| 영문 | Parkinson disease | 한글 | 파킨슨병 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 나이든 사람에게 발생하는 신경계의 퇴행병이다. 주로 운동을 담당하는 중간뇌부위가 침범된다. 원인은 바이러스, 약물, 혹은 동맥경화증 등으로 알려진 경우도 있으나, 원인을 알 수 없는 경우가 많다. 증상은 가면얼굴, 쓰러질 것 같은 걸음걸이, 손떨림, 근육의 강직, 앞으로 기울어진 자세 등임. 치료는 특별한 것이 없으며, 대개 보존적 치료(완치를 목적으로 하지 않고 단지 환자의 생활을 보조해주는 정도의 치료)를 시행한다. 최근, 죽은 태아의 뇌를 이식하는 뇌 이식술에 의한 치료효과가 높다는 보고가 있다. |

| 영문 | endemic disease | 한글 | 풍토병 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 인간사회에 항상 존재하지만 특수한 기후나 토질로 인하여 특정지역에만 존재하는 사망률이 낮고, 임상적으로도 드물게 볼 수 있는 병. 특히 그 토지의 풍토-기후-생물-토양 등의 자연환경과 그 지방 주민의 풍속-습관-인습 등이 복잡하게 얽혀서 생긴 특수한 병을 가리킨다. 일반적으로 그 지방 주민의 사망률은 그다지 높지 않지만 근절되기 어려운 것이 특징이다. 지방병이라는 말은 어느 지방에 한정하여 볼 수 있는 병이라는 점에서는 같지만, 풍토환경과 밀접한 관계가 있다는 데서 보면 풍토병이라는 용어가 적절하다. 국내적으로는 쯔쯔가무시병, 야생토끼병, 렙토스피라증 등이 알려져 있고, 세계적으로는 말라리아, 황열, 페트스, 일본주혈흡충증 등이 알려져 있다. |

| pulmonary schistosomiasis | Pulmonary manifestations of infection with schistosoma, usually Schistosoma mansoni, occurring when schistosomals, which form in the skin from the cercariae which have entered from infected water, migrate via the blood stream to the lungs, en route to the gastrointestinal tract and the portal vein; symptoms are usually limited to cough.

| pulmonary siderosis | Pneumoconiosis caused by inhalation of iron dust. Synonym: pulmonary siderosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pulmonary sinuses | The space at the origin of the pulmonary trunk between the dilated wall of the vessel and each cusp of the pulmonic valve. Synonym: sinus trunci pulmonalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pulmonary sling | <radiology> Aberrant course of left pulmonary artery between trachea and oesophagus, may cause obstructive emphysema of the right lung if the right main stem bronchus is compressed (12 Dec 1998) |
| pulmonary stenosis | <cardiology> A congenital or acquired heart valve defect. The abnormal narrowing and ineffective opening of the pulmonic valve. Symptoms include cyanosis and difficulty breathing. Treatment is surgical in most cases of significant valvular stenosis. (27 Sep 1997) |
| pulmonary stretch receptors | Stretch receptors found in the bronchi and bronchioles. Pulmonary stretch receptors are sensors for a reflex which stops inspiration. In humans, the reflex is protective and is probably not activated during normal respiration. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pulmonary subvalvular stenosis | Stenosis of the conus arteriosus (infundibulum) with or without involvement of the pulmonary valve. It is usually associated with a defect in the interventricular septum. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pulmonary sulcus | The deep recess on either side of the vertebral column formed by the posterior sweep of the curvature of the ribs. Synonym: sulcus pulmonalis, pulmonary sulcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pulmonary surfactants | Lipoproteins in which the lipid moiety is based mainly on lecithin and other phospholipids. They may also contain small amounts of prostaglandins and other compounds. Composition is species dependent. They are secreted by the mitochondria of type II alveolar cells. Surfactants regulate the surface tension of the mucoid layer lining the alveoli. Absence of the surfactants in premature infants results in hyaline membrane disease and in adults in atelectasis. Synthetic pulmonary surfactants have also been prepared and are used therapeutically. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pulmonary surgical procedures | Surgery performed on the lung. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pulmonary transpiration | The passage of water vapor from the blood into the air via the respiratory tract. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pulmonary trunk | Origin, right ventricle of heart; distribution, it divides into the right pulmonary artery and the left pulmonary artery, which enter the corresponding lungs and branch along with the segmental bronchi. Synonym: truncus pulmonalis, arteria pulmonalis, pulmonary artery, venous artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pulmonary tuberculosis | Tuberculosis of the lungs. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pulmonary tularaemia | Tularaemia affecting the lungs; tularaemic pneumonia. Synonym: pulmonic tularaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pulmonary valve | <anatomy, cardiology> The heart valve that divides the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery. The pulmonic valve opens when the right ventricle contracts allowing blood to flow into the pulmonary artery. The pulmonic valve on closure prohibits the backwash of unoxygenated blood into the right ventricle. The pulmonic valve has 3 valve cusps. (27 Sep 1997) |
