|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 뇌에 전기 자극을 주어 인위적으로 경련을 유발함으로써 정신 병을 치료하는 방법. 전기쇼크요법(electroshock therapy)이라고도 한다. 1938년에 이탈리아의 체를레티와 비니에 의해 시작되었다. 작용기전은 확실치 않으나 뇌의 신진대사, 생화학 및 효소 등에 변화를 일으킨다는 생물학적, 생화학적 학설이 유력하다. 적응증으로 가장 효과적인 병은 우울증으로 특히 여성에서 갱년기에 호발하는 갱년기 우울증, 우울증과 조증(아주 기분이 좋은 상태가 지속되는 정신병)이 일정한 주기를 두고 반복하는 조울증에 잘 쓰이며, 80~90%에서 효과가 있다. |

| interstitial growth | Growth from a number of different centres within an area; in contrast with appositional growth, it can occur only when the materials involved are nonrigid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interstitial hernia | A hernia in which the protrusion is between any two of the layers of the abdominal wall. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interstitial implantation | Implantation in which the blastocyst lies within the substance of the endometrium, as in humans and guinea pigs. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interstitial inflammation | Inflammation in which the inflammatory reaction occurs chiefly in the supportive fibrous connective tissue or stroma of an organ. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interstitial keratitis | An inflammation of the corneal stroma, often with neovascularization. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interstitial lamella | One of the lamellae of partially resorbed osteons occurring between newer, complete osteons. Synonym: ground lamella, intermediary system, intermediate lamella. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interstitial lung disease | <chest medicine> A group of lung disorders which result in scarring and dysfunction of the alveolus (air sac) in the lung. This results in poor oxygen diffusion from the air into the bloodstream. Widespread inflammation in the lung leads to fibrosis (scarring). Causes include chronic exposure to organic and inorganic dusts, fumes, vapors, radiation, medications and certain lung infections. Examples include asbestosis, silicosis, coal worker's pneumoconiosis and diffuse interstitial fibrosis. Smoking increases the risk in all cases. (27 Sep 1997) |
| interstitial lung disease with increased volume | <radiology> Cystic fibrosis (CF), eosinophilic granuloma (EG), lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) (12 Dec 1998) |
| interstitial mastitis | Inflammation of the connective tissue of the mammary gland. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interstitial myositis | Induration of a muscle through an interstitial growth of fibrous tissue. Synonym: Froriep's induration, interstitial myositis, myofascitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interstitial nephritis | <nephrology> A relatively uncommon condition which is characterised by inflammation of the renal tubules, glomeruli and surrounding tissue. Interstitial nephritis is usually be temporary and often associated with the use of a particular medication. Chronic and progressive forms do exist. Drugs that have been associated with interstitial nephritis include penicillins, ampicillin, sulpha drugs, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, furosemide and thiazide diuretics. May result in mild kidney dysfunction or acute renal failure. Treatment may be with corticosteroids. Incidence: 1 in 25,000. (27 Sep 1997) |
| interstitial neuritis | Inflammation of the connective tissue framework of a nerve. Synonym: Eichhorst's neuritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interstitial nucleus | A group of widely spaced, medium-sized neurons in the dorsomedial region of the upper mesencephalic tegmentum, immediately lateral to the nucleus of Darkschewitsch; together with the latter, the interstitial nucleus is closely associated with the medial longitudinal fasciculus, via which it receives fibres from the vestibular nuclei and projects crossed fibres via the posterior commissure to the oculomotor nucleus; also projects fibres to all spinal levels. It is believed to be involved in the integration of head and eye movements, particularly eye movements of a vertical or oblique nature. Synonym: nucleus interstitialis, interstitial nucleus of Cajal.
