All terms in NCIT

Label	Id	Description
Recurrent Malignant Head and Neck Neoplasm	NCIT_C152077	[The reemergence of a malignant head and neck neoplasm after a period of remission.]
Malignant Salivary Gland Neoplasm	NCIT_C3811	[A primary or metastatic malignant neoplasm that affects the major or minor salivary glands. Representative examples include carcinoma, lymphoma, and sarcoma.]
Localized Malignant Gallbladder Neoplasm	NCIT_C35676	[A malignant neoplasm that arises from the gallbladder and it has not spread to other anatomic sites.]
Localized Malignant Neoplasm	NCIT_C8576	[A malignant neoplasm which is confined to a specific anatomic site and has not spread to other sites.]
Malignant Gallbladder Neoplasm	NCIT_C7481	[A primary or metastatic malignant neoplasm that affects the gallbladder. Representative examples include carcinoma, lymphoma, melanoma, and sarcoma.]
Phobia of Driving	NCIT_C35670	[An overwhelming, irrational, and persistent fear of operating a motor vehicle.]
Specific Phobia	NCIT_C35284	[An anxiety disorder characterized by an intense, irrational fear cued by the presence or anticipation of a specific object or situation. Exposure to the phobic stimulus immediately provokes an anxiety response. In adults, the specific phobia is recognized as excessive or unreasonable.]
Bursa Injury	NCIT_C35671	[Trauma to a bursa.]
Connective and Soft Tissue Injury	NCIT_C98904	[Damage inflicted on the soft tissues and their supporting structures as the direct or indirect result of an external force, with or without disruption of structural continuity.]
Posterolateral Myocardial Infarction by ECG Finding	NCIT_C35672	[An electrocardiographic finding of an injury in leads corresponding to the anatomic region of the posterolateral wall of the heart.]
H-Wave Therapy	NCIT_C21029	[A non-invasive form of electroanalgesia produces a direct, localized effect on the conduction of underlying peripheral nerves. It is often used for dental analgesia, treatment of acute musculoskeletal injuries, postoperative pain, local analgesia, and in treatment of diabetic patients with peripheral neuropathic pain. (from White, Li, and Chiu)]
Peripheral Nerve Stimulation	NCIT_C21025	[A minimally invasive form of electroanalgesia often used in neuropathic pain. For best effect, the stimulation is applied proximally to the site of the nerve lesion. (from White, Li, and Chiu)]
Peripheral Electronic Nerve Stimulation	NCIT_C21026	[A minimally invasive form of electroanalgesia involving stimulation of the dermatomal bands proximal to the affected area. It is often used in the treatment of intractable chronic lower back pain, cancer pain, and other painful disorders. (from White, Li, and Chiu)]
Percutaneous Neuromodulation Therapy	NCIT_C21027	[A minimally invasive form of electroanalgesia, similar to PENS but using deeper needles depths, that is used to treat intractable chronic lower back pain, cancer pain, and other painful disorders. (from White, Li, and Chiu)]
Transcutaneous Acupoint Electrical Stimulation	NCIT_C21028	[A non-invasive form of TENS where the gel pads are placed on acupoints and stimulation is alternated between low-intensity/high frequency and high-intensity/low frequency (dense disperse). (from White, Li, and Chiu)]
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation	NCIT_C21032	[A non-invasive form of electroanalgesia that uses conductive gel pads to transmit electrical energy from an external stimulator to peripheral nerves. There are two forms: low-intensity/high frequency and high-intensity/low frequency (dense disperse). The method of action is suspected to involve release of endogenous opioids. It is often used for peripheral neuropathic pain. (from White, Li, and Chiu)]
ITGAL Gene	NCIT_C21033	[This gene plays a role in leukocyte intercellular adhesion.]
Receptor Signaling	NCIT_C18992	[An intercellular process that involves a cellular receptor binding to a cognate ligand and results in a specific cellular response.]
Signal Transduction	NCIT_C17133	[A cellular process that involves a chemical or mechanical stimulus and results in a specific cellular response. This process is a central feature of a broad variety of physiologic responses.]
Heterodimerization	NCIT_C28513	[Heterodimerization involves a biophysical interaction between two dissimilar biological molecules or subunits, such as between two proteins. The interaction is often mediated by a biophysical interaction between one or more specific domains within each subunit and, typically, significantly influences the function of each subunit.]
