| normal human plasma | Sterile plasma obtained by pooling approximately equal amounts of the liquid portion of citrated whole blood from eight or more adult humans who have been certified as free from any disease which is tranmissible by transfusion, and treating it with ultraviolet irradiation to destroy possible bacterial and viral contaminants. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| normal human serum | Sterile serum obtained by pooling approximately equal amounts of the liquid portion of coagulated whole blood from eight or more persons who are free from any disease transmissible by transfusion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| normal human serum albumin | A sterile preparation of serum albumin obtained by fractionating blood plasma proteins from healthy persons; used as a transfusion material and to treat oedema due to hypoproteinaemia. Synonym: dried human albumin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| normal occlusion | That arrangement of teeth and their supporting structure which is usually found in health and which approaches an ideal or standard arrangement. Synonym: normal bite. Synonym: neutral occlusion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| normal opsonin | That normally present in the blood, i.e., without stimulation by a known, specific antigen such as certain complement components; it is relatively thermolabile and reacts with various organisms. Synonym: common opsonin, thermolabile opsonin. Specific opsonin, antibodies formed in response to stimulation by a specific antigen, either as a result of an attack of a disease, or injections with a suitably prepared suspension of the specific microorganism. Synonym: immune opsonin, thermostable opsonin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| normal pressure hydrocephalus | <neurology> A brain disorder caused by blockage of the flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), with enlargement of the ventricles of the brain (keep the pressure normal) and compression of brain tissue. Brain atrophy is the result. In this condition the CSF is produced normally but not reabsorbed. Symptom onset is gradual. A key feature is dementia. Treatment is surgical (VP shunt). (13 Nov 1997) |
| normal range | Normal results can fall outside the normal range. By convention, the normal range is set to cover ninety-five percent (95%) of values from a normal population. Five percent (5%) of normal results therefore fall outside the normal range. (12 Dec 1998) |
| normal serum | A nonimmune serum, usually with reference to a serum obtained prior to immunization. (05 Mar 2000) |
| normal tartrate | Tartrate that contains no uncombined acid groups. (05 Mar 2000) |
| normal toxin | A toxin solution holding exactly 100 lethal doses in 1 ml. (05 Mar 2000) |
| normal values | A set of laboratory test value's used to characterise apparently healthy individuals; now replaced by reference value's. (05 Mar 2000) |
| age distribution | The frequency of different ages or age groups in a given population. The distribution may refer to either how many or what proportion of the group. The population is usually patients with a specific disease but the concept is not restricted to humans and is not restricted to medicine. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Bernoulli distribution | <statistics> The probability distribution associated with two mutually exclusive and exhaustive outcomes, e.g., death or survival. (14 Aug 2000) |
| binomial distribution | The probability distribution associated with two mutually exclusive outcomes; used to model cumulative incidence rates and prevalence rates. The bernoulli distribution is a special case of binomial distribution. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gaussian distribution | Continuous frequency distribution of infinite range. Its properties are as follows: 1) continuous, symmetrical distribution with both tails extending to infinity; 2) arithmetic mean, mode, and median identical; and 3) shape completely determined by the mean and standard deviation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| normal distribution |
A bell-shaped frequency distribution of a variable. The expected distribution if many factors with independent, small effects determine the value of a variable; the basis for many statistical formulations; see Appendix 1.

| normal distribution |
The frequency of a data distribution simulating a bell-shaped curve that is symmetrical around the mean and exhibits an equal chance of a data point being above or below the mean. (syn: Gaussian distribution).

| normal distribution |
The statistical distribution that appears graphically as a symmetric, bell-shaped curve. In animal breeding, the values along the horizontal axis represent the levels of performance, breeding value, etc., that are being examined in a population; the height of the curve at any point represents the relative frequency of that value in the population.
