|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 매독균의 reagin에 대한 항체. 매독의 선별검사로 사용되며 매독 치료에 대한 반응 여부와 치료효과 판정에도 사용된다. 매독외에도 전신성홍반성낭창, 류마티스관절염 등에서도 양성으로 나타날 수 있다. |

| 영문 | hemolytic disease of newborn | 한글 | 신생아용혈병 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 신생아에서 적혈구가 비정상적으로 많이 파괴되는 병으로 태아적모구증(erythroblastosis fetalis)와 같은 뜻으로 쓰인다. 이것은 어머니에게서 생산된 신생아나 태아의 적혈구에 대한 항체가 태반을 건너와서 태아의 적혈구와 결합하여서 생기는 용혈성빈혈을 이르는 말. 즉 신생아나 태아의 적혈구의 항체가 어머니의 몸에서 생산이 되고 이것이 태반을 통해서 태아에게 넘어가서 태아의 적혈구와 결합을 하고 이 항체와 결합한 적혈구는 파괴가 되어서 빈혈이 생긴 것을 태아적모구증이라고 한다. 이것은 Rh 적모구증(Rh erythroblastosis)와 ABO 적모구증(ABO erythroblastosis)로 나눌 수가 있다. |

| non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug | <pharmacology> A large group of anti-inflammatory agents that work by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins. They exert anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic actions. Examples include: ibuprofen, ketoprofen, piroxicam, naproxen, sulindac, aspirin, choline subsalicylate, diflunisal, fenoprofen, indomethacin, meclofenamate, salsalate, tolmetin and magnesium salicylate. A contrast is made with steroidal compounds (such as hydrocortisone or prednisone) exerting anti-inflammatory activity. Acronym: NSAID (05 May 2002) |

| desquamative inflammatory vaginitis | An acute inflammation of the vagina of unknown cause, characterised by grayish pseudomembrane, free discharge, and easy bleeding on trauma; the discharge contains pus and immature epithelial cells, although oestrogen levels are normal. Vaginitis emphysematosa, vaginitis characterised by accumulation of gas in small connective tissue spaces lined by foreign-body giant cells. Synonym: pachyvaginitis cystica, vaginitis cystica. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inflammatory | <pathology> Inflammation is the reaction of living tissues to injury, infection or irritation. Inflamed tissues are characterised by pain, swelling, redness and heat. Anything that stimulates the inflammatory response is said to be inflammatory. See: inflammation. (11 Jun 1998) |
| inflammatory bowel diseases | Chronic, non-specific disorders of unknown aetiology. Includes crohn disease and ulcerative colitis. Extracolonic manifestations are often associated with inflammatory bowel disease (ibd) and involve the liver, joints and skin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| inflammatory carcinoma | <tumour> Carcinoma of the breast presenting with oedema, hyperaemia, tenderness, and rapid enlargment of the breast; microscopically, there is extensive invasion of dermal lymphatics by the carcinoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inflammatory corpuscle | A cell present in an exudate that assists in the organization of new tissue. Synonym: exudation cell, inflammatory corpuscle, plastic corpuscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inflammatory fibrous hyperplasia | Overgrowth of tissue in the mucobuccal or labial fold, induced by chronic trauma from ill-fitting dentures. Synonym: denture hyperplasia, epulis fissuratum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inflammatory lymph | A faintly yellow, usually coagulable fluid (i.e., euplastic lymph) that collects on the surface of an acutely inflamed membrane or cutaneous wound. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inflammatory macrophage | A macrophage found at sites of inflammation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inflammatory oedema | A swelling due to effusion of fluid in the soft parts surrounding a focus of inflammation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inflammatory papillary hyperplasia | Closely arranged papules of the palatal mucosa underlying an ill-fitting denture. Synonym: palatal papillomatosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inflammatory polyp | A projecting mass of granulation tissue, large numbers of which may develop in ulcerative colitis; may become covered by regenerating epithelium. Synonym: inflammatory polyp. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inflammatory pseudotumour | A tumour-like mass in the lungs or other sites, composed of fibrous or granulation tissue infiltrated by inflammatory cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inflammatory response | A part of innate immunity. Inflammation occurs when tissues are injured by viruses, bacteria, trauma, chemicals, heat, cold or any other harmful stimulus. Chemicals including bradykinin, histamine, serotonin and others are released by specialised cells. These chemicals attract tissue macrophages and white blood cells to localise in an area to engulf (phagocytize) and destroy foreign substances. A byproduct of this activity is the formation of pus--a combination of white blood cells, bacteria and foreign debris. The chemical mediators released during the inflammatory response give rise to the typical findings associated with inflammation. (27 Sep 1997) |
| inflammatory rheumatism | Rheumatoid arthritis or other cause of joint inflammation. (05 Mar 2000) |
