| acceptable daily intake | <pharmacology> This is an estimate of the amount of a substance in food that can be ingested daily over a lifetime by humans without appreciable health risk. The concept of the acceptable daily intake has been developed principally by who and FAO and is relevant to chemicals such as additives to foods, residues of pesticides and veterinary drugs in foods. Acceptable daily intakes are derived from laboratory toxicity data, and from human experiences of such chemicals when this is available, and incorporate a safety factor. The acceptable daily intake is thus an estimate of the amount of a substance in food that can be ingested over a lifetime by humans without significant risk to health (for contaminants in food and drinking water, tolerable intakes - daily or weekly - are used). See: tolerable daily intake. (15 Jan 1998) |

| activities of daily living | The things we normally do in daily living including any daily activity we perform for self-care (such as feeding ourselves, bathing, dressing, grooming), work, homemaking, and leisure. The ability or inability to perform ADLs can be used as a very practical measure of ability/disability in many disorders. (12 Dec 1998) |
| activities of daily living scale | A scale to score physical activity and its limitations, based on answers to simple questions about mobility, self-care, grooming, etc; widely used in geriatrics, rheumatology, etc. (05 Mar 2000) |
| daily dose | The total amount of a remedy that is to be taken within 24 hours. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tolerable daily intake | TDIs are applied to chemical contaminants in food and drinking water. The presence of contaminants is unwanted and they have no useful function, differing from additives and residues where there is or was deliberate use resulting in their presence. TDIs are calculated on the basis of laboratory toxicity data with the application of uncertainty factors. A TDI is therefore an estimate of the amount of a substance (contaminant) in food or drinking water that can be ingested daily over a lifetime without a significant health risk. (09 Oct 1997) |
| Broca's pouch | A pear-shaped encapsulated collection of connective tissue and fat in each labium majus. Synonym: Broca's pouch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| paracystic pouch | A peritoneal depression formed by the reflection of the peritoneum from the lateral pelvic wall onto the roof of the bladder; in the female, it is the lateral portion of the uterovesical pouch, separated from the pararectal pouch by the broad ligament. Synonym: fossa paravesicalis, paracystic pouch, paravesical pouch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Rathke's pouch | A tubular outgrowth of ectoderm from the stomodeum of the embryo; it grows dorsad toward the infundibular process of the diencephalon, around which it forms a cup-like mass, giving rise to the pars distalis and pars juxtaneuralis of the hypophysis. Synonym: craniopharyngeal canal, hypophyseal pouch, Rathke's diverticulum, Rathke's pocket, Rathke's pouch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Rathke's pouch tumour | <oncology, tumour> A form of primary brain tumour which develops in the pituitary gland. These tumours often secrete increased quantities of pituitary hormones (for example growth hormone) which can result in conditions such as gigantism and acromegaly. They are often benign and rare and comprise less than 5% of childhood brain tumours. Other symptoms include vision changes, headache and weight gain. Treatment often includes a combination of surgery and radiation therapy. (27 Sep 1997) |
| pararectal pouch | A peritoneal depression on either side of the rectum formed by peritoneal (sacrogenital) folds passing from the posterolateral pelvic wall to the central pelvic viscera. The fossa is a lateral extension of the male rectovesical pouch or the female rectouterine pouch. Synonym: pararectal pouch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| paravesical pouch | A peritoneal depression formed by the reflection of the peritoneum from the lateral pelvic wall onto the roof of the bladder; in the female, it is the lateral portion of the uterovesical pouch, separated from the pararectal pouch by the broad ligament. Synonym: fossa paravesicalis, paracystic pouch, paravesical pouch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rectouterine pouch | <anatomy> A pocket formed by the deflection of the peritoneum from the rectum to the uterus. Synonym: excavatio rectouterina, cavum douglasi, cul-de-sac, Douglas' cul-de-sac, Douglas' pouch, pouch of Douglas, rectovaginouterine pouch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rectovaginouterine pouch | <anatomy> A pocket formed by the deflection of the peritoneum from the rectum to the uterus. Synonym: excavatio rectouterina, cavum douglasi, cul-de-sac, Douglas' cul-de-sac, Douglas' pouch, pouch of Douglas, rectovaginouterine pouch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rectovesical pouch | A pocket formed by the deflection of the peritoneum from the rectum to the bladder in the male. Synonym: excavatio rectovesicalis, Proust's space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vesicouterine pouch | uterovesical pouch |
