  2. Hypocycloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypocycloid

    Nasir al-Din al-Tusi was the first to describe these hypocycloids and their applications to high-speed printing. [4] [5] If k is a rational number, say k = p/q expressed in simplest terms, then the curve has p cusps. If k is an irrational number, then the curve never closes, and fills the space between the larger circle and a circle of radius R ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fungal_infection

    [1] [7] Systemic fungal infections are more serious and include cryptococcosis, histoplasmosis, pneumocystis pneumonia, aspergillosis and mucormycosis. [3] Signs and symptoms range widely.

  4. Epicycloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epicycloid

    The red curve is an epicycloid traced as the small circle (radius r = 1) rolls around the outside of the large circle (radius R = 3).. In geometry, an epicycloid (also called hypercycloid) [1] is a plane curve produced by tracing the path of a chosen point on the circumference of a circle—called an epicycle—which rolls without slipping around a fixed circle.

  6. Subclinical infection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subclinical_infection

    Subclinical infections can occur in both humans and animals. [2] Depending on the pathogen, which can be a virus or intestinal parasite, the host may be infectious and able to transmit the pathogen without ever developing symptoms; [3] [4] such a host is called an asymptomatic carrier. [3]

  7. Leukocyte extravasation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leukocyte_extravasation

    Neutrophils extravasate from blood vessels to the site of tissue injury or infection during the innate immune response.. In immunology, leukocyte extravasation (also commonly known as leukocyte adhesion cascade or diapedesis – the passage of cells through the intact vessel wall) is the movement of leukocytes (white blood cells) out of the circulatory system (extravasation) and towards the ...

  9. Vaginal yeast infection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaginal_yeast_infection

    Vaginal yeast infections are due to excessive growth of Candida. [1] These yeast are normally present in the vagina in small numbers. [1] Vaginal yeast infections are typically caused by the yeast species Candida albicans. Candida albicans is a common fungus often harbored in the mouth, digestive tract, or vagina without causing adverse ...
