| uniform rate hypothesis | <biology> This states that any two evolving organismal lineages diverge from a common ancestor at a constant rate with respect to each other. (09 Oct 1997) |
|---|---|
| five year survival rate | The proportion of patients still alive five years after a diagnosis or form of treatment is completed. Usually applied to statistics of survival of cancer patients, since after five years, recurrences are much less likely to occur. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fixed-rate pacemaker | An artificial pacemaker that emits electrical stimuli at a constant frequency. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fixed rate pulse generator | A generator in which the rate of discharge is independent of the natural activity of the heart. Synonym: fixed rate pulse generator. (05 Mar 2000) |
| flow rate | The amount of water that moves through an area (usually pipe) in a given period of time. (05 Dec 1998) |
| foetal death rate | The number of foetal deaths divided by the sum of live births and foetal deaths occurring in the same population during the same time period. Synonym: stillbirth rate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| foetal heart rate | In the foetus, the number of heart beats per minute, normally 120 to 160. (05 Mar 2000) |
| 5-year relative survival rate | <statistics> The likelihood that a patient will not die from causes associated with his or her cancer for at least 5 years after diagnosis. This is the standard many professionals use when determining someone a survivor of cancer. (16 Dec 1997) |
| lethality rate | <statistics> The proportion of deaths in a population or to a specific number of the population. (18 Nov 1997) |

| acrylic resin tooth | A tooth made of acrylic resin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ankylosed tooth | <dentistry> Bony union of the radicular surface of a tooth to the surrounding alveolar bone in an area of previous partial root resorption. Extracapsular ankylosis, stiffness of a joint due to induration or heterotopic ossification of the surrounding tissues. Synonym: spurious ankylosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| apex of cusp of tooth | The tip of the peaklike projections from the crown of a tooth. Synonym: apex cuspidis dentis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| apical foramen of tooth | The opening at the apex of the root of a tooth that gives passage to the nerve and blood vessels. Synonym: foramen apicis dentis, apical dental foramen, root foramen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| baby tooth | A tooth of the first set of teeth, comprising 20 in all, that erupts between the mean ages of 6 and 28 months of life. Synonym: dens deciduus, baby tooth, deciduous dentition, dens lacteus, first dentition, milk tooth, primary dentition, primary tooth, temporary tooth. (05 Mar 2000) |
