  2. Keloid - Wikipedia

    [citation needed] He called them cancroïde, later changing the name to chéloïde to avoid confusion with cancer. The word is derived from the Ancient Greek χηλή, chele, meaning "crab pincers", and the suffix -oid, meaning "like". In the 19th century it was known as the "Keloid of Alibert" as opposed to "Addison’s keloid" . [24]

  3. List of particles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_particles

    Atoms are the smallest neutral particles into which matter can be divided by chemical reactions. An atom consists of a small, heavy nucleus surrounded by a relatively large, light cloud of electrons. An atomic nucleus consists of 1 or more protons and 0 or more neutrons. Protons and neutrons are, in turn, made of quarks.

    The first known quasiparticle that behaves like a liquid [6] Electron quasiparticle: An electron as affected by the other forces and interactions in the solid: electron Electron hole (hole) A lack of electron in a valence band: electron, cation Exciton: A bound state of an electron and a hole (See also: biexciton) electron, hole Ferron

  5. Granuloma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granuloma

    Examples of this use of the term granuloma are the lesions known as vocal cord granuloma (known as contact granuloma), pyogenic granuloma, and intubation granuloma, all of which are examples of granulation tissue, not granulomas. "Pulmonary hyalinizing granuloma" is a lesion characterized by keloid-like fibrosis in the lung and is not ...

  6. Colloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colloid

    There are two principal ways to prepare colloids: [20] Dispersion of large particles or droplets to the colloidal dimensions by milling, spraying, or application of shear (e.g., shaking, mixing, or high shear mixing). Condensation of small dissolved molecules into larger colloidal particles by precipitation, condensation, or redox reactions.

    Anyway, the most common type of keloid scar that I'd think would be encountered (though I'm not a ER trauma person..) would be the the type of small scar that forms over a burn or deep cut. (like mine, that was a stupid but small table-saw accident - about an inch long by 1/8-1/4 inch wide, but not "vertically hypertrophic" or even really ...

    The analysis ruled out the possibility that the effect was caused by conventional particles. [3] The two pentaquark states were both observed decaying strongly to J/ψp, hence must have a valence quark content of two up quarks, a down quark, a charm quark, and an anti-charm quark (u u d c c), making them charmonium-pentaquarks.

    These viral particles, also known as virions, consist of two or three parts: (i) the genetic material (genome) made from either DNA or RNA, long molecules that carry genetic information; (ii) a protein coat called the capsid, which surrounds and protects the genetic material; and in some cases (iii) an envelope of lipids that surrounds the ...
