The paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamus (PVN, PVA, or PVH) is a nucleus in the hypothalamus, that lies next to the third ventricle.Many of its neurons project to the posterior pituitary where they secrete oxytocin, and a smaller amount of vasopressin.
This traditional list does not accord strictly with human thalamic anatomy. Nuclear groups of the thalamus include: . anterior nuclear group [1] (anteroventral, [2] anterodorsal, [3] anteromedial [4])
Tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) is a non-malignant tumor defined histologically as inclusions of “osteoclast-like” multinucleated giant cells, hemosiderin, and macrophages. [1]
The ventral posterolateral nucleus (VPL) is one of the subdivisions of the ventral posterior nucleus in the ventral nuclear group of the thalamus. [1] It relays sensory information from the second-order neurons of the neospinothalamic tract and medial lemniscus (of the dorsal column-medial lemniscus pathway) which synapse with the third-order neurons in the nucleus.
Abbreviation Meaning V: ventilation: VA: visual acuity: VAC: vincristine, actinomycin D, and cyclophosphamide (chemotherapy regimen) VAC: vacuum-assisted closure (of a wound)
The plaque reduction neutralization test is used to quantify the titer of neutralizing antibody for a virus. [1] [2]The serum sample or solution of antibody to be tested is diluted and mixed with a viral suspension.
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is the implantation of the aortic valve of the heart through the blood vessels without actual removal of the native valve (as opposed to the aortic valve replacement by open heart surgery, surgical aortic valve replacement, AVR).
Isotherms of an ideal gas for different temperatures. The curved lines are rectangular hyperbolae of the form y = a/x. They represent the relationship between pressure (on the vertical axis) and volume (on the horizontal axis) for an ideal gas at different temperatures: lines that are farther away from the origin (that is, lines that are nearer to the top right-hand corner of the diagram ...
