Label	Id	Description
Shock, Cardiogenic	D012770	[Shock resulting from diminution of cardiac output in heart disease.]
Muscular Dystrophy, Facioscapulohumeral	D020391	[An autosomal dominant degenerative muscle disease characterized by slowly progressive weakness of the muscles of the face, upper-arm, and shoulder girdle. The onset of symptoms usually occurs in the first or second decade of life. Affected individuals usually present with impairment of upper extremity elevation. This tends to be followed by facial weakness, primarily involving the orbicularis oris and orbicularis oculi muscles. (Neuromuscul Disord 1997;7(1):55-62; Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1420)]
Substance Abuse, Intravenous	D015819	[Abuse, overuse, or misuse of a substance by its injection into a vein.]
Shoulder Dislocation	D012783	[Displacement of the HUMERUS from the SCAPULA.]
Iris Neoplasms	D015811	[Tumors of the iris characterized by increased pigmentation of melanocytes. Iris nevi are composed of proliferated melanocytes and are associated with neurofibromatosis and malignant melanoma of the choroid and ciliary body. Malignant melanoma of the iris often originates from preexisting nevi.]
Mushroom Poisoning	D009145	[Poisoning from ingestion of mushrooms, primarily from, but not restricted to, toxic varieties.]
Glaucoma, Angle-Closure	D015812	[A form of glaucoma in which the intraocular pressure increases because the angle of the anterior chamber is blocked and the aqueous humor cannot drain from the anterior chamber.]
Ocular Hypotension	D015814	[Abnormally low intraocular pressure often related to chronic inflammation (uveitis).]
Endophthalmitis	D009877	[Infectious condition of the internal eye., Suppurative inflammation of the tissues of the internal structures of the eye frequently associated with an infection.]
Eye Infections, Fungal	D015821	[Infection by a variety of fungi, usually through four possible mechanisms: superficial infection producing conjunctivitis, keratitis, or lacrimal obstruction; extension of infection from neighboring structures - skin, paranasal sinuses, nasopharynx; direct introduction during surgery or accidental penetrating trauma; or via the blood or lymphatic routes in patients with underlying mycoses.]
Prostatic Diseases	D011469	[Pathological processes involving the PROSTATE or its component tissues.]
Stroke, Lacunar	D059409	[Brain infarction that affects small subcortical vessels due to occlusion of a penetrating artery deep in the brain. It may lead to lacunar stroke., Stroke caused by lacunar infarction or other small vessel diseases of the brain. It features hemiparesis (see PARESIS), hemisensory, or hemisensory motor loss.]
Sialorrhea	D012798	[Increased salivary flow.]
Sialometaplasia, Necrotizing	D012797	[A benign, inflammatory, variably ulcerated, occasionally bilateral, self-healing lesion of the minor salivary glands that is often confused clinically and histologically with carcinoma.]
Pinguecula	D059407	[A yellowish thickened lesion on the conjunctiva near the CORNEA representing a benign degenerative change in the CONJUNCTIVA caused by the leakage and deposition of certain blood proteins through the permeable capillaries near the LIMBUS.]
Shy-Drager Syndrome	D012791	[A progressive neurodegenerative condition of the central and autonomic nervous systems characterized by atrophy of the preganglionic lateral horn neurons of the thoracic spinal cord. This disease is generally considered a clinical variant of MULTIPLE SYSTEM ATROPHY. Affected individuals present in the fifth or sixth decade with ORTHOSTASIS and bladder dysfunction; and later develop FECAL INCONTINENCE; anhidrosis; ATAXIA; IMPOTENCE; and alterations of tone suggestive of basal ganglia dysfunction. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p536)]
Shwartzman Phenomenon	D012790	[Hemorrhagic necrosis that was first demonstrated in rabbits with a two-step reaction, an initial local (intradermal) or general (intravenous) injection of a priming endotoxin (ENDOTOXINS) followed by a second intravenous endotoxin injection (provoking agent) 24 h later. The acute inflammation damages the small blood vessels. The following intravascular coagulation leads to capillary and venous THROMBOSIS and NECROSIS. Shwartzman phenomenon can also occur in other species with a single injection of a provoking agent, and during infections or pregnancy. Its susceptibility depends on the status of IMMUNE SYSTEM, coagulation, FIBRINOLYSIS, and blood flow.]
Mutism	D009155	[The inability to generate oral-verbal expression, despite normal comprehension of speech. This may be associated with BRAIN DISEASES or MENTAL DISORDERS. Organic mutism may be associated with damage to the FRONTAL LOBE; BRAIN STEM; THALAMUS; and CEREBELLUM. Selective mutism is a psychological condition that usually affects children characterized by continuous refusal to speak in social situations by a child who is able and willing to speak to selected persons. Kussmal aphasia refers to mutism in psychosis. (From Fortschr Neurol Psychiatr 1994; 62(9):337-44)]
Acanthamoeba Keratitis	D015823	[Infection of the cornea by an ameboid protozoan which may cause corneal ulceration leading to blindness.]
Langer-Giedion Syndrome	D015826	[Autosomal dominant disorder characterized by cone-shaped epiphyses in the hands and multiple cartilaginous exostoses. INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY and abnormalities of chromosome 8 are often present. The exostoses in this syndrome appear identical to those of hereditary multiple exostoses (EXOSTOSES, HEREDITARY MULTIPLE).]
