| non-specific system | <physiology> A physiological term denoting that part of the brainstem reticular formation that plays a central role in the organism's bodily and behavorial alertness. It extends as a diffusely organised neural apparatus through the central region of the brainstem into the subthalamus and the intralaminar nuclei of the thalamus; by its ascending connections it affects the function of the cerebral cortex in the sense of behavioural responsiveness; its descending (reticulospinal) connections transmit its activating influence upon bodily posture and reflex mechanisms (e.g., muscle tonus), in part by way of the gamma motor neurons. See: reticular formation. Synonym: non-specific system. (05 Mar 2000) |

| non-steroidal anti-inflammatory | <pharmacology> A large group of anti-inflammatory agents that work by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins.

| lymphoma, non-hodgkin | Any of a group of malignant tumours of lymphoid tissue that differ from hodgkin disease, being more heterogeneous with respect to malignant cell lineage, clinical course, prognosis, and therapy. The only common feature among these tumours is the absence of giant reed-sternberg cells, a characteristic of hodgkin's disease. (12 Dec 1998) |
| non-Hodgkin's lymphoma |

| non-Hodgkin's lymphoma |
A cancer characterized by uncontrolled proliferation of lymphocytes (usually B cells, but sometimes T cells), NHL can cause tumors in lymph nodes or other organs, such as the spleen, bone marrow, gastrointestinal tract, and brain. It is more likely than Hodgkin's lymphoma to cause disease in sites that are distant from one another. There are several grades of NHL. Treatment is with chemotherapy, radiation, or bone-marrow transplant.

| non-Hodgkin's lymphoma |
a cancer of the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is a network of thin vessels and nodes throughout the body. Its function is to fight infection. What distinguishes non-Hodgkin's lymphoma from Hodgkin's lymphoma is the absence of a type of cell called the Reed-Sternberg cell. This cell is present only in Hodgkin's lymphoma. The treatment methods for Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas are very different.
