| 영문 | afferent nerve | 한글 | 들신경 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 몸의 중심으로 들어오는 신경, 즉 감각신경을 지칭하는 말이다. |

| 영문 | peripheral nerve | 한글 | 말초신경 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 중추신경계를 제외한 나머지 모든신경을 말함. 중추신경계는 뇌와 척수를 말하며, 그외 나머지 신경들로써 실제적으로 각 기관이나 사지 말단에 신경이 분포하며, 자극을 전달하는 일을 하는 신경을 모두 통틀어 말초신경이라 한다. 뇌에서 바로 나와 분포하는 뇌신경과 척수에서 기시하는 척수신경도 모두 말초신경에 해당한다. 또한 말초신경에는 각종 자율신경을 담당하는 교감신경, 부교감신경도 포함된다. |

| 영문 | optic nerve | 한글 | 시각신경 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 시각을 인지하는 신경. 이 신경은 단지 감각신경으로서만 작용한다. 따라서 어떤 사물을 따라 눈을 움직일 수 있는 것은 이 시각신경과는 무관하다(이것은 눈돌림신경(oculomotor nerve)에 의해 가능하다). 또한 시각신경은 고위중추신경계인 뇌에서 직접 분지하므로 손상시 재생은 불가능하며, 이에 대한 치료법은 없다. |

| cerebral palsy | A persisting qualitative motor disorder appearing before the age of three years, due to nonprogressive damage to the brain. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| wasting palsy | A serious neurologic disease that results from the progressive degeneration of the motor neurons. (27 Sep 1997) |
| craft palsy | Professional neurosis, a disorder of a group of muscles used chiefly in one's occupation, marked by the occurrence of spasm, paresis, or incoordination on attempt to repeat the habitual movements; e.g., writer's cramp; probably a focal dystonia. Synonym: craft palsy, functional spasm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| creeping palsy | A serious neurologic disease that results from the progressive degeneration of the motor neurons. (27 Sep 1997) |
| crutch palsy | A form of pressure paralysis affecting the arm, and caused by compression of the brachial plexus or radial nerve by the crosspiece of a crutch. Synonym: crutch palsy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posticus palsy | Paralysis of the cricoarytenoideus posticus muscle, resulting in the vocal cord being held in or near the midline. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pressure palsy | Paralysis due to compression of a nerve, nerve trunk, or spinal cord. Synonym: pressure palsy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| progressive bulbar palsy | One of the subgroups of motor neuron disease; a progressive degenerative disorder of the motor neurons of primarily the brainstem, manifested as weakness (and wasting) of the various bulbar muscles, resulting in dysarthria and dysphagia-fluid regurgitation is an outstanding symptom and can cause aspiration; tongue weakness and wasting is usually evident, and often the fasciculation potentials are present in the tongue and facial muscles. Synonym: glossopalatolabial paralysis, glossopharyngeolabial paralysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| progressive supranuclear palsy | A disorder that is associated with nerve cell destruction and progressive lack of coordination, neck stiffness, trunk stiffness, problems with eye movement and mild dementia. Disorders that are similar include Alzheimer's disease, cerebellar dysfunction, Jakob-Creutzfeldt disease and Parkinson's disease. The cause for progressive supranuclear palsy is unknown, but is likely a degenerative nerve disorder that is somehow triggered by a viral infection. Pathologic changes include nerve cell damage and destruction of myelin sheath. There is no known cure. (27 Sep 1997) |
| scrivener's palsy | A dystonia that affects the muscles of the hand and sometimes the forearm and only occurs during handwriting. Similar focal dystonias have also been called typist's cramp, pianist's cramp, musician's cramp, and golfer's cramp. (12 Dec 1998) |
| supranuclear palsy, progressive | A progressive neurological disease usually of the fifth decade characterised by supranuclear ophthalmoplegia especially paralysis of downward gaze, pseudobulbar palsy, gait disturbance, dysathria, truncal dystonia, memory and personality deterioration, and dementia. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Dejerine-Klumpke palsy | A type of brachial birth palsy in which there is paralysis of the muscles of the distal forearm and hand (all ulnar innervated muscles, plus more distal radial and median-innervated muscles), due to a lesion of the lower trunk of the brachial plexus, or of the C8 and T1 cervical roots. Synonym: Dejerine-Klumpke palsy, Dejerine-Klumpke syndrome, Klumpke's paralysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| diver's palsy | A disorder characterised by joint pains, respiratory manifestations, skin lesions, and neurologic signs, occurring in aviators flying at high altitudes and following rapid reduction of air pressure in persons who have been breathing compressed air in caissons and diving apparatus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| obstetrical palsy | A brachial plexus lesion sustained by the infant during the birthing process; three types are recognised: 1) upper plexus type, affects the shoulder and upper arm (Erb palsy); 2) total plexus type, involves the whole arm; 3) lower plexus type, involves the forearm and hand (Klumpke palsy). Synonym: obstetrical paralysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| trembling palsy | <neurology> A group of neurological disorders characterised by hypokinesia, tremor and muscular rigidity. (18 Nov 1997) |
