|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 줄여서 팝도말검사(Pap smear)이라고 부른다. 여성의 자궁목암의 발생을 미리 알아보기 위해 시행하는 검사법으로 미국에서는 이 방법으로 현재 자궁목암발생에 의한 사망률을 현저히 낮추고 있다. 방법은 산부인과에서 시행하며, 여성의 자궁목에서 세포를 가져다가 도말하여 현미경으로 검사한다. 요즈음에 와서는 자궁목뿐 아니라 호흡기나 비뇨기 등 분비물을 도말하여 파파니콜로 염색을 하여 검사하는 것도 여기에 포함된다. (그림 P-3). |

| 영문 | glucose tolerance test | 한글 | 포도당견딤검사 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 포도당견딤 검사란 당뇨병의 진단에 사용되는 검사로 당을 체내에 투여하고 시간 별로 혈액을 채취하여 혈당의 농도를 재어서 고혈당 여부를 조사하는 검사이다. 주로 경구포도당견딤검사(oral glucose tolerance test)를 많이 하는데 이것은 10~16시간의 금식 후에 채혈을 한번 한뒤에 도당 75g을 250~300mL의 물에 녹여 5분에 걸쳐서 마시게 하고 매시간 별로 채혈을 하여 혈당의 농도를 첵크한다. 공복시에 정맥에서 채혈하여 측정한 혈당이 140mg/dL이상이거나 포도당견딤 검사 2시간후의 혈당이 200mg/dL이상일 경우에는 당뇨병으로 진단을 한다. 그러나 이 검사를 실시할 경우에 주의해야 할 점은 검사전 3일간 하루에 150g이상의 탄수화물을 섭취해야 한다는 것과 검사도중에 운동, 흡연 등을 하지 않아야 한다는 것이다. |

| 영문 | blood test | 한글 | 혈액검사 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 혈액형이나 질병 유무 따위를 알기 위하여 피를 뽑아 행하는 검사. 몸 전체의 장기나 조직에 병터가 있으면 이들 성분에 변화가 있게 되어 진단에 큰 도움을 준다. |

| stress-bearing area | Surfaces of structures that resist forces, strains, or pressures brought upon them during function. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| stress breaker | A device that relieves the abutment teeth, to which a fixed or removable partial denture is attached, of all or part of the forces generated by occlusal function. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stress disorders, posttraumatic | Anxiety disorders manifested by the development of characteristic symptoms following a psychologically traumatic event that is outside the normal range of usual human experience. Symptoms include re-experiencing the traumatic event and numbing of responsiveness to or reduced involvement with the external world. (12 Dec 1998) |
| stress echocardiogram | <investigation> An echocardiogram that is performed after a period of physical exertion. Chemical stimulation of the heart (to mimic exertion) is used in some cases where physical activity is not possible. In some cases, exertion may manifest a cardiac abnormality not obvious during echocardiography in the resting heart. (27 Sep 1997) |
| stress echocardiography | Echocardiographic monitoring of a circulatory challenge, usually exercise. Transesophageal echocardiography, recording of the echocardiogram from a transducer swallowed by the patient to predetermined distances in the oesophagus and stomach. Transthoracic echocardiography, the standard echocardiography recorded from echocardiographic "windows" on the precordium. Two-dimensional echocardiography, echocardiography in which an image is reconstructed from the echoes stimulated and detected by a linear array or moving transducers. Synonym: B-mode echocardiography, cross-sectional echocardiography. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stress fibre | <physiology> Long bundles of microfilaments made up of actin subunits. They are involved in the attachment of cultured cells to a substratum, the determination of cell shape and may be involved in cellular mobility. They are found in most cells and have been shown to be contractile, have a periodicity reminiscent of the sarcomere and are anchored at one end to a focal adhesion, although sometimes between two focal adhesions. (17 Jul 2002) |
| stress fracture | <orthopaedics, radiology> A hairline or microscopic break in the bone that is not demonstrable with conventional X-rays. Symptoms include a dull aching pain with tenderness at the site. Symptoms often increase with activity and diminish with rest. Nuclear bone scanning will reliably demonstrate stress fractures where conventional radiographs often fail. Although they may occur in most any location, they are most common in the tibia, fibula and metatarsal bones. (27 Sep 1997) |
| stress immunity | Insusceptibility or resistance to the effects of emotional strain. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stress induced protein | <molecular biology> Alternative and preferable name for heat-shock proteins of eukaryotic cells, which emphasises that the same small group of proteins is stimulated both by heat and various other stresses. (18 Nov 1997) |
| stress, mechanical | A purely physical condition which exists within any material because of strain or deformation by external forces or by non-uniform thermal expansion; expressed quantitatively in units of force per unit area. (12 Dec 1998) |
| stress, psychological | Stress wherein emotional factors predominate. (12 Dec 1998) |
| stress reaction | An acute emotional reaction related to extreme environmental stress. Synonym: acute situational reaction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stress riser | A mechanical defect, such as a hole, in bone or other materials that concentrates stress in the area. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stress shielding | Osteopenia occurring in bone as the result of removal of normal stress from the bone by an implant. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stress-strain curve | A curve showing the ratio of deformation to load during the testing of a material in tension. (05 Mar 2000) |
