  2. Microangiopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microangiopathy

    Microangiopathy (also known as microvascular disease, small vessel disease (SVD) or microvascular dysfunction) is a disease of the microvessels, small blood vessels in the microcirculation. [1] It can be contrasted to macroangiopathies such as atherosclerosis , where large and medium-sized arteries (e.g., aorta , carotid and coronary arteries ...

  3. Van der Waerden test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_der_Waerden_test

    Named after the Dutch mathematician Bartel Leendert van der Waerden, the Van der Waerden test is a statistical test that k population distribution functions are equal. The Van der Waerden test converts the ranks from a standard Kruskal-Wallis test to quantiles of the standard normal distribution (details given below).

  4. Cerebroretinal microangiopathy with calcifications and cysts

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebroretinal...

    Typical childhood-onset cerebroretinal microangiopathy with calcifications and cysts is caused by compound heterozygous mutations in the conserved telomere maintenance component 1 (CTC1) gene [10] located in chromosome 17p.31. [7] [8] A late-onset phenotype without abnormal eye findings from a CTC1 mutation has been reported. [8]

  5. Medical calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_calculator

    Medical calculators arose because modern medicine makes frequent use of scores and indices that put physicians' memory and calculation skills to the test. [2] The advent of personal computers, the Internet and Web, and more recently personal digital assistants (PDAs) have formed an environment conducive to their development, spread and use.

  6. National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Institutes_of...

    The NIHSS is composed of 11 items, each of which scores a specific ability between a 0 and 4. For each item, a score of 0 typically indicates normal function in that specific ability, while a higher score is indicative of some level of impairment. [1] The individual scores from each item are summed in order to calculate a patient's total NIHSS ...

  7. Standard normal table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_normal_table

    Since probability tables cannot be printed for every normal distribution, as there are an infinite variety of normal distributions, it is common practice to convert a normal to a standard normal (known as a z-score) and then use the standard normal table to find probabilities. [2]

  8. Normal score - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_score

    The term normal score is used with two different meanings in statistics. One of them relates to creating a single value which can be treated as if it had arisen from a standard normal distribution (zero mean, unit variance). The second one relates to assigning alternative values to data points within a dataset, with the broad intention of ...

  9. Thrombotic microangiopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrombotic_microangiopathy

    Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a pathology that results in thrombosis in capillaries and arterioles, due to an endothelial injury. [1] It may be seen in association with thrombocytopenia, anemia, purpura and kidney failure. The classic TMAs are hemolytic uremic syndrome and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura.
