| UPI | Utero-Placental Insufficiency |
| divergence insufficiency | That condition in which an exophoria or exotropia is more marked for near vision than for far vision. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| divergence insufficiency exotropia | Exotropia in which the strabismus is notably greater for near vision than for far vision. (05 Mar 2000) |
| insufficiency | The condition of being insufficient or inadequate to the performance of the allotted duty. Origin: L. Insufficientia, from sufficiens = sufficient (18 Nov 1997) |
| thyroid insufficiency | Subnormal secretion of hormones by the thyroid gland. See: hypothyroidism. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tricuspid insufficiency | See: valvular insufficiency. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tricuspid valve insufficiency | Backflow of blood from the right ventricle into the right atrium, owing to imperfect functioning of the tricuspid valve. (12 Dec 1998) |
| exocrine pancreatic insufficiency | Lack of exocrine secretions of pancreas, due to destruction of acini, usually by chronic pancreatitis; lack of digestive enzymes from pancreas results in diarrhoea, usually fatty (steatorrhoea) because of lack of pancreatic enzymes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| uterine insufficiency | Atony of the uterine musculature. (05 Mar 2000) |
| latent adrenocortical insufficiency | Adrenocortical insufficiency not clinically evident but which can become severe if a sudden stress, such as an intercurrent acute illness, develops. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acute renal failure | <nephrology> A sudden decline in renal function may be triggered by a number of acute disease processes. Examples include sepsis (infection), shock, trauma, kidney stones, kidney infection, drug toxicity (aspirin or lithium), poisons or toxins (drug abuse) or after injection with an iodinated contrast dye (adverse effect). Chronic renal failure represents a slow decline in kidney function over time. Chronic renal failure may be caused by a number of disorders which include long-standing hypertension, diabetes, congestive heart failure, lupus or sickle cell anaemia. Both forms of renal failure result in a life-threatening metabolic derangement. (27 Sep 1997) |
| aminoaciduria, renal | Impairment of renal tubular transport of amino acids. (12 Dec 1998) |
| back-pressure renal atrophy | <radiology> Caliectasis without obstruction, due to repeated episodes of obstruction, gradual loss of renal pyramids (12 Dec 1998) |
| base of renal pyramid | The outer broad part of a renal pyramid that lies next to the cortex. Synonym: basis pyramidis renis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| branchio-oto-renal syndrome | <syndrome> An autosomal dominant disorder manifested by various combinations of preauricular pits, branchial fistulae or cysts, lacrimal duct stenosis, hearing loss, structural defects of the outer, middle, or inner ear, and renal dysplasia. Associated defects include asthenic habitus, long narrow facies, constricted palate, deep overbite, and myopia. Hearing loss may be due to mondini type cochlear defect and stapes fixation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| capsular branches of renal artery | <anatomy, artery> Branches arising from the renal artery outside of the kidney that are distributed to the renal capsule. Synonym: rami capsulares arteriae renalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
