| nutritional haemosiderosis | A disease seen in black South Africans that results from ingestion of iron in foodstuffs prepared in iron vessels; excessive absorption of iron affects the liver. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|
| haemosiderosis | Conditions in which there is a generalised increase in the iron stores of body tissues, particularly of liver and the reticuloendothelial system, without demonstrable tissue damage. The name refers to the presence of stainable iron in the tissue in the form of haemosiderin. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| haemosiderosis / haemochromatosis | <radiology> Iron deposition due to abnormal metabolism or iron overload, primary abnormal iron metabolism, secondary alcoholic cirrhosis, multiple blood transfusions (e.g., Hb SS, thalassaemia) Findings: osteoporosis, chondrocalcinosis (calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease), arthropathy, resembles calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease arthropathy, distinctive feature: BEAK-like osteophytes at MCP jts, mottled increased density of liver and spleen, Definitions: haemosiderosis: haemosiderin deposition within cells, haemochromatosis: haemosiderin within cells AND interstitium (12 Dec 1998) |
| pulmonary haemosiderosis | Haemosiderosis usually associated with mitral stenosis and marked by an accumulation of macrophages loaded with haemosiderin within the alveoli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| idiopathic pulmonary haemosiderosis | <chest medicine> A rare, sporadic, fatal, mostly in children with an equal sex distribution. The condition also occurs in adults where there is a sex difference (M:F = 2:1). The patients present with recurrent attacks of pulmonary haemorrhage, acute phase: bat-wing alveolar infiltrates, clears rapidly, chronic findings: haemosiderosis, pulmonary fibrosis, cor pulmonale. (12 Dec 1998) |
| chick nutritional dermatosis | Dermatosis in chicks, with eruptions about the eyes, mouth, and feet; responds to pantothenic acid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nutritional amblyopia | Amblyopia resulting from lack of vitamin B-complex constituents. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nutritional anaemia | Any anaemia resulting from a dietary deficiency of materials essential to red blood cell formation, e.g., iron, vitamins (especially folic acid), protein. Synonym: deficiency anaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nutritional and metabolic diseases | A collective term for nutritional disorders (result of poor assimilation or utilization of food) and metabolic disorders (result of poor metabolism or inherited enzyme abnormality). (12 Dec 1998) |
| nutritional cirrhosis | Cirrhosis occurring in persons or animals with general or specific dietary deficiencies; methionine and cystine deficiency may produce changes of cirrhosis in animals, but it is uncertain whether malnutrition in humans leads to cirrhosis or only to reversible fatty infiltration of the liver. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nutritional dropsy | Oedema due to hypoproteinaemia secondary to malnutrition. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nutritional encephalomalacia of chicks | A disease of young chicks caused by vitamin E deficiency. Synonym: crazy chick disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nutritional energy | The dynamics of nutrition or metabolism. Synonym: nutritional energy. Origin: tropho-+ G. Dynamis, power (05 Mar 2000) |
| nutritional macrocytic anaemia | Macrocytic, megaloblastic anaemia due to deficiency of either folate or vitamin B12. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nutritional marasmus | Extreme weakness and wasting secondary to malnutrition. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nutritional oedema | A form of swelling caused by insufficient protein intake resulting in hypoproteinaemia and low plasma oncotic pressure. (05 Mar 2000) |
