| GPEE | generator of pathologically enhanced excitation |
| anomalous atrioventricular excitation | Ectopic atrial beat conducted to the ventricle. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| pre-excitation, mahaim-type | A form of pre-excitation characterised by a normal pr interval and a long qrs interval with a delta wave. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pre-excitation syndromes | Conditions characterised by activation of the whole or some part of the ventricle by the atrial impulse earlier than would be expected if the impulse reached the ventricle by way of the normal specific conduction system only. (12 Dec 1998) |
| excitation | <physics, psychology> An act of irritation or stimulation or of responding to a stimulus, the addition of energy, as the excitation of a molecule by absorption of photons. Origin: L. Excitatio, citare = to call (18 Nov 1997) |
| excitation contraction coupling | <physiology> Name given to the chain of processes coupling excitation of a muscle by the arrival of a nervous impulse at the motor end plate to the contraction of the filaments of the sarcomere. The crucial link is the release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum and the analogy is often drawn between this and stimulus secretion coupling, that also involves calcium release into the cytoplasm. (18 Nov 1997) |
| excitation radiation | <radiobiology> Line radiation (at characteristic frequencies / wavelengths) as a result of the promotion of electrons or other constituent particles of a larger system to excited states, and the subsequent de-excitation of these states by radiative transitions. (09 Oct 1997) |
| excitation spectrum | Fluorescence produced over a range of wavelengths of the exciting light. (05 Mar 2000) |
| excitation wave | A wave of altered electrical conditions that is propagated along a muscle fibre preparatory to its contraction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| law of excitation | A motor nerve responds, not to the absolute value, but to the alteration of value from moment to moment, of the electric current; i.e., rate of change of intensity of the current is a factor in determining its effectiveness. Synonym: Du Bois-Reymond's law. (05 Mar 2000) |
| law of polar excitation | A given segment of a nerve is irritated by the development of catelectrotonus and the disappearance of anelectrotonus, but the reverse does not hold; i.e., excitation occurs at the cathode when the circuit is closed and at the anode when it is opened. Synonym: Pfluger's law. (05 Mar 2000) |
| selective angiography | <procedure, radiology> Angiography in which visualization is improved by concentrating the contrast medium in the region to be studied by injection through a catheter positioned in a regional artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| selective grinding | <dentistry> The modification of the occlusal forms of teeth by grinding according to a plan or by grinding at selected places marked by articulating ribbon or paper. (05 Mar 2000) |
| selective hypoaldosteronism | <endocrinology> Isolated hypoaldosteronism, aldosterone deficiency without a concomitant deficiency of glucocorticoid hormones. (05 Mar 2000) |
| selective immunoglobulin A deficiency | <immunology> An inherited disorder in which there is a markedly reduced or absent IgA, resulting in immature IgA-bearing B-cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| selective inhibition | <chemistry> Inhibitor that occupies the active site of an enzyme or the binding site of a receptor and prevents the normal substrate or ligand from binding. at sufficiently high concentration of the normal ligand inhibition is lost: the Km is altered by the competitive inhibitor, but the Vmax remains the same.
