| NPJT | nonparoxysmal atrioventricular junctional tachycardia |
|---|---|
| PJT | paroxysmal junctional tachycardia |
| RGO | reciprocating gait orthosis |
| SVT | sinoventricular tachycardia; subclavian vein thrombosis; supraventricular tachyarrhythmia; supravent... |
| NIPTS | noise-induced permanent threshold shift |
| dentition, permanent | The 32 teeth of adulthood that either replace or are added to the complement of deciduous teeth. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| atrioventricular junctional bigeminy | Paired beats, each pair consisting of an A-V nodal extrasystole coupled to a beat of the dominant, usually sinus, rhythm. Synonym: nodal bigeminy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| atrioventricular junctional rhythm | The cardiac rhythm when the heart is controlled by the A-V junction (including node); arising in the A-V junction, the impulse ascends to the atria and descends to the ventricles, each at varying speeds depending on site of the pacemaker. Synonym: A-V junctional rhythm, nodal bradycardia, nodal rhythm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| A-V junctional rhythm | The cardiac rhythm when the heart is controlled by the A-V junction (including node); arising in the A-V junction, the impulse ascends to the atria and descends to the ventricles, each at varying speeds depending on site of the pacemaker. Synonym: A-V junctional rhythm, nodal bradycardia, nodal rhythm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| epidermolysis bullosa, junctional | Form of epidermolysis bullosa having onset at birth or during the neonatal period and transmitted through autosomal recessive inheritance. It is characterised by generalised blister formation, extensive denudation, and separation and cleavage of the basal cell plasma membranes from the basement membrane. (12 Dec 1998) |
| junctional basal lamina | <cell biology> Specialised region of the extracellular matrix surrounding a muscle cell, at the neuromuscular junction. May be responsible for localisation of acetylcholine receptors in the synaptic region and also binds acetylcholine esterase to this region (18 Nov 1997) |
| junctional complex | The attachment zone between epithelial cells, typically consisting of the zonula occludens, the zonula adherens, and the macula adherens (desmosome). (05 Mar 2000) |
| junctional cyst | A cyst of the testis arising from the structures connecting the rete testis with the epididymis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| junctional epithelium | A collar of epthelial cells attached to the tooth surface and subepithelial connective tissue found at the base of the gingival crevice. Synonym: epithelial attachment. (05 Mar 2000) |
| junctional extrasystole | An extrasystole arising from the "junctional" tissues, either the A-V node or A-V bundle. Synonym: junctional extrasystole. (05 Mar 2000) |
| junctional rhythm | Rhythms originating anywhere within the A-V junction. Formerly, "A-V nodal" or simply "nodal" rhythms. (05 Mar 2000) |
| atrial chaotic tachycardia | Multifocal origin of tachycardia within the atrium; often confused with atrial fibrillation during physical examination. (05 Mar 2000) |
| atrial tachycardia | Paroxysmal tachycardia originating in an ectopic focus in the atrium. Synonym: auricular tachycardia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| auricular tachycardia | Paroxysmal tachycardia originating in an ectopic focus in the atrium. Synonym: auricular tachycardia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bidirectional ventricular tachycardia | Ventricular tachycardia in which the QRS complexes in the electrocardiogram are alternately mainly positive and mainly negative; many such cases may represent ventricular tachycardia with alternating forms of aberrant ventricular conduction. (05 Mar 2000) |
