| Forms and Records Control Records Control | Coding | Forms Control | Control, Forms | Control, Records | Controls, Forms | Controls, Records | Forms Controls | Records Controls A management function in which standards and guidelines are developed for the developing, maintaining, and handling of forms and records. | |
| Forms [Publication Type] Forms (PT) Works consisting of or containing a substantial number of blank forms. | |
| Polystyrenes Polystyrol Polymerized forms of styrene used as a biocompatible material, especially in dentistry. They are thermoplastic and are used as insulators, for injection molding and casting, as sheets, plates, rods, rigid forms and beads. | |
| Hepatophyta Liverworts | Jungermanniae | Marchantiae A plant division. They are simple plants that lack vascular tissue and possess rudimentary rootlike organs (rhizoids). Like MOSSES, liverworts have alternation of generations between haploid gamete-bearing forms (gametophytes) and diploid spore-bearing forms (sporophytes). | |
| Propidium Propidium Diiodide | Propidium Iodide | Diiodide, Propidium | Iodide, Propidium Quaternary ammonium analog of ethidium; an intercalating dye with a specific affinity to certain forms of DNA and, used as diiodide, to separate them in density gradients; also forms fluorescent complexes with cholinesterase which it inhibits. | |
| Disinfectants Substances used on inanimate objects that destroy harmful microorganisms or inhibit their activity. Disinfectants are classed as complete, destroying spores as well as vegetative forms of microorganisms, or incomplete, destroying only vegetative forms of the organisms. They are distinguished from antiseptics, which are local anti-infective agents used on humans and other animals. (From Hawley's Condensed Chemical Dictionary, 11th ed) | |
| Myositis, Inclusion Body Inclusion Body Myositis | Myopathy, Inclusion Body, Sporadic | Inclusion Body Myopathy, Sporadic | Inclusion Body Myositis, Sporadic | Myositis, Inclusion Body, Sporadic | Sporadic Inclusion Body Myositis | Inclusion Body Myositides Progressive myopathies characterized by the presence of inclusion bodies on muscle biopsy. Sporadic and hereditary forms have been described. The sporadic form is an acquired, adult-onset inflammatory vacuolar myopathy affecting proximal and distal muscles. Familial forms usually begin in childhood and lack inflammatory changes. Both forms feature intracytoplasmic and intranuclear inclusions in muscle tissue. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp1409-10) | |
| Keratoacanthoma Keratoacanthomas A benign, non-neoplastic, usually self-limiting epithelial lesion closely resembling squamous cell carcinoma clinically and histopathologically. It occurs in solitary, multiple, and eruptive forms. The solitary and multiple forms occur on sunlight exposed areas and are identical histologically; they affect primarily white males. The eruptive form usually involves both sexes and appears as a generalized papular eruption. | |
| Adrenal Hyperplasia, Congenital Adrenogenital Syndrome | Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia | Hyperplasia, Congenital Adrenal | Adrenal Hyperplasias, Congenital | Adrenogenital Syndromes | Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasias | Hyperplasias, Congenital Adrenal A group of syndromes caused by inherited defects in cortisol (HYDROCORTISONE) and/or ALDOSTERONE biosynthesis. There are several types including simple virilizing forms (adrenogenital syndrome), salt-wasting forms, and virilizing hypertension forms depending on the enzyme of defects. Defects in STEROID 21-HYDROXYLASE are most common. Other defects occur in STEROID 11-BETA-HYDROXYLASE, STEROID 17-ALPHA-HYDROXYLASE, or 3-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3-HYDROXYSTEROID DEHYDROGENASES). | |
| Glycogen Phosphorylase Phosphorylase ab | Phosphorylase, Glycogen An enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of GLYCOGEN in animals by releasing glucose-1-phosphate from the terminal alpha-1,4-glycosidic bond. This enzyme exists in two forms: an active phosphorylated form ( PHOSPHORYLASE A) and an inactive un-phosphorylated form (PHOSPHORYLASE B). Both a and b forms of phosphorylase exist as homodimers. In mammals, the major isozymes of glycogen phosphorylase are found in muscle, liver and brain tissue. | |
