| 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. |

| 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. |

| cold haemolysin | An autoantibody of the IgG class responsible for paroxysmal cold haemoglobinuria; it is adsorbed to red cells only at temperatures of 20캜 or lower, causing the red cells to lyse in the presence of complement at higher temperatures; it has only slight agglutinating properties in spite of its marked lytic activity, and has a specificity within the blood group P; it is also occasionally present for short periods of time following measles and other infections, and formerly was frequently associated with syphilis. Synonym: cold haemolysin. (05 Mar 2000) |

| cold injury | Cold injuries include chilblains, trench foot, and frostbite. Cold injuries occur with and without freezing of body tissues. The young and the elderly are especially prone to cold injury. Alcohol increases the risk of cold injury which can lead to loss of body parts and even to death. It is important not to thaw an extremity if there is a risk of it re-freezing. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cold insoluble globulin | <haematology> Name, now obsolete, originally given to fibronectin prepared from cryoprecipitate. (18 Nov 1997) |
| cold in the head | An acute catarrhal inflammation of the mucous membrane of the nose, marked by sneezing, lacrimation, and a profuse secretion of watery mucus; usually associated with infection by one of the common cold viruses. Synonym: cold in the head, coryza. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cold light | Fluorescent light as opposed to incandescent light. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cold liver lesion | <radiology> Size for detection = 1-2 cm (3-cm deep lesions), primary tumour (haemangioma hot by Tc-RBCs), metastasis, inflammatory lesion (e.g., amebic abscess), degenerative disease, trauma, congenital lesion (solitary cyst or polycystic disease) see: liver-spleen scan (12 Dec 1998) |
| cold nodule | A thyroid nodule with a much lower uptake of radioactive iodine than the surrounding parenchyma; about one in four prove to be malignant. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cold pack | A pack of cloth or other material soaked in cold water or encasing ice. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cold pressed | <technique> A more natural process by which vegetable oils are produced to yield greater nutrient value. Cold pressing does not use heat or chemicals that commercial pressing does. (27 Sep 1997) |
| cold processed | <technique> A process by which chemicals are used to extract vegetable oils. The chemicals are later filtered out. (27 Sep 1997) |

| cold-rigor point | The degree of lowered temperature at which the activity of a cell ceases and the cell passes into the narcotic or hibernating state. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cold sensitive enzyme | <enzyme> An enzyme that loses its stability as the temperature is lowered. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cold-sensitive mutant | A mutant that is defective at low temperature but functional at normal temperature. Compare: temperature-sensitive mutant. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cold sore | <dermatology, virology> An infection of the lips or mouth which results in a blistery sore that is caused by Herpes simplex type 1. Painful blisters (eventually becoming ulcers) will often presenting on the lips or nasal mucosa. Infected individuals should avoid contact with others due to potential for transfer of the infection. Herpes labialis tends to be recurrent and often exacerbated by stress, sunlight, fever or illness. Treatment includes the use of antiviral creams (acyclovir) and oral medications (acyclovir). Pre-treatment with oral acyclovir, in those prone to cold sores (prior to sun exposure, etc.) has been shown to decrease exacerbations. (27 Sep 1997) |
