| primary energy | <radiobiology> Energy before conversion. For instance, the United States uses about 30,000 megajoules of electricity per capita per year, but electricity is generally obtained by converting other forms of energy (primarily chemical/heat) at an efficiency of around 30%, so the U.S. Consumes 90,000 megajoules of primary energy per capita for electrical use. (Total U.S. Primary energy consumption is 300,000 megajoules per capita.) (09 Oct 1997) |
| primary extrapulmonary coccidioidomycosis | A rare form of coccidioidomycosis presenting near the site of local trauma with painless firm nodules occurring at one to two weeks, accompanied by regional adenopathy, with spontaneous healing in a few weeks. (05 Mar 2000) |

Synonym: masked gout. (05 Mar 2000) |

| primary hyperoxaluria and oxalosis | A metabolic disorder characterised by calcium oxalate nephrocalcinosis and nephrolithiasis, extrarenal oxalosis, and increased urinary output of oxalic and glycolic acids; usually evident clinically in the first decade of life, with progressive renal failure and uraemia; autosomal recessive inheritance. Type I is due to an alteration in alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase; type II is due to an alteration in d-glycerate dehydrogenase. (05 Mar 2000) |
