Label	Id	Description
Refractive Errors	D012030	[Deviations from the average or standard indices of refraction of the eye through its dioptric or refractive apparatus.]
Lateral Medullary Syndrome	D014854	[INFARCTION of the dorsolateral aspect of MEDULLA OBLONGATA in the BRAIN STEM. It is caused by occlusion of the VERTEBRAL ARTERY and/or the posterior inferior cerebellar artery. Clinical manifestations vary with the size of infarction, but may include loss of pain and temperature sensation in the ipsilateral face and contralateral body below the chin; ipsilateral HORNER SYNDROME; ipsilateral ATAXIA; DYSARTHRIA; VERTIGO; nausea, hiccup; dysphagia; and VOCAL CORD PARALYSIS. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p801)]
Brain Stem Infarctions	D020526	[Infarctions that occur in the BRAIN STEM which is comprised of the MIDBRAIN; PONS; and MEDULLA OBLONGATA. There are several named syndromes characterized by their distinctive clinical manifestations and specific sites of ischemic injury.]
Chromosome Deletion	D002872	[Actual loss of portion of a chromosome.]
Monosomy	D009006	[The condition in which one chromosome of a pair is missing. In a normally diploid cell it is represented symbolically as 2N-1.]
Pericoronitis	D010497	[Inflammation of the gingiva surrounding the crown of a tooth.]
Gingival Diseases	D005882	[Diseases involving the GINGIVA.]
Chromosome Fragility	D002873	[Susceptibility of chromosomes to breakage leading to translocation; CHROMOSOME INVERSION; SEQUENCE DELETION; or other CHROMOSOME BREAKAGE related aberrations.]
Chromosomal Instability	D043171	[An increased tendency to acquire CHROMOSOME ABERRATIONS when various processes involved in chromosome replication, repair, or segregation are dysfunctional.]
Rotator Cuff Injuries	D000070636	[Injuries to the ROTATOR CUFF of the shoulder joint., Rupture of the tendons in the ROTATOR CUFF of the shoulder joint due to injury.]
Shoulder Injuries	D000070599	[Injuries involving the SHOULDERS.]
Pericarditis, Tuberculous	D010495	[INFLAMMATION of the sac surrounding the heart (PERICARDIUM) due to MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS infection. Pericarditis can lead to swelling (PERICARDIAL EFFUSION), compression of the heart (CARDIAC TAMPONADE), and preventing normal beating of the heart.]
Tuberculosis, Cardiovascular	D014381	[Pathological conditions of the CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM caused by infection of MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS. Tuberculosis involvement may include the HEART; the BLOOD VESSELS; or the PERICARDIUM.]
Pericarditis	D010493	[Inflammation of the PERICARDIUM from various origins, such as infection, neoplasm, autoimmune process, injuries, or drug-induced. Pericarditis usually leads to PERICARDIAL EFFUSION, or CONSTRICTIVE PERICARDITIS., Inflammation of both the PERICARDIUM and the PLEURA.]
Glaucoma, Open-Angle	D005902	[Glaucoma in which the angle of the anterior chamber is open and the trabecular meshwork does not encroach on the base of the iris.]
Pericarditis, Constrictive	D010494	[Inflammation of the PERICARDIUM that is characterized by the fibrous scarring and adhesion of both serous layers, the VISCERAL PERICARDIUM and the PARIETAL PERICARDIUM leading to the loss of pericardial cavity. The thickened pericardium severely restricts cardiac filling. Clinical signs include FATIGUE, muscle wasting, and WEIGHT LOSS.]
Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency	D054078	[Autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the mevalonate kinase gene. Because of the mutations cholesterol biosynthesis is disrupted and MEVALONIC ACID accumulates. It is characterized by a range of symptoms, including dysmorphic FACIES, psychomotor retardation, CATARACT, hepatosplenomegaly, CEREBELLAR ATAXIA, elevated IMMUNOGLOBULIN D, and recurrent febrile crises with FEVER; LYMPHADENOPATHY; ARTHRALGIA; EDEMA; and rash.]
Hypergammaglobulinemia	D006942	[An excess of GAMMA-GLOBULINS in the serum due to chronic infections or PARAPROTEINEMIAS.]
Pericardial Effusion	D010490	[Fluid accumulation within the PERICARDIUM. Serous effusions are associated with pericardial diseases. Hemopericardium is associated with trauma. Lipid-containing effusion (chylopericardium) results from leakage of THORACIC DUCT. Severe cases can lead to CARDIAC TAMPONADE.]
Glioblastoma	D005909	[A malignant form of astrocytoma histologically characterized by pleomorphism of cells, nuclear atypia, microhemorrhage, and necrosis. They may arise in any region of the central nervous system, with a predilection for the cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia, and commissural pathways. Clinical presentation most frequently occurs in the fifth or sixth decade of life with focal neurologic signs or seizures.]
