| middle stage HIV disease | <disease> This refers to an HIV infection that is characterised by signs and symptoms of HIV that are not life-threatening. Examples include oral thrush, gingivitis, seborrheic dermatitis, molluscum contangiosum, fevers, fatigue, lymph node swelling, malaise and weight loss. This stage can be a signal for the conversion from asymptomatic HIV disease to HIV disease (moe pronouced symptoms include joint pains). AIDS is diagnosed after HIV disease has started to manifest life-threatening oppotunistic infections (for example pneumocystis, cryptosporidium, toxoplasmosis, etc). (27 Sep 1997) |

| stage | <oncology> The extent to which cancer has spread from its original site to other parts of the body. Usually denoted by a number from Stage 1 (least severe) to Stage 4 (more advanced). Different lymphoma types have different criteria for staging. (12 May 1997) |
| stage mechanical | <microscopy> A small fixture, either built into the light microscope stage or attached separately, it holds the specimen slide and has two horizontal screw adjustments at right angles to each other. The screw motions permit the specimen to be moved as desired. The quantitative type has vermer scales for reading the amount of displacement to 0.1 mm. This stage is sometimes called the traversing stage. (05 Aug 1998) |
| stage micrometre | <microscopy> A graduated scale used as a standard on the stage of a light microscope for calibrating an eyepiece micrometre, also for determining the magnification of a set-up in photomicrography, etc. (05 Aug 1998) |
| stage of dilatation | The part of labour when the cervix dilates fully (to 10 centimeters). Also called the first stage of labour. (12 Dec 1998) |
