritance. (18 Nov 1997) |
| maternal mortality | Maternal deaths resulting from complications of pregnancy and childbirth in a given population. (12 Dec 1998) |
| maternal mRNA | <molecular biology> Messenger RNA found in oocytes and early embryos that is derived from the maternal genome during oogenesis. See: masked messenger RNA. (18 Nov 1997) |
| maternal placenta | <anatomy> The part of the placenta derived from the uterine tissue. See: placenta. Synonym: maternal placenta, placenta uterina. (05 Mar 2000) |
| maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein | A plasma protein, alpha-fetoprotein (afp) is normally produced by the foetus. The level of afp in the blood serum of pregnant women provides a screening test for open neural tube defects (anencephaly and spina bifida) and for down syndrome (and other chromosome abnormalities). The maternal serum afp (msafp) tends to be unusally high with open neural tube defects and unsually low with down syndrome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| maternal welfare | Organised efforts by communities or organizations to improve the health and well-being of the mother. (12 Dec 1998) |
