| drosophila heat-shock protein | <protein> Proteins which are immediately produced when the Drosophila fruit fly is exposed for a short time to extreme heat or other stress, such as toxic substances or alcohol. (09 Oct 1997) |

| insulin shock | A severe condition that occurs when the level of blood glucose (sugar) drops quickly. The signs are shaking, sweating, dizziness, double vision, convulsions, and collapse. Insulin shock may occur when an insulin reaction is not treated quickly enough. See: hypoglycaemia. (09 Oct 1997) |
| insulin shock treatment | Formerly used treatment for serious mental disorders in which the patient was given insulin to induce a seizure; supplanted by electroshock therapy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| irreversible shock | Shock that has progressed beyond the stage when it will respond to transfusion or other form of treatment, and recovery is impossible. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oligaemic shock | Shock associated with pronounced fall in blood volume, sometimes resulting from increased permeability of blood vessels. (05 Mar 2000) |
| osmotic shock | Passage of solvent into a membrane bound structure due to osmosis, causing rupture of the membrane. A method of lysing cells or organelles. (18 Nov 1997) |
| electric shock | A sudden violent impression caused by the passage of a current of electricity through any portion of the body. (05 Mar 2000) |
| electrohydraulic shock wave lithotripsy | Destruction of calculi (urinary tract or other) by fragmentation using shock waves sent transcutaneously. (05 Mar 2000) |
| toxic shock | See toxic shock syndrome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| toxic shock syndrome | <syndrome> A blood-borne bacterial infection caused by the genus Staphylococcus. Usually effects menstruating females under the age of thirty and was associated in the past with the use of a particular type of tampon (no longer used). Common symptoms include: fever, chills, vomiting, sore throat, headache and decreased urine output. Progression of disease can result in lowering of blood pressure (shock) and renal failure. Treatment includes hospitalisation and intravenous antibiotics emergently. (27 Sep 1997) |
| endotoxin shock | Shock induced by release of endotoxin from Gram-negative bacteria, especially by Escherichia coli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| erethistic shock | Traumatic or toxic delirium following shock. Synonym: delirious shock. (05 Mar 2000) |
| extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy | <procedure> This procedure uses sound waves delivered inside a water bath to pulverise kidney stones painlessly inside the body. (11 Nov 1997) |
| acute primary haemorrhagic meningoencephalitis | A disease characterised by acute onset of fever, followed by convulsions, delirium, and coma, and associated with perivascular demyelination and haemorrhagic foci in the central nervous system. Synonym: acute primary haemorrhagic meningoencephalitis, Strumpell's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acyclic monoterpene primary alcohol - NADP oxidoreductase | <enzyme> From catmint nepeta racemosa; involved in the biosynthesis of iridoid monoterpenes; oxidises geraniol, nerol, and their 10-hydroxy derivatives in the presence of nadp(+). Registry number: EC 1.1.1.- Synonym: monoterpene primary alcohol - nadp oxidoreductase, ampano (26 Jun 1999) |
