| mixed connective tissue disease | <syndrome> A syndrome with overlapping clinical features of systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma, polymyositis, and Raynaud's phenomenon. The disease is differentially characterised by high serum titres of antibodies to ribonuclease-sensitive extractable (saline soluble) nuclear antigen (nuclear ribonucleoprotein) and a speckled epidermal nuclear staining pattern on direct immunofluorescence. A more modern term for this condition is the undifferentiated connective tissues disease. (22 Sep 2002) |
| mixed dentition | <dentistry> The situation when both deciduous and permanent teeth are present. (08 Jan 1998) |
| mixed discrete-continuous random variable | <statistics> A random variable that may assume some values with probabilities and others with probability densities. For example, in a 35-year-old man with familial polyposis of the colon, the distribution of time until malignant disease occurs consists of a probability that he already has cancer (which would be assigned the waiting time 0), a probability density of developing it in the future and a probability that he will die of some other cause before he develops cancer. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mixed disulfide | <chemistry> Disulfide which is not symmetric on both sides of the -s-s- linkage; e.g., the disulfide formed between coenzyme A and glutathione or between cysteine and coenzyme A or glutathione. Synonym: asymmetric disulfide. (05 Mar 2000) |

| mixed hyperlipaemia | Hyperlipoproteinaemia characterised by increased plasma levels of chylomicrons, VLDL, pre-beta-lipoproteins, and triglycerides, and slight rise of cholesterol on a normal diet, with beta-lipoproteins normal; may be accompanied by bouts of abdominal pain, hepatosplenomegaly, susceptibility to atherosclerosis, and abnormal glucose tolerance; probably autosomal recessive inheritance. Synonym: combined fat-and carbohydrate-induced hyperlipaemia, familial hyperchylomicronaemia with hyperprebetalipoproteinaemia, mixed hyperlipaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mixed hyperlipidemia | mixed hyperlipoproteinaemia familial, type 5 hyperlipidemia |
| mixed hyperlipoproteinaemia familial | Type 5 hyperlipidemia, elevations of VLDL and chylomicrons found in plasma. Synonym: mixed hyperlipidemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mixed hypoglycaemia | Hypoglycaemia due to more than one cause. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mixed infection | Infection by more than one variety of pathogenic microorganisms. (05 Mar 2000) |
