All terms in NCIT

Label	Id	Description
Regional Lymph Node Dissection	NCIT_C48935	[Surgical removal of the lymph nodes located in a particular anatomic region. This procedure is commonly performed as a component of cancer staging.]
CDR3 Spectratyping	NCIT_C74541	[A laboratory procedure that analyzes the genetic profile of the T-cell receptor variable complementary determining region 3 (CDR3) for an individual. The genetic sequence for CDR3 is amplified using the polymerase chain reaction and specific primers.]
Erodium cicutarium	NCIT_C74542
Liver (Food)	NCIT_C74543
Food	NCIT_C62695	[A group of materials of either plant, animal or artificial origin containing essential body nutrients that can be ingested by an organism to produce energy, stimulate growth, and maintain life.]
Codeine Phosphate	NCIT_C74548	[The phosphate salt of codeine, a naturally occurring phenanthrene alkaloid and opioid agonist with analgesic, antidiarrheal and antitussive activities. Codeine mimics the actions of endogenous opioids by binding to the opioid receptors at many sites within the central nervous system (CNS). Stimulation of mu-subtype opioid receptors results in a decrease in the release of nociceptive neurotransmitters such as substance P, GABA, dopamine, acetylcholine and noradrenaline; in addition, the codeine metabolite morphine induces opening of G-protein-coupled inwardly rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels and blocks the opening of N-type voltage-gated calcium channels, resulting in hyperpolarization and reduced neuronal excitability. Stimulation of gut mu-subtype opioid receptors results in a reduction in intestinal motility and delayed intestinal transit times. Antitussive activity is mediated through codeine's action on the cough center in the medulla.]
Opiate	NCIT_C1657	[Functionally related to the poppy (Papaver somniferum) alkaloid morphine, natural or synthetic Opiates have widespread effects in the central nervous system, and on smooth muscle, due to activation of specific delta, mu, and kappa opiate receptors (each controlling different brain functions). Opiates include natural ingredients of the poppy and their derivatives - opium, morphine, codeine, and heroin. Morphine preparations are used as analgesic, sedative, or anxiolytic agent, but are also abused as street drugs. (NCI04)]
Taurosteine	NCIT_C74549
CDISC SDTM Fitzpatrick Skin Classification Terminology	NCIT_C74560	[Terminology codelist used for the Fitzpatrick Skin Classification Scheme within the Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium Study Data Tabulation Model.]
Unused Subset Concept	NCIT_C103175	[A terminology codelist concept that is not currently in use.]
CDISC SDTM Skin Type Terminology	NCIT_C74561	[Terminology codelist used for Skin Type within the Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium Study Data Tabulation Model.]
Consequence	NCIT_C74555	[The result of an action.]
Dasatinib Anhydrous	NCIT_C74556	[An orally bioavailable synthetic small molecule-inhibitor of SRC-family protein-tyrosine kinases. Dasatinib binds to and inhibits the growth-promoting activities of these kinases. Apparently because of its less stringent binding affinity for the BCR-ABL kinase, dasatinib has been shown to overcome the resistance to imatinib of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cells harboring BCR-ABL kinase domain point mutations. SRC-family protein-tyrosine kinases interact with variety of cell-surface receptors and participate in intracellular signal transduction pathways; tumorigenic forms can occur through altered regulation or expression of the endogenous protein and by way of virally-encoded kinase genes.]
SRC Family Tyrosine Kinase	NCIT_C17893	[The SRC family tyrosine kinases are a class of non-receptor protein-tyrosine kinases that exhibit amino acid sequence similarity with SRC and participate in signal transduction pathways in a variety of hematopoietic cells.]
Diethylstilbestrol Dipropionate	NCIT_C74557	[The dipropionate ester of a synthetic, nonsteroidal form of estrogen. A well-known teratogen and carcinogen, diethylstilbestrol inhibits the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, thereby blocking the testicular synthesis of testosterone, lowering plasma testosterone, and inducing a chemical castration.]
Non-Steroidal Estrogen	NCIT_C2182	[Estrogens that are not steroids, but have a structural configuration resembling steroids and may mimic steroidal estrogen effect or bind to estrogen receptors.]
CDISC SDTM Category For Disposition Event Terminology	NCIT_C74558	[Terminology codelist used for Disposition Event within the Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium Study Data Tabulation Model.]
Tasuldine	NCIT_C74551
Numeric Conversion	NCIT_C74552	[The process by which a value is assigned to represent another set of values for ease of evaluation within a particular process.]
Calculation	NCIT_C54125	[The procedure or activity of determining something by mathematical or logical methods.]
