| 영문 | dumping syndrome | 한글 | 덤핑증후군 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 부분적 위절제술 또는 위빈창자연결술을 받은 환자에게서 음식을 먹은 후에 일어나는 증후군이다. 명치 부분의 팽만감과 압박감-구역-구토 등의 복부증상 외에 탈력감-현기증-발한-가슴띔 등 순환장애 증상이 따른다. 그런 증상은 섭취한 음식물이 위에서 작은창자로 추락하듯 배출됨으로써 음식물의 무게로 인해 소화관이 아래쪽으로 쳐져든다. 작은창자벽이 급격하게 늘어나든가, 화학적 자극으로 인한 작은창자벽의 자율신경반사, 작은창자벽의 삼투압에 의해 소화관으로 수분이 급속히 대량 이동하여 순환되는 혈액의 양이 감소하여 일어난다. 주로 식사요법으로 치료하여, 약물요법으로는 아트로핀-헥사메토늄-페노바르비탈-탄산수소나트륨의 사용 및 포도당주사도 효과가 있다. 수술요법은 빌로스(Billroth) 제1법으로의 변환, 대용위의 제작 등이 있으나 확실한 것은 아니다. |

| 영문 | severe acute respiratory syndrome(SARS) | 한글 | 사스 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 중국 광동 지역에서 가장 먼저 발생한 전염성 호흡기 질환으로 세계보건기구(WHO)에서 ‘중증급성호흡증후군(SARS)'으로 명명했다. 섭씨 38도 이상의 고열과 기침, 호흡곤란, 저산소증, X선상의 폐렴증상 중 하나 이상의 증상이 나타나며, 두통, 근육통, 식욕부진, 피로감, 발진, 설사를 동반할 수 있다. 초기 증상은 감기와 비슷하지만 폐렴으로 발전하면 치명적일 수 있다. 현재 밝혀진 감염경로는 환자가 재채기나 기침할 때 내뿜는 침방울이고, 이것이 다른 사람의 호흡기로 들어갈 때 전염된다. 침방울이 전달되는 거리는 보통 1m로 보고 있다. 공기를 통해 전염이 가능하다는 주장이 제기됐지만 아직 확인되지 않았다. 원인균은 변종 코로나바이러스로 밝혀졌다. |

| syndrome, creutzfeldt-jakob | Better known as creutzfeldt-jakob disease (cjd). A dementing disease of the brain. It is believed due to an unconventional (not a bacteria or virus), transmissible agent called a prion. Symptoms of cjd include forgetfulness, nervousness, jerky trembling hand movements, unsteady gait, muscle spasms, chronic dementia, balance disorder, and loss of facial expression. Cjd is classified as a spongiform encephalopathy. most cases occur randomly (sporadically), but inherited forms exist. There is neither treatment nor cure for cjd. Other names for cjd include jakob-creutzfeldt disease and spastic pseuodoparalysis. (12 Dec 1998) |

| syndrome, cushing's | The constellation of symptoms and signs caused by an excess of cortisol hormone. Cushing syndrome is an extremely complex hormonal condition that involves many areas of the body. Common symptoms are thinning of the skin, weakness, weight gain, bruising, hypertension, diabetes, thin weak bones (osteoporosis), facial puffiness, and in women cessation of periods. Ironically, one of the commonest causes of cushing's syndrome is the administration of cortisol-like medications for the treatment of diverse diseases. All other cases of cushing's syndrome are due to excess production of cortisol by the adrenal gland including 1) an abnormal growth of the pituitary gland, which stimulates the adrenal gland, 2) a benign or malignant growth within the adrenal gland itself, which produces cortisol and 3) production within another part of the body (ectopic production) of a hormone that directly or indirectly stimulates the adrenal gland to make cortisol. Neurosurgeon harvey cushing (1869-1939) described hyperadrenocorticism (excessive production of cortisol by the adrenal gland) due quite specifically to an acth-secreting pituitary adenoma, a benign pituitary tumour that puts out acth (adrenocorticotropic hormone) which, in turn, drives (or overdrives) the adrenal gland to overproduce cortisol. (12 Dec 1998) |
| syndrome, digeorge | This disorder is characterised by (1) low blood calcium levels (hypocalcaemia) due to underdevelopment (hypoplasia) of the parathyroid glands which control calcium; (2) underdevelopment (hypoplasia) of the thymus, an organ behind the breastbone in which lymphocytes mature and multiply; and (3) defects of the heart involving the outflow tracts from the heart. most cases of dgs are due to a microdeletion in chromosome band 22q11.2. A small number of cases have defects in other chromosomes, notably 10p13. Named after the american paediatric endocrinologist angelo more than digeorge. Other names for dgs include the third and fourth pharyngeal pouch syndrome and hypoplasia of the thymus and parathyroids. (12 Dec 1998) |
| syndrome, down | A common disorder due to a chromosome abnormality and specfically due to an extra chromosome number 21 (trisomy 21). Down syndrome includes mental retardation, a characteristic face, and multiple malformations. It is associated with a major risk for heart problems, a lesser risk of duodenal atresia (part of the intestines not developed), and a minor but still significant risk of acute leukaemia. The name down syndrome comes from the 19th century english doctor langdon down, a misnomer since he was curiously enough not the first person to describe the condition and, in great error, attributed the condition to a reversion to the mongoloid race. Hence, the old name mongolism, now considered slang. (12 Dec 1998) |
| syndrome, dumping | A group of symptoms that occur when food or liquid enters the small intestine too rapidly. These symptoms include cramps, nausea, diarrhoea, and dizziness. (12 Dec 1998) |
| syndrome, edwards | This is trisomy 18 syndrome. There are three instead of the normal two chromosomes 18. Children with this condition have multiple malformations and mental retardation due to the extra chromosome 18. The children characteristically have low birth weight, small head (microcephaly), small jaw (micrognathia), malformations of the heart and kidneys, clenched fists with abnormal finger positioning, and malformed feet. The mental retardation is profound with the iq too low to even test. Nineteen out of 20 (95%) of these children die before their first birthday. The condition is named after the british physician and more than geneticist john edwards who discovered the extra chromosome in 1960. (12 Dec 1998) |
| syndrome, fish-odour | An inborn error of metabolism associated with an offensive body odour, the smell of rotting fish, due to the excessive excretion of trimethylaminuria (tma) in urine, sweat, and breath. Persons with tma may experience tachycardia (fast heart rate) and severe hypertension (high blood pressure) after eating cheese (which contains tyramine) and after using nasal sprays containing epinephrine. Tma is caused by a mutation (change) in the gene for an enzyme, flavin-containing monooxygenase-3 (fmo3) encoded by a gene on chromosome 1. The fmo3 enzyme metabolises tyramine (which is in cheese). The syndrome is associated with various psychosocial reactions, including social isolation, clinical depression and attempted suicide. (12 Dec 1998) |
| syndrome, floppy baby | Floppy baby syndrome is a general medical reference to an abnormal condition of newborns and infants manifest by inadequate tone of the muscles. Hypotonia (inadequately toned muscles resulting in floppiness) in the newborn period and infancy can be due to a multitude of different neurologic and muscle problems. (12 Dec 1998) |
| syndrome, foetal alcohol | The sum total of a person's problems caused by maternal alcohol intake during pregancy. (12 Dec 1998) |
| syndrome, fragile x | The most common heritable form of mental retardation. Fragile x syndrome is due to mutation (changes) at the fragile x site and so perforce is x-linked (carried on the x chromosome). Although it is usually more severe in males than females, the syndrome is due to a dynamic mutation (a trinucleotide repeat) that can change in length and hence in severity from generation to generation, from person to person, and even within a given person. The fragile x syndrome is also known as the martin-bell syndrome in honor of their discovery of it in 1943. (12 Dec 1998) |
| syndrome, gareis-mason | See Syndrome, MASA. (12 Dec 1998) |
| syndrome, hecht | Inherited disorder transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait in which short tight muscles make it impossible to open the mouth fully or keep the fingers straight when the hand is flexed back. The small mouth creates feeding problems. The hands may be so tightly fisted the infant crawls on the knuckles. Also called the trismus pseudocamptodactyly syndrome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| syndrome, horner | A complex of abnormal findings, namely sinking in of one eyeball, ipsilateral ptosis (drooping of the upper eyelid on the same side) and miosis (constriction of the pupil of that eye) together with anhidosis (lack of sweating) and flushing of the affected side of the face. Due to paralysis of certain nerves (specifically, the cervical sympathetic nerves). Also called horner-bernard syndrome, bernard syndrome, bernard-horner syndrome and horner's ptosis but far and away best known as horner syndrome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| syndrome, hurler | A genetic error of metabolism. There is incomplete breakdown and accumulation of a substance (a mucopolysaccharide) which is abnormally stored in the brain and other places. This usually leads to death of the individual with hurler syndrome by their early teen years. See gargoylism. (12 Dec 1998) |
| syndrome, incontinentia pigmenti | A genetic disease with blisters that develop soon after birth on the trunk and limbs, then heal, but leave dark (hyperpigmented) streaks and marble-like whorls on the skin. (the name came from the erroneous idea that the skin cells were incontinent of pigment and could not contain it normally.) other key features of ip include dental and nail abnormalities, bald patches, and (in about 1/3rd of cases) mental retardation. Ip is an x-linked dominant with male lethality. The ip gene is in band q28 on the x chromosome. Mothers with ip have an equal chance of having a normal or ip daughter or a normal son. The ip sons die before birth. Ip is also known as bloch-sulzberger syndrome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| acute radiation syndrome | <syndrome> A syndrome caused by exposure of the body to large amounts of radiation, (e.g., from certain forms of therapy, accidents, and nuclear explosions; it is divided into three major forms which are, in ascending order of severity, the haematogic, gastrointestinal, and central nervous system-cardiovascular forms; its clinical manifestations are divided into prodromal, latent, overt, and recovery stages. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Adie syndrome | <syndrome> A condition manifested by usually one tonic pupil with absent tendon reflexes. An idiopathic postganglionic denervation of the parasympathetically innervated intraocular muscles, usually complicated by signs of aberrant regeneration of these nerves: a weak light reaction with segmental palsy of iris sphincter, a strong slow near response. Deep tendon reflexes, particularly ankle and knee, are often asymmetrically reduced. See: tonic pupil. Synonym: Adie's pupil, Holmes-Adie pupil, Holmes-Adie syndrome, pupillotonic pseudotabes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adiposogenital syndrome | A disorder characterised primarily by obesity and hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism in adolescent boys; dwarfism is rare, and when present is thought to reflect hypothyroidism. Visual loss, behavioural abnormalities, and diabetes insipidus may occur. Frohlich's syndrome often is used synonymously for this disorder, although the original case involved a pituitary tumour; most cases are thought to result from hypothalamic dysfunction in areas regulating appetite and gonadal development. The most common causes are pituitary and hypothalamic neoplasms. Synonym: adiposis orchica, adiposogenital degeneration, adiposogenital dystrophy, adiposogenital syndrome, hypophysial syndrome, hypothalamic obesity with hypogonadism. Origin: L. Fr. G.
