| juvenile periodontitis | A degenerative periodontal disease of adolescents in which the periodontal destruction is out of proportion to the local irritating factors present on the adjacent teeth; inflammatory changes become superimposed, and bone loss, migration, and extrusion are observed. Two forms are recognised: 1) localised, in which the destruction is limited to the incisors and first molars; 2) generalised, involving all of the teeth. Synonym: periodontosis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| juvenile rheumatoid arthritis | <pathology> Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) is a form of rheumatoid arthritis in children that generally occurs prior to age 16. In contrast with the adult type, a fever is more pronounced. Cardiac involvement with pericarditis is more common. The arthritis favors one or more large joints and can interfere with normal bone growth. A positive rheumatoid factor is seen more uncommonly in this form of arthritis. Treatment is similar to the adult form of the disease. Up to 75% recover with treatment. Less than 10% are severely disabled by JRA. (27 Sep 1997) |
| juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, systemic-onset | Also known as systemic-onset juvenile chronic arthritis. Still's disease presents with systemic (bodywide) illness including high intermittent fever, a salmon-coloured skin rash, swollen lymph glands, enlargement of the liver and spleen, and inflammation of the lungs (pleuritis) and around the heart (pericarditis). The arthritis may not be immediately apparent but it does always surface and it may persists long after the systemic symptoms are gone. (12 Dec 1998) |
| juvenile spinal muscular atrophy | Slowly progressive proximal muscular weakness and wasting, beginning in childhood, caused by degeneration of motor neurons in the anterior horns of the spinal cord; onset usually between 2 and 17 years of age; usually autosomal recessive inheritance.

| juvenile hormone |
A chemical produced by the corpora allata, one of the three major insect development hormones, and responsible for determining the type of moult which will occur when one is directed by ecdysone. At high JH blood titre, additional larval or nymphal moults occur; low titre or complete absence of JH causes the pupal or imaginal transformation to occur.
