  2. Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_dimensioning_and...

    GD&T can more accurately define the dimensional requirements for a part, allowing over 50% more tolerance zone than coordinate (or linear) dimensioning in some cases. Proper application of GD&T will ensure that the part defined on the drawing has the desired form, fit (within limits) and function with the largest possible tolerances.

  3. Datum reference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datum_reference

    A typical datum reference frame is made up of three planes. For example, the three planes could be one "face side" and two "datum edges". These three planes are marked A, B and C, where A is the face side, B is the first datum edge, and C is the second datum edge. In this case, the datum reference frame is A/B/C.

  4. Obstructive lung disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obstructive_lung_disease

    Obstructive lung disease is a category of respiratory disease characterized by airway obstruction.Many obstructive diseases of the lung result from narrowing (obstruction) of the smaller bronchi and larger bronchioles, often because of excessive contraction of the smooth muscle itself.

  5. Occupational asthma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupational_asthma

    Removal from exposure may improve lung function when compared to continued exposure. Removal from exposure may improve symptoms and lung function more than reduction of exposure among patients exposed to low molecular weight agents, such as isocyanates, diisocyanates, plicatic acid, metals and anhydrides. Two studies reported an increase of job ...

    Video-assisted thoracoscopic lung biopsy is the most definitive technique, but transbronchial biopsy has a yield of over 50% and can also be effective. [ 82 ] [ 83 ] The safety of the latter procedure in patients with diffuse cystic disease and the profusion of cystic change that predicts an informative biopsy are incompletely understood, however.

    The GD&T symbol for MMC is a circled M. (See also LMC and RFS.) A given geometric tolerance may be defined in relation to a certain FoS datum being at LMC or at MMC. MOD, MoD: Ministry of Defence [U.K. and others] See also DOD. MOP, MoP: measurement over pins: threads, splines, gears (external, male) (synonymous with MOW, measurement over wires ...

  8. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idiopathic_pulmonary_fibrosis

    It is a type of chronic pulmonary fibrosis characterized by a progressive and irreversible decline in lung function. [6] [3] [4] The tissue in the lungs becomes thick and stiff, which affects the tissue that surrounds the air sacs in the lungs. [7] Symptoms typically include gradual onset of shortness of breath and a dry cough. [1]

  9. Exhaled nitric oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhaled_nitric_oxide

    Clinical trials have looked at whether tailoring asthma therapy based on eNO values is better than conventional care, in which therapy is gauged by symptoms and the results of lung function tests. [8] [9] [10] To date, the results in both adults and children have been modest and this technique can not be universally recommended.
