| internal-external control | A general principle that man's attempts to control his personal environment are influenced by internal or external factors. (12 Dec 1998) |
| tick control | Chemical, biological, or medical measures designed to prevent the spread of ticks or the concomitant infestations which result in tick-borne diseases. It includes the veterinary as well as the public health aspects of tick and mite control. (12 Dec 1998) |
| time-varied gain control | In ultrasonography, an increase in receiver gain with time to compensate for loss in echo amplitude with depth, usually due to attenuation. Synonym: attenuation compensation, depth compensation, time compensation gain, time-compensated gain, time-varied gain control, time-varied gain. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tonic control | Nerve impulses that maintain a normal tonus or level of activity in muscle or other effector organs. (05 Mar 2000) |
| topographical control | Those phenomena of cell behaviour in which the shape of the local substrate of the cell affects its behaviour. See: contact guidance. (18 Nov 1997) |
| transcriptional control | <molecular biology> Control of gene expression by controlling the number of RNA transcripts of a region of DNA. A major regulatory mechanism for differential control of protein synthesis in both pro and eukaryotic cells. (18 Nov 1997) |
| translational control | <molecular biology> The control of protein synthesis by regulation of the translation step, for example by selective usage of preformed mRNA or instability of the mRNA. (18 Nov 1997) |
| facility regulation and control | Formal voluntary or governmental procedures and standards required of hospitals and health or other facilities to improve operating efficiency, and for the protection of the consumer. (12 Dec 1998) |
| feedback control | The regulation of the activity of an enzyme by one of its products. (09 Oct 1997) |
| feedforward control | The process in which one of the products of a metabolic pathway induces an enzyme which participates in the metabolic pathway to act. (09 Oct 1997) |
| forms and records control | A management function in which standards and guidelines are developed for the developing, maintaining, and handling of forms and records. (12 Dec 1998) |
| locus control region | A regulatory region first identified in the human beta-globin locus but subsequently found in other loci. The region is believed to regulate transcription by opening and remodeling chromatin structure. It may also have enhancer activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| locus of control | A theoretical construct designed to assess a person's perceived control over his/her own behaviour; classified as internal if the person feels in control of events, external if others are perceived to have that control. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ABO blood group | <haematology> The major human blood type system which describes the oligosaccharide glycoprotein antigens found on the surface of human blood cells. According to the type of antigen present, a person may be assigned a blood type of A, B, AB or O. A second type of antigen, the Rh factor, renders a positive or negative blood type. The ABO blood group system is important because it determines who can donate blood to or accept blood from whom. Type A or AB blood will cause an immune reaction in people with type B blood and type B and AB blood will cause a reaction in people with type A blood. Conversely, type O blood has no A or B antigens, so people with type O blood are universal donors. And since AB blood already produces both antigens, people who are type AB can accept any of the other blood types without suffering an immune reaction. (04 Jul 1999) |
| control group |
In clinical studies this is a group of patients which receives standard treatment, a treatment or intervention currently being used and considered to be of proved effectiveness on the basis of past studies. Results in patients receiving newly developed treatments may then be compared to the control group. In cases where no standard treatment yet exists for a particular condition, the control group would receive no treatment. ...

| control group |
a set of participants in a clinical trial whose results are measured as the basis of the study. A separate group of participants generate results to measure against those of the control group. The group of patients receiving the standard treatment or placebo used to compare results obtained in the "treatment group," the group of patients undergoing the experimental treatment regimen.

| control group |
A group of SUBJECTS who receive no TREATMENT. The control group provides the researcher with a means of evaluating the effects of the treatment by comparing the TREATMENT GROUP and the control group after the treatment has been received.

| control group |
A control group is a group for which the data from scientific or epidemiological study is compared with data from the victim group. Only if there are differences in the results between these two groups can it be demonstrated that the symptoms of the victim group genuinely have something to do with the disaster.
