| centrifugal | 1. Denoting the direction of the force pulling an object outward (away) from an axis of rotation. 2. Sometimes, by analogy, extended to describe any movement away from a centre. Compare: eccentric. Origin: L. Centrum, centre, + fugio, to flee (05 Mar 2000) |

| centrifugal casting | Casting molten metal into a mold by spinning the metal from a crucible at the end of a revolving arm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| centrifugal current | The direction of current flow in a nerve when the cathode is placed peripheral to the anode, in contrast to ascending current. Synonym: centrifugal current. (05 Mar 2000) |
| centrifugal fast analyzer | An automatic spectrophotometer that uses centrifugal force to mix samples and reagents, and propels the reactants at high speed about a detector that makes multiple absorbance readings. (05 Mar 2000) |
| centrifugal force | <physics> The apparent force which seems to pull an object outward when the object is spun around in a circle. In reality, it is the centripetal force which keeps the object rotating around in the circle when the object's inertia makes the object inclined to move in a straight tangential line away from the circle. The centrifugal force does not really exist and, in a strictly physical sense, the term is a misnomer. However, the term is useful to biologists and chemists who are using centrifuges. (13 Nov 1997) |
| centrifugal nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A nerve which transmits impulses from the brain and spinal cord to a muscle or organ. (27 Sep 1997) |
| partial face-sparing lipodystrophy | A syndrome beginning at puberty that resembles total lipodystrophy but is inherited as an autosomal or X-linked dominant form. (05 Mar 2000) |
| membranous lipodystrophy | A rare metabolic disease in which bone marrow fat cells are transformed into thick convoluted PAS-staining membranes enclosing weakly osmophilic material; leads to progressive cystic resorption of limb bones and dementia with sudanophilic leukodystrophy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| congenital total lipodystrophy | Lipodystrophy characterised by almost complete lack of subcutaneous fat, accelerated rate of growth and skeletal development during the first 3 to 4 years of life, muscular hypertrophy, cardiac enlargement, hepatosplenomegaly, hypertrichosis, renal enlargement, hypertriglyceridemia, and hypermetabolism; both autosomal dominant and X-linked varieties exist. (05 Mar 2000) |
| progressive lipodystrophy | A condition characterised by a complete loss of the subcutaneous fat of the upper part of the torso, the arms, neck, and face, sometimes with an increase of fat in the tissues about and below the pelvis. Synonym: Barraquer's disease, lipodystrophia progessiva superior, partial lipoatrophy, Simons' disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| insulin lipodystrophy | Dystrophic atrophy of subcutaneous tissues in diabetics at the site of frequent injections of insulin. Synonym: insulin lipoatrophy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intestinal lipodystrophy | <gastroenterology> A rare disorder of intestinal malabsorption that occurs as the result of the intestine. Treatment is with antibiotics. (27 Sep 1997) |
| familial lipodystrophy | Autosomal dominant; partial lip associated with multifacial hypoplasin, retarded bone age, and hypotichosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lipodystrophy | 1. <biochemistry> Any disturbance of fat metabolism. 2. A group of conditions due to defective metabolism of fat, resulting in the absence of subcutaneous fat, which may be congenital or acquired and partial or total. Synonym: lipoatrophy, lipodystrophia. (18 Nov 1997) |
