All terms in NCIT

Label	Id	Description
Previous Pain Treatment Assessment	NCIT_C21107	[The extent to which previous pain treatments were successful and the treatment regimens used, including narcotics, alternative/complimentary treatments, etc.]
Pain Assessment	NCIT_C20992	[The evaluation of pain complaints. Measurements should be objective on the part of the practitioner, based on subjective information from the patient. Measurements may also be indirect, by such assessments as respiratory rate and effort, withdrawal, guarding, or other appropriate assessment techniques.]
M Phase Substage	NCIT_C21108	[Any one of the major conceptual subdivisions, based on characteristic cytological and biochemical events, during M Phase of the eukaryotic cell cycle that occur in the order Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase and lead toward nuclear division.]
Retired Concept 2010	NCIT_C95421
Supportive Therapy	NCIT_C21109	[Supportive therapy may provide a patient with friendship, encouragement, practical advice such as access to community resources or how to develop a more active social life, vocational counseling, suggestions for minimizing friction with family members, and, above all, hope that the life of the patient may be improved. Depending upon the severity of the symptoms, supportive therapy may begin with a healthcare professional helping the individual to recall the events and emotions that occurred before the acute episode, so that he or she may be able to watch for and recognize approaching signs of trouble. In all situations, supportive therapy involves the teaching of such life skills as managing medication, learning to socialize, handling finances, and getting a job. Ideally, in-patient programs should be linked as much as possible with appropriate community-based programs, to provide a continuing pattern of care. (From Health Canada)]
Cell Division Process	NCIT_C21102	[A cellular mechanism directly involved in the process of cell division.]
Hyaluronan Mediated Motility Receptor	NCIT_C21103	[Hyaluronan mediated motility receptor (724 aa, ~84 kDa) is encoded by the human HMMR gene. This protein is involved in the modulation of cell motility.]
Receptor	NCIT_C18106	[A protein located on the cell surface, or in the cytoplasm, that binds to a specific signaling factor, such as a hormone, antigen, or neurotransmitter, causing a conformational and functional change in the receptor molecule. The ligand-bound receptor then alters its interaction with target molecules, which leads to changes in cellular physiology through modification of the activity of one or more signal transduction pathways.]
Pain Origin	NCIT_C21104	[The bodily region or diagnosis from which pain is felt.]
Sympathetic Block	NCIT_C21110	[Neural blockade of the sympathetic nerve roots.]
Inflammation Process	NCIT_C21111	[Any cell or physiological process concerned with the complex series of local events that involve increased infiltration and activity of leukocytes and an increased blood supply to a site of injury or disease. (NCI)]
KITLG Gene	NCIT_C21112	[This gene plays a pleiotropic role in several cellular processes, all of which are involved in cellular migration.]
Melanogenesis	NCIT_C20628	[Formation of melanin]
Gametogenesis	NCIT_C16599	[Gametogenesis is the phase of sexual reproduction in which certain cells of a female or male individual (parent) are transformed into specialized reproductive cells (gametes) that will initiate development of a progeny individual (offspring) upon fertilization.]
Non-Neoplastic Axillary Disorder	NCIT_C35747	[A non-neoplastic disorder that affects the structures of the axilla. Representative examples include axillary lymphadenitis and axillary abscess.]
Axillary Disorder	NCIT_C35746	[A non-neoplastic or neoplastic disorder that affects the structures of the axilla. Representative examples include axillary lymphadenitis, axillary lipoma, and metastatic carcinoma to the axillary lymph nodes.]
Metastatic Malignant Neoplasm in the Axilla	NCIT_C35748	[A malignant neoplasm that has spread to the structures of the axilla from another anatomic site.]
Metastatic Malignant Neoplasm in the Thoracic Cavity	NCIT_C155919	[A malignant neoplasm that has spread to the thoracic cavity from another anatomic site.]
Thoracic Neoplasm	NCIT_C3406	[A benign or malignant, primary or metastatic neoplasm involving the tissues of the thorax.]
Sternum	NCIT_C12793	[The long, flat bone connecting with the cartilages of the first seven ribs and the clavicle.]
