| 설명 | 혈압이란 혈관에 걸리는 압력을 말하는 것으로 대개 특별한 설명이 없으면 동맥의 압력을 말한다. 혈압에는 수축기혈압(systolic blood pressure)과 이완기혈압(diastolic blood pressure)이 있다. 수축기혈압이란 심장이 수축할 경우에 동맥에 걸리는 압력을 말하고, 이완기 혈압이란 심장이 이완할 경우에 동맥에 걸리는 압력을 말한다. 당연히 수축기 혈압이 이완기 혈압보다 높다. 혈압을 말할 때에 예를 들어 120/80mmHg이라고 적는 것의 앞의 것은 수축기 혈압을 의미하고 뒤에 적는 80은 이완기 혈압을 의미한다. |

| rebound effect | The characteristic of a drug to produce reverse effects when either the effect of the drug has passed or when the patient no longer responds to the drug. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| Venturi effect | Term applied to the operation of a Venturi tube and similar systems. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mass effect | <neurology> Damage to the brain due the bulk of a tumour, the blockage of fluid or excess accumulation of fluid within the skull. (16 Dec 1997) |
| red drop effect | Experimental observation that the photosynthetic efficiency of monochromatic light is greatly reduced above 680 nm, even though chlorophyll absorbs well up to 700 nm. Led to the discovery of the two light reactions of photosynthesis. See: photosystems I and II. (18 Nov 1997) |
| gibbs-donnan effect | The observation that charged molecules starting on one side of a semipermeable membrane sometimes will not evenly distribute themselves by diffusion on both sides of the membrane. This effect is probably because there are other charged substances already present which cannot move through the membrane themselves and which are creating an electric field that influences the movement of the incoming charged molecules. (09 Oct 1997) |
| maternal effect gene | Gene, usually required for early embryonic development, whose product is secreted into the egg by the mother. The phenotype is thus determined by the mother's, rather than the egg's, genotype. Compare:. Zygotic effect gene. See: egg polarity gene. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Pasteur effect | <biochemistry> Decrease in the rate of carbohydrate breakdown that occurs in yeast and other cells when switched from anaerobic to aerobic conditions. Results from a relatively slow flux of material through the biochemical pathways of respiration compared with those of fermentation. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Pasteur's effect | The inhibition of fermentation by oxygen, first observed by Pasteur; either not observed, or only slightly observed, in malignant tumours. Compare: Crabtree effect. (05 Mar 2000) |
| glucose effect | <biochemistry> The ability of the sugar glucose to block sugar metabolism by keeping the genes which make the enzymes involved in the early steps of sugar metabolism from making those enzymes. (09 Oct 1997) |
| greenhouse effect | The effect of certain gases in the Earth's atmosphere in trapping heat from the sun. (05 Dec 1998) |
| Rivero-Carvallo effect | Inspiratory increase in the systolic murmur of tricuspid insufficiency; the characteristic distinguishing tricuspid insufficiency from mitral insufficiency. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Circe effect | An effect observed in enzyme catalysis in which accelerated diffusion of the substrate occurs through attractive forces of the enzyme's active site. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Russell effect | The ability of an agent, other than light, to make a developable latent image in a photographic film emulsion. Synonym: Russell effect. (05 Mar 2000) |
| clasp-knife effect | Initial increased resistance to stretch of the extensor muscles of a joint that give way rather suddenly allowing the joint then to be easily flexed; the rigidity is due to an exaggeration of the stretch reflex. See: lengthening reaction. Synonym: clasp-knife effect, clasp-knife rigidity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| photechic effect | The ability of an agent, other than light, to make a developable latent image in a photographic film emulsion. Synonym: Russell effect. (05 Mar 2000) |
