| local nerve block | Infiltration of a local anesthetic around a peripheral nerve so as to produce anesthesia in the area supplied by the nerve. (16 Dec 1997) |
|---|---|
| local reaction | A reaction which occurs at the point of entrance of an infecting organism or of an injection, as in the Arthus phenomenon. Synonym: local reaction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| local sign | <clinical sign> The characteristic of a sensation that permits distinguishing it from another sensation by locating its position in space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| local stimulant | A stimulant whose action is confined to the part to which it is applied. (05 Mar 2000) |
| local symptom | A symptom of limited extent, caused by disease of a particular organ or part. (05 Mar 2000) |
| local syncope | Limited numbness in a part, especially of the fingers; one of the symptoms, usually associated with local asphyxia, of Raynaud's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| local tetanus | The most benign type of tetanus; the muscles in close proximity to an infected wound develop persistent involuntary contractions, often with transient, intense superimposed spasms triggered by various stimuli. The more distal upper extremity muscles are most often affected; gradual but complete recovery is typical. (05 Mar 2000) |
| local therapy | Treatment that affects cells in the tumour and the area close to it. (16 Dec 1997) |
| local tic | A tic of very limited extent, as the winking of an eye or a twitch of a finger. (05 Mar 2000) |
| local treatment | Treatment that affects the tumour and the area close to it. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Abbe theory of image formation | <optics, physics> Abbe's theory is based on the fact that a non-self-luminous particle, which is illuminated by an extraneous source, gives rise to diffracted light rays, in addition to the dioptric pencil. He stated that to form a good microscopical image as many of the diffracted rays as possible should be intercepted by the objective. With closely ruled lines, his theory is easily demonstrated by observing the back lens of the objective, for here the diffracted rays can be observed directly if the aperture diaphragm is closed. It can be shown that, when the illumination is arranged to exclude the diffracted images, resolution is lost. (11 Mar 1998) |
| adsorption theory of narcosis | That a drug becomes concentrated at the surface of the cell as a result of adsorption, and thus alters permeability and metabolism. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Altmann's theory | A theory that protoplasm consists of granular particles (called bioblasts) that are clustered and enclosed in indifferent matter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Arrhenius-Madsen theory | That the reaction of an antigen with its antibody is a reversible reaction, the equilibrium being determined according to the law of mass action by the concentrations of the reacting substances. (05 Mar 2000) |
| atomic theory | That chemical compounds are formed by the union of atoms in certain definite proportions; in its modern form, first advanced in 1803 by John Dalton. (05 Mar 2000) |
