Analgesia, Obstetrical
|
D016362 |
[The elimination of PAIN, without the loss of CONSCIOUSNESS, during OBSTETRIC LABOR; OBSTETRIC DELIVERY; or the POSTPARTUM PERIOD, usually through the administration of ANALGESICS.
] |
Analgesia, Patient-Controlled
|
D016058 |
[Relief of PAIN, without loss of CONSCIOUSNESS, through ANALGESIC AGENTS administered by the patients. It has been used successfully to control POSTOPERATIVE PAIN, during OBSTETRIC LABOR, after BURNS, and in TERMINAL CARE. The choice of agent, dose, and lockout interval greatly influence effectiveness. The potential for overdose can be minimized by combining small bolus doses with a mandatory interval between successive doses (lockout interval).

Analgesics
|
D000700 |
[Compounds capable of relieving pain without the loss of CONSCIOUSNESS.
, Compounds that show activity in animal models of human PAIN such as tail flick and hot plate assays.
] |
Analgesics, Non-Narcotic
|
D018712 |
[A subclass of analgesic agents that typically do not bind to OPIOID RECEPTORS and are not addictive. Many non-narcotic analgesics are offered as NONPRESCRIPTION DRUGS.
] |
Analgesics, Opioid
|
D000701 |
[Compounds with activity like OPIATE ALKALOIDS, acting at OPIOID RECEPTORS. Properties include induction of ANALGESIA or NARCOSIS.
] |
Analgesics, Short-Acting
|
D059846 |
[Pain-alleviating drugs characterized by rapid action time.
] |
Analog-Digital Conversion
|
D000703 |
[The process of converting analog data to discrete, digital form.
] |
Analysis of Variance
|
D000704 |
[A statistical technique that isolates and assesses the contributions of categorical independent variables to variation in the mean of a continuous dependent variable.
] |
Analytic Hierarchy Process
|
D000083062 |
[A technique or tool used to analyze choices for complex decisions, by organizing them, for analysis, into a tree structure.
] |
Analytic Sample Preparation Methods
|
D053000 |
[Use of various chemical separation and extraction methods, such as SOLID PHASE EXTRACTION; CHROMATOGRAPHY; and SUPERCRITICAL FLUID EXTRACTION; to prepare samples for analytical measurement of components.

Ananas
|
D031230 |
[A plant genus of the family BROMELIACEAE known for the edible fruit that is the source of BROMELAINS.
] |
Anaphase
|
D000705 |
[The phase of cell nucleus division following METAPHASE, in which the CHROMATIDS separate and migrate to opposite poles of the spindle.
] |
Anaphase-Promoting Complex-Cyclosome
|
D064173 |
[An E3 ubiquitin ligase primarily involved in regulation of the metaphase-to-anaphase transition during MITOSIS through ubiquitination of specific CELL CYCLE PROTEINS. Enzyme activity is tightly regulated through subunits and cofactors, which modulate activation, inhibition, and substrate specificity. The anaphase-promoting complex, or APC-C, is also involved in tissue differentiation in the PLACENTA, CRYSTALLINE LENS, and SKELETAL MUSCLE, and in regulation of postmitotic NEURONAL PLASTICITY and excitability.
] |
Anaphylatoxins
|
D000706 |
[Serum peptides derived from certain cleaved COMPLEMENT PROTEINS during COMPLEMENT ACTIVATION. They induce smooth MUSCLE CONTRACTION; mast cell HISTAMINE RELEASE; PLATELET AGGREGATION; and act as mediators of the local inflammatory process. The order of anaphylatoxin activity from the strongest to the weakest is C5a, C3a, C4a, and C5a des-arginine.
] |
Anaphylaxis
|
D000707 |
[An acute hypersensitivity reaction due to exposure to a previously encountered ANTIGEN. The reaction may include rapidly progressing URTICARIA, respiratory distress, vascular collapse, systemic SHOCK, and death.
] |
Anaplasia
|
D000708 |
[Loss of structural differentiation and useful function of neoplastic cells.
] |
Anaplasma
|
D000709 |
[A genus of gram-negative bacteria whose organisms are obligate parasites of vertebrates. Species are transmitted by arthropod vectors with the host range limited to ruminants. Anaplasma marginale is the most pathogenic species and is the causative agent of severe bovine anaplasmosis.
] |
Anaplasma centrale
|
D042321 |
[A species of gram-negative bacteria causing mild ANAPLASMOSIS in CATTLE. It also can infect SHEEP and GOATS. It is transmitted by TICKS.
] |
Anaplasma marginale
|
D042322 |
[A species of gram-negative bacteria and causative agent of severe bovine ANAPLASMOSIS. It is the most pathogenic of the ANAPLASMA species.
] |
Anaplasma ovis
|
D042323 |
[A species of gram-negative bacteria producing mild to severe ANAPLASMOSIS in SHEEP and GOATS, and mild or inapparent infections in DEER and CATTLE.
