All terms in NCIT

Label	Id	Description
High Density Lipoprotein	NCIT_C25186	[The smallest and densest lipoproteins, containing a high proportion of protein. They are synthesized in the liver as empty proteins and they pick up cholesterol and increase in size as they circulate through the bloodstream. Because HDL can remove cholesterol from the arteries, and transport it back to the liver for excretion, they are seen as "good" lipoproteins.]
Lipoprotein	NCIT_C20029	[An important class of serum proteins in which a spherical hydrophobic core of triglycerides or cholesterol esters surrounded by an amphipathic monolayer of phospholipids, cholesterol and apolipoproteins. Classified according to density: chylomicrons, large low density particles, very low density, low density and high density species. Important in lipid transport, especially cholesterol transport in the blood stream. Abnormalities in lipoprotein metabolism have been implicated in certain heart diseases.]
Serum Protein	NCIT_C17126	[Dissolved proteins of blood plasma. These mainly consist of albumins and globulins and include antibodies and blood-clotting proteins.]
Broca's Aphasia	NCIT_C34394	[Aphasia characterized by impairment of expressive language due to injury to the motor association cortex in the frontal lobe.]
SYNPO Gene	NCIT_C105953	[This gene is involved in both cell morphology and cell motility.]
Arthropod-Borne Hemorrhagic Fever	NCIT_C34395	[A group of viral illnesses that are vectored by arthropods, and that are characterized by increased susceptibility to bleeding diatheses.]
WHODAS 2.0 12-item Version Interviewer-administered - Walking a Long Distance	NCIT_C130910	[World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 12-item Version Interviewer-administered (WHODAS 2.0 12-item Version Interviewer-administered) In the past 30 days, how much difficulty did you have in: Walking a long distance such as a kilometre [or equivalent]?]
WHODAS 2.0 12-item Version Interviewer-administered Questionnaire Question	NCIT_C130300	[A question associated with the WHODAS 2.0 12-item Version Interviewer-administered questionnaire.]
SYNPO wt Allele	NCIT_C105954	[Human SYNPO wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 5q33.1 and is approximately 58 kb in length. This allele, which encodes synaptopodin protein, plays a role in actin-mediated cell motility and cell morphology.]
Arthropod-Borne Viral Infection	NCIT_C34396	[A viral infection that is transmitted by an arthropod.]
WHODAS 2.0 12-item Version Interviewer-administered - Washing Your Whole Body	NCIT_C130911	[World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 12-item Version Interviewer-administered (WHODAS 2.0 12-item Version Interviewer-administered) In the past 30 days, how much difficulty did you have in: Washing your whole body?]
Synaptopodin	NCIT_C105955	[Synaptopodin (929 aa, ~94 kDa) is encoded by the human SYNPO gene. This protein is involved in actin-mediated cell morphology and cell motility.]
TCF4 Gene	NCIT_C105956	[This gene plays a role in transcriptional regulation.]
Anthracosis	NCIT_C34390	[A chronic lung disorder characterized by deposition of coal dust in the lung parenchyma leading to the formation of black nodules and emphysema. It occurs in coal miners.]
TCF4 wt Allele	NCIT_C105957	[Human TCF4 wild-type allele is located 18q21.1 and is approximately 442 kb in length. This allele, which encodes transcription factor 4 protein, is involved in transcriptional regulation of immunoglobulin genes. Mutations in this gene are associated with Pitt-Hopkins syndrome.]
Aortic Arch Syndrome	NCIT_C34391	[A syndrome resulting from structural defects of the arteries that arise from the aortic arch. Signs and symptoms include weakness, dizziness, arm numbness, blurred vision and transient ischemic attacks.]
Transcription Factor 4	NCIT_C105958	[Transcription factor 4 (667 aa, ~71 kDa) is encoded by the human TCF4 gene. This protein plays a role in the regulation of immunoglobulin transcription.]
Excision Repair Cross-Complementing Family	NCIT_C105959	[A family of DNA repair proteins.]
Write	NCIT_C73994	[Communicate or express by means of letters or symbols written or imprinted on a surface to represent the sounds or words of a language; record data on a computer.]
WHODAS 2.0 12-item Version Interviewer-administered - Concentrating for Ten Minutes	NCIT_C130909	[World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 12-item Version Interviewer-administered (WHODAS 2.0 12-item Version Interviewer-administered) In the past 30 days, how much difficulty did you have in: Concentrating on doing something for ten minutes?]
