*** ICD-10-CA ( used for morbidity classification in Canada ).

Some countries have adapted the international standard, such as the " ICD-10-AM " published in Australia in 1998 ( also used in New Zealand ), and the " ICD-10-CA " introduced in Canada in 2000.

ICD-10-CA applies beyond acute hospital care, and includes conditions and situations that are not diseases but represent risk factors to health, such as occupational and environmental factors, lifestyle and psycho-social circumstances.

Muscle weakness is now recognized as an uncommon though serious complication of steroid therapy, with most of the synthetic adrenal corticosteroids in clinical use.

He showed convincingly that anxiety is a learned ( conditioned ) reaction and is the basis of experimental and clinical neuroses and assumed, therefore, that the neuronal changes which underlie the neuroses are functional and reversible.

Although we are still far from a complete understanding of these problems, as a first approximation, it is suggested that alterations in the hypothalamic balance with consequent changes in the hypothalamic-cortical discharges account for major changes in behavior seen in various moods and states of emotions in man and beast under physiological circumstances, in experimental and clinical neurosis, and as the result of psychopharmacological agents.

Then, too, the utmost clinical flexibility is necessary in judiciously combining carefully timed family-oriented home visits, single and group office interviews, and appropriate telephone follow-up calls, if the worker is to be genuinely accessible and if the predicted unhealthy outcome is to be actually averted in accordance with the principles of preventive intervention.

My aim in mentioning this factor obviously is not to give license to `` wild therapy '' but rather to encourage us to use the time-honored clinical casework skills we already possess, and to use them with greater confidence, precision, and professional pride.

Intermarriage, which is generally regarded as a threat to Jewish survival, was regarded not with horror or apprehension but with a kind of mild, clinical disapproval.

Abraham Lincoln suffered from " melancholy ", a condition which now is referred to as clinical depression.

Ataxia is a non-specific clinical manifestation implying dysfunction of the parts of the nervous system that coordinate movement, such as the cerebellum.

An undifferentiated arthritis is an arthritis that does not fit into well-known clinical disease categories, possibly being an early stage of a definite rheumatic disease.

To predict clinical outcome, the antimicrobial activity of an antibacterial is usually combined with its pharmacokinetic profile, and several pharmacological parameters are used as markers of drug efficacy.

The majority of studies indicate antibiotics do not interfere with contraceptive pills, such as clinical studies that suggest the failure rate of contraceptive pills caused by antibiotics is very low ( about 1 %).

Unlike mainstream medicine, CAM often lacks or has only limited experimental and clinical study ; however, scientific investigation of CAM is beginning to address this knowledge gap.

A systematic 2003 review of controlled clinical trials related to the Alexander Technique found two reputable studies suggesting the Alexander Technique is effective in reducing the disability of patients suffering from Parkinson ’ s disease and improving pain behaviour and disability in patients with back pain, and concluded that the evidence supporting the effectiveness of the Alexander Technique is encouraging but not convincing.

Inert placebos can have significant antidepressant effects, and so to establish a substance as an " antidepressant " in a clinical trial it is necessary to show superior efficacy to placebo.

Analytical chemistry plays an increasingly important role in the pharmaceutical industry where, aside from QA, it is used in discovery of new drug candidates and in clinical applications where understanding the interactions between the drug and the patient are critical.

However, there is limited evidence that mistletoe's effects on the immune system help the body fight cancer .... At present, the use of mistletoe cannot be recommended outside the context of well-designed clinical trials.

The use of a maximum dose of ACE inhibitors in such patients ( including for prevention of diabetic nephropathy, congestive heart failure, prophylaxis of cardiovascular events ) is justified, because it improves clinical outcomes, independent of the blood pressure-lowering effect of ACE inhibitors.

This has led to decreased use of captopril in clinical setting, although it is still used in scintigraphy of the kidney.

Captopril is also the only ACE inhibitor which is capable of passing through the blood – brain barrier, although the significance of this characteristic has not been shown to have any positive clinical effects.

Gepirone ( Ariza, Variza ) is also in clinical development.

In music an " answer " ( also known as countersubject ) is the technical name in counterpoint for the repetition or modification by one part or instrument of a theme proposed by another.

Non-standard amino acids that are found in proteins are formed by post-translational modification, which is modification after translation during protein synthesis.

Another example is the formation of hypusine in the translation initiation factor EIF5A, through modification of a lysine residue.

In the United States, only eastern New England speakers took up this modification, although even there it is becoming increasingly rare.

If Acorn had thought to include this small modification in the original Electron design it is likely the machine would have had a much greater impact as it would have nearly doubled the amount of motion possible in games and saved modes 0 – 3 ( including the only 16 colour mode ) from being nearly useless due to contended memory timings.

Applications could not directly address video memory in this mode without modification, so it was incompatible with most games, although there is no inherent reason why a game could not be written to function in shadow mode.

A discussion of every disease caused by modification of the various apoptotic pathways would be impractical, but the concept overlying each one is the same: the normal functioning of the pathway has been disrupted in such a way as to impair the ability of the cell to undergo normal apoptosis.

It is widely believed that activity-dependent modification of synapses is the brain's primary mechanism for learning and memory.

Bodybuilding is a form of physical exercise and body modification involving intensive muscle hypertrophy.

Another mechanism is the modification of surface geometry.

Given that many journeys are for relatively short distances, there is considerable scope to replace car use with walking or cycling, though in many settings this may require some infrastructure modification, particularly to attract the less experienced and confident.

The Environmental Modification Convention ( ENMOD ), formally the Convention on the Prohibition of Military or Any Other Hostile Use of Environmental Modification Techniques is an international treaty prohibiting the military or other hostile use of environmental modification techniques.

The Convention bans weather warfare, which is the use of weather modification techniques for the purposes of inducing damage or destruction.

It is convenient to divide the impact process conceptually into three distinct stages: ( 1 ) initial contact and compression, ( 2 ) excavation, ( 3 ) modification and collapse.

In practice, there is overlap between the three processes with, for example, the excavation of the crater continuing in some regions while modification and collapse is already underway in others.

Above a certain threshold size, which varies with planetary gravity, the collapse and modification of the transient cavity is much more extensive, and the resulting structure is called a complex crater.

A popular modification is the Combo – an Italian beef sandwich with the addition of an Italian sausage.

Counter-Strike is a tactical first-person shooter video game developed by Valve Corporation which originated from a Half-Life modification by Minh " Gooseman " Le and Jess " Cliffe " Cliffe.

The current crest, featuring a ceremonial lion rampant regardant holding a staff, is a modification of the one introduced in the early 1950s.

Third, a variant of this conjugation trick, which is sometimes preferable because it requires no modification of the data values, involves swapping real and imaginary parts ( which can be done on a computer simply by modifying pointers ).

The small modification, " is a sibling of, or is the same person as ", is an equivalence relation.
