| 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. |

| end point | <chemistry> It is the completion point during a titration reaction where there are equal amounts of titrant and whatever is being titrated. It is usually evident by the first perceptible alteration of the colour of an added indicator. <immunology> It is the most dilute an antibody or antiserum solution can be while still detectably reacting with the antigen. <statistics> A category of data used to compare the outcome in different arms of a clinical trial. Common endpoints are severe toxicity, disease progression or fall in such surrogate markers as CD4 count, but sometimes death is used as an endpoint. (08 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| end-point measurement | Analytical measurement at the end of a chemical reaction, as opposed to making the measurement while the reaction proceeds. (05 Mar 2000) |
| end-point nystagmus | A jerky, physiologic nystagmus occurring in a normal individual when attempts are made to fixate a point at the limits of the field of fixation. Synonym: deviational nystagmus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| trigger point | A specific point or area where, if stimulated by touch, pain, or pressure, a painful response will be induced. Synonym: dolorogenic zone, trigger area, trigger zone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| triple point | The temperature at which all three phases (i.e., solid, liquid, and gas) are in equilibrium; the triple point of water (273.16 K) is a fundamental fixed point in temperature scales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| equivalence point | In a precipitin reaction, the zone in which neither antibody nor antigen is in excess. See: precipitation. Synonym: equivalence point. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Trousseau's point | A painful point, in neuralgia, at the spinous process of the vertebra below which arises the offending nerve. Synonym: apophysary point, apophysial point. (05 Mar 2000) |
| exclamation point hair | <clinical sign> The type of dystrophic anagen hair found at margins of patches of alopecia areata. The bulb is absent. (21 Jun 2000) |
| J point | The point marking the end of the QRS complex and the beginning of the S or T wave in the electrocardiogram. Synonym: ST junction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| jugal point | A craniometric point at the union of the temporal and frontal processes of the zygomatic bone. Synonym: jugal point. (05 Mar 2000) |
| far point | That point in conjugate focus with the retina when the eye is not accommodating. Synonym: punctum remotum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| far point of convergence | The point to which the visual lines are directed when convergence is at rest. (05 Mar 2000) |
| far point of eye | <microscopy> For the normal eye, the far point is at infinity. The rays of light from an infinitely distant point source are parallel and can be focused with the accommodation muscles of the eye entirely relaxed. See: accommodation, near point of the eye. (05 Aug 1998) |
| zygomaxillary point | A craniometric point located externally at the lowest extent of the zygomaticomaxillary suture. Synonym: key ridge, zygomaxillary point. (05 Mar 2000) |
| flash point | The lowest temperature at which vapors of a liquid may be ignited by a flame. (05 Mar 2000) |
