| 설명 | 페스트균(Yersinia pestis)에 의한 급성 열성 전염병. 14세기 중기 전유럽에 대유행한 이래 흑사병(black death)이라고도 한다. 원래는 야생의 설치류(다람쥐-쥐-비버 등)의 돌림병이며 벼룩에 의하여 동물간에 유행하는데, 사람에 대한 감염원이 되는 것은 보통 밭다람쥐 등으로부터 벼룩이 감염시킨 시궁쥐(집쥐)-곰쥐 등이다. 이러한 보균동물이 있는 지방에는 풍토병적으로 존재하고 있고, 중국 동북부-중국 대륙의 오지, 몽골-중앙아시아(주로 러시아) 등은 그 전에 유행하여 보균동물이 잔류되어 있으므로 기근 등이 닥치면 유행할 가능성이 있는 것으로 간주된다. 또한 남아메리카 중부에서 북부, 아프리카 중부, 미얀마-이란-인도-베트남-캄보디아-인도네시아에서 최근 10년간에 유행한 기록이 있다. 이것은 증세가 격심하고 사망률도 높으며, 전염력이 강하기 때문에 법정전염병인 동시에 검역전염병으로 분류되어 있다. 환자로부터의 비말감염(환자가 재채기나 기침을 할 때 튀어나온 병원균에 의하여 감염됨) 또는 환자의 분비-배설물이 부착된 물품으로부터 기도감염도 있으나, 보통은 보균동물을 흡혈한 벼룩에 물려서 감염되는 경우가 많다. 발병되면 장기간의 면역을 얻는데 드물게 재발병하는 일도 있다. 일반증세는 갑자기 오한전율과 더불어 40℃ 전후의 고열을 내고 현기증-구토 등이 있으며 의식이 혼탁해진다. 잠복기는 2~5일이고, 순환기계가 강하게 침해받는다. |

| Pahvant Valley plague | <infectious disease, microbiology> A rare infection of rabbits and rodents caused by the bacteria Francisella tularensis. Francisella tularensis is found in many animals (rabbits, rodents) and may be transmitted by direct contact or via insect bite (ticks and deer-fly). Humans can also contract the illness via the direct contact with the infected animal carcass (break in the skin). The illness is characterised by an ulcerative lesion at the site of the inoculation with regional lymph node swelling, pneumonia, fever, chills, headache, muscle pains and joint stiffness. Risk factors include an exposure to rabbits or recent tick bite. A vaccine is available for high risk workers. Treatment is with streptomycin or tetracycline. Tularaemia is fatal in 5% of untreated cases and in less than 1% of treated cases. Incidence: less than 200 cases per year (USA). Origin: Gr. Haima = blood (18 Jul 2002) |

Also used figuratively. "The valley of the shadow of death." (Ps. Xxiii. 4) "Sweet interchange Of hill and valley, rivers, woods, and plains." (Milton) Deep and narrow valleys with abrupt sides are usually the results of erosion by water, and are called gorges, ravines, canons, gulches, etc. 2. The place of meeting of two slopes of a roof, which have their plates running in different directions, and form on the plan a reentrant angle. The depression formed by the meeting of two slopes on a flat roof. Valley board, a roof having one or more valleys. See Valley, 2, above. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| valley fever | A fungal infection caused by the fungus Coccidioides immitis. Exists in two forms: primary disease, which is a self-limited respiratory infection (requires no treatment) and a progressive form (diffuse and granulomatous), that can involve almost any part of the body. Approximately 60% of infections cause no symptoms and are identified only by skin testing. Immunocompromised patients (AIDS) are at greatest risk for disseminated disease. Symptoms include cough, anorexia, fever, weight loss and joint pains. Complications include pleural effusion and dissemination. There is a poor prognosis for disseminated disease. Treatment includes amphotericin B for lung infection. Itraconazole and fluconazole are also useful agents. (27 Sep 1997) |
| valley segment | That portion of a stream network with similar morphologies and governing geomorphic processes identified by valley bottom and sideslope geomorphic characteristics. (05 Dec 1998) |
