| depression, major | Major depression is manifested by a combination of symptoms (see Depression, symptoms of) that interfere with the ability to work, sleep, eat, and enjoy once pleasurable activities. These disabling episodes of depression can occur once, twice, or several times in a lifetime. (12 Dec 1998) |

| depression of optic disk | The normally occurring depression or pit in the centre of the optic disc. Synonym: excavatio disci, depression of optic disk, excavatio papillae, physiologic cup, physiologic excavation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| depression, postpartum | Depression in women occurring usually within four weeks after the delivery of a child. The degree of depression ranges from mild transient depression to neurotic or psychotic depressive disorders. (12 Dec 1998) |
| involutional depression | Depression or psychosis first occurring in the involutional years (40 to 55 for women, 50 to 65 for men). (05 Mar 2000) |
| endogenous depression | <psychiatry> A clinical syndrome that includes a persistent sad mood or loss of interest in activities that persists for at least 2 weeks in the absence of external precipitants. This should not be confused with a grief reaction (death of loved one). Features may include change in eating habits, insomnia, early morning wakening, lack of interest, depressed mood, fatigue and suicidal thoughts. (27 Sep 1997) |
| exogenous depression | Similar signs and symptoms as endogenous depression but the precipitating factors are social or environmental and outside the individual. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lingual salivary gland depression | An indentation on the lingual surface of the mandible within which a portion of the submandibular gland lies; it appears radiographically as a sharply circumscribed ovoid radiolucency between the mandibular canal and the inferior border of the posterior mandible. Synonym: Stafne bone cyst, static bone cyst. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basal metabolic rate | <biochemistry, biology> The metabolic rate as measured under basal conditions: 12 hours after eating, after a restful sleep, no exercise or activity preceding test, elimination of emotional excitement and occurring in a comfortable temperature. Acronym: BMR (15 Nov 1997) |
| brain diseases, metabolic | Metabolic disorders which lead to pathological changes and/or functional deviations of the brain. (12 Dec 1998) |
| rate, basal metabolic | A measure of the rate of metabolism. For example, someone with an overly active thyroid will have an elevated basal metabolic rate. (12 Dec 1998) |
| metabolic | 1. <biology> Of or pertaining to metamorphosis; pertaining to, or involving, change. 2. <physiology> Of or pertaining to metabolism; as, metabolic activity; metabolic force. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| metabolic acidosis | <biochemistry> A metabolic derangement of acid-base balance where the blood pH is abnormally low. Causes include haemorrhagic shock, cardiogenic shock, severe dehydration, sepsis, toxic ingestion (for example isopropyl alcohol, methanol), alcoholic ketoacidosis, lactic acidosis, renal failure and diabetic ketoacidosis. Respiratory acidosis will occur if the lungs are not ventilating properly. (27 Jun 1999) |
| metabolic alkalosis | <biochemistry> A metabolic derangement where the pH of the blood is abnormally high (basic). This condition may result from hyperventilation, the use of a particular drug, excessive vomiting or dehydration (contraction alkalosis). (27 Jun 1999) |
| metabolic burst | <biochemistry> Response of phagocytes to particles (particularly if opsonise d) and to agonists such as formyl peptides and phorbol esters, an enhanced uptake of oxygen leads to the production, by an NADH dependent system, of hydrogen peroxide, superoxide anions and hydroxyl radicals, all of which play a part in bactericidal activity. Defects in the metabolic burst, as in chronic granulomatous disease, predispose to infection particularly with catalase positive bacteria and are usually fatal in childhood. (27 Jun 1999) |
| metabolic calculus | A stone, usually a renal stone, caused by a metabolic abnormality resulting in increased excretion of a substance of low solubility in urine, such as urate or cystine. (05 Mar 2000) |
