All terms in NCIT

Label	Id	Description
Lipooxygenase Inhibitor	NCIT_C1322	[Any substance that inhibits lipooxygenase, an enzyme that catalyses the dioxygenation of polyunsaturated fatty acids in lipids. Lipooxygenase is involved in the metabolism of eicosanoids (such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes) and its inhibition can suppress hypersensitivity reactions.]
Phytofluene	NCIT_C126903	[A 40 carbon dietary fatty acid that is an intermediate in carotenoid biosynthesis in plants and is derived from the desaturation of double bonds in phytoene with potential to absorb ultraviolet radiation (UV), and potential antioxidant, chemopreventive and anti-inflammatory activities. Following ingestion and digestion, phytofluene may accumulate in the skin where it may prevent UV-mediated sun damage and carcinogenesis. In addition, phytofluene may prevent carcinogenesis by protecting cells against DNA damage through its free radical scavenger effects.]
Literacy	NCIT_C49162	[The ability to read and write.]
Retinoblastoma cNX TNM Finding v7	NCIT_C88770	[Retinoblastoma in which the regional lymph nodes cannot be assessed. (from AJCC 7th Ed.)]
Surgical Procedure	NCIT_C15329	[A diagnostic or treatment procedure performed by manual and/or instrumental means, often involving an incision and the removal or replacement of a diseased organ or tissue; of or relating to or involving or used in surgery or requiring or amenable to treatment by surgery.]
Retinoblastoma cN0 TNM Finding v7	NCIT_C88771	[Retinoblastoma with no regional lymph node involvement. (from AJCC 7th Ed.)]
Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors	NCIT_C49164	[Standard parameters to be used when documenting response of solid tumors to treatment; a set of published rules that define when cancer patients improve ("respond"), stay the same ("stable"), or worsen ("progression") during treatments. (from www.recist.com)]
Retinoblastoma cN1 TNM Finding v7	NCIT_C88772	[Retinoblastoma with regional lymph node involvement (preauricular, cervical, submandibular). (from AJCC 7th Ed.)]
Retinoblastoma cN2 TNM Finding v7	NCIT_C88773	[Retinoblastoma with distal lymph node involvement. (from AJCC 7th Ed.)]
