| peripheral nervous system diseases | Diseases of the peripheral nervous system, including disorders of the peripheral autonomic system, the cranial nerves, and the spinal nerves and roots, but not including neuromuscular and spinal cord diseases. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| peripheral neuropathy | <neurology> Injury to the nerves that supply sensation to the arms and legs. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (16 Dec 1997) |
| peripheral ossifying fibroma | A reactive focal gingival overgrowth derived histogenetically from cells of the periodontal ligament and usually developing in response to local irritants (plaque and calculus) on associated teeth; consists microscopically of a hyperplastic cellular fibrous stroma supporting deposits of bone, cementum, or dystrophic calcification. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peripheral protein | <protein> A water-soluble protein that is loosely bound (by hydrogen bonds orelectrostatic forces) to a membrane. (09 Oct 1997) |
| peripheral proteins | Pathways that can be easily removed from a biomembrane (e.g., by altering the pH or the ionic strength). Synonym: extrinsic proteins. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peripheral resistance | The total resistance to flow of blood in the systemic circuit; the quotient produced by dividing the mean arterial pressure by the cardiac minute-volume. Synonym: peripheral resistance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peripheral scotoma | A scotoma outside of the central 30 degrees of the visual field. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peripheral seal | border seal |
| peripheral tabes | A syndrome having the characteristics of tabetic neurosyphilis but not due to syphilis. Synonym: Leyden's ataxia, peripheral tabes, pseudoataxia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peripheral vascular disease | A term used to describe progressive occlusive disease of the arteries that supply the extremities. Risk factors include atherosclerosis and diabetes. (27 Sep 1997) |
| peripheral vascular diseases | General or unspecified diseases of the blood vessels outside the heart. It is for diseases of the peripheral as opposed to the cardiac circulation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| peripheral vision | Vision resulting from retinal stimulation beyond the macula. Synonym: indirect vision. (05 Mar 2000) |
| total peripheral resistance | The total resistance to flow of blood in the systemic circuit; the quotient produced by dividing the mean arterial pressure by the cardiac minute-volume. Synonym: peripheral resistance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphoma, T-cell, peripheral | A group of malignant lymphomas thought to derive from peripheral T-lymphocytes in lymph nodes and other nonlymphoid sites. They include a broad spectrum of lymphocyte morphology, but in all instances express T-cell markers admixed with epithelioid histiocytes, plasma cells, and eosinophils. Although markedly similar to large-cell immunoblastic lymphoma (lymphoma, large-cell, immunoblastic), this group's unique features warrant separate treatment. (12 Dec 1998) |
