| haemolytic uraemic syndrome | <haematology, syndrome> A pathologic condition with involves the rupture (haemolysis) of red blood cells, subsequent anaemia, low platelet count and kidney failure. It is a syndrome of haemolytic anaemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute renal failure, with pathological finding of thrombotic microangiopathy in kidney and renal cortical necrosis. See: haemolytic anaemia. (12 Dec 1998) |

| uraemic | <medicine> Of or pertaining to uraemia; as, uraemic convulsions. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| uraemic breath | Characteristic odour of the breath in patients with chronic renal failure, variously described as "fishy," "ammoniacal," and "fetid," which is indicative of the systemic accumulation of volatile metabolites, usually excreted in the urine; dimethylamine and trimethylamine have been identified and correlated with the classic fishy odour. (05 Mar 2000) |
| uraemic colitis | Colitis characterised by haemorrhages in the mucosa, occurring in renal failure, possibly owing to the irritant effect of ammonia formed by breakdown of increased urea in the intestinal secretions. (05 Mar 2000) |
| uraemic coma | A metabolic encephalopathy caused by renal failure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| uraemic frost | Powdery deposits on the skin, especially the face, of urea and uric acid salts due to excretion of nitrogenous compounds in the sweat; seen in severe uraemia. Synonym: uridrosis crystallina. (05 Mar 2000) |
| uraemic lung | Perihilar oedema of the lung associated with renal failure and hypertension; the peripheral parts of the lung remain clear. Synonym: uraemic pneumonia, uraemic pneumonitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| uraemic pericarditis | Fibrinous pericarditis seen in chronic renal failure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| uraemic pneumonia | Terminal infective pneumonia occurring in a patient with uraemia. See: uraemic lung (05 Mar 2000) |
| uraemic pneumonitis | Perihilar oedema of the lung associated with renal failure and hypertension; the peripheral parts of the lung remain clear. Synonym: uraemic pneumonia, uraemic pneumonitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acute demyelinating polyneuropathy | <neurology> A neurologic condition. Synonym: Guillain-Barre syndrome. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (27 Sep 1997) |
| acute inflammatory polyneuropathy | <neurology, syndrome> Acute infective polyneuritis that results in a form of peripheral neuropathy with temporary loss of movement and sensation due to inflammation of multiple nerves and loss of myelin. The exact cause is unknown but has been associated with an abnormal immune response to viral infection, particularly cytomegalovirus infection, in which there is cell-mediated immunity to a component of myelin. The disease may be autoimmune in origin and complete recovery can take up to six months. Synonym: Guillain-Barre syndrome (12 Jul 2000) |
| alcoholic polyneuropathy | <neurology> A disorder that occurs secondary to the damage to nerve cells from habitual alcohol abuse. The effects of alcoholic polyneuropathy may be due in part to the direct toxic effect alcohol has on nervous tissue in combination with specific nutritional deficiencies (for example B1 or thiamin deficiency and B12 deficiency). Common symptoms include sensory changes, numbness, tingling, muscle weakness, muscle cramps, heat intolerance, impotence, difficulty urinating, swallowing difficulty, speech impairment, diarrhoea and constipation. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (27 Sep 1997) |
| arsenical polyneuropathy | An axon loss polyneuropathy that results from subacute or chronic arsenic poisoning; almost always preceded by gastrointestinal symptoms; one of the heavy metal neuropathies. (05 Mar 2000) |
| axonal polyneuropathy | A type of polyneuropathy in which axon degeneration is the sole/predominant feature; many aetiologies, particularly toxic and metabolic; on nerve conduction studies, affects amplitudes of the responses, but does not cause conduction slowing or block. Synonym: axonal polyneuropathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
