| immunological memory | <immunology> The systems responsible for the situation where reactions to a second or subsequent exposure to an antigen are more extensive than those seen on first exposure (but See immunological tolerance. The memory is best explained by clonal expansion and persistence of such clones following the first exposure to antigen. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| immunologic memory | <immunology> The ability to rapidly produce large quantities of specific immune cells after subsequent exposure to a previously encountered antigen. (09 Oct 1997) |
| temporary memory | <psychology> Temporary storage of information for a few seconds to hours, as opposed to long-term memory which refers to material stored for days, years, or a lifetime. (12 Dec 1998) |
| long-term memory | That phase of the memory process considered the permanent storehouse of information which has been registered, encoded, passed into the short-term memory, coded, rehearsed, and finally transferred and stored for future retrieval; material and information retained in LTM underlies cognitive abilities. (05 Mar 2000) |
| afferent loop syndrome | <syndrome> A complication of gastrojejunostomy, caused by acute or chronic obstruction of the afferent loop due to hernia, intussusception, kinking, volvulus, etc. It is characterised by pain and vomiting of bile-stained fluid and includes acute afferent loop obstruction and bilious vomiting. (12 Dec 1998) |
| arch-loop-whorl system | See: Galton's system of classification of fingerprints. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Biebl loop | A continuous loop of small intestine brought through the abdominal wall to a subcutaneous location, for observation of motility. (05 Mar 2000) |
| blind loop syndrome | <syndrome> Malabsorption, especially of vitamin b12 or folic acid, due to metabolic competition by bacteria proliferating in a segment of small intestine excluded from normal peristaltic movement; it may occur as a postoperative complication of side-to-side anastomosis of intestine, as a result of intestinal diverticula, fistula, etc. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bulboventricular loop | The portion of the early-somite embryonic cardiac tube that evolves into the ventricle and bulbus cordis. Synonym: ventricular loop. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gamma loop | The reflex arc consisting of small anterior horn cells and neuroma, their small fibres projecting to the intrafusal bundle producing its contraction, which initiates the afferent impulses that pass through the posterior root to the anterior horn cells, inducing a stretch reflex. Synonym: gamma motor neurons, gamma motor system, Granit's loop. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vector loop | <physiology> An irregular, usually elliptical, curve representing the average direction and magnitude of the heart's action from moment to moment throughout the cardiac cycle. See: vector, vectorcardiogram. (06 Mar 2000) |
| gastrojejunal loop obstruction syndrome | <syndrome> A complication of gastrojejunostomy, caused by acute or chronic obstruction of the afferent loop due to hernia, intussusception, kinking, volvulus, etc. It is characterised by pain and vomiting of bile-stained fluid and includes acute afferent loop obstruction and bilious vomiting. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ventricular loop | The portion of the early-somite embryonic cardiac tube that evolves into the ventricle and bulbus cordis. Synonym: ventricular loop. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Gerdy's interatrial loop | <cardiology, embryology> A muscular fasciculus in the interatrial septum of the heart, passing backward from the atrioventricular groove. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Vieussens' loop | A nerve cord connecting the middle cervical and stellate sympathetic ganglia, forming a loop around the subclavian artery. Synonym: subclavian loop, Vieussens' ansa, Vieussens' loop. (05 Mar 2000) |
