Past Seven Days How Much Frequent Urination Interfered with Usual or Daily Activities	NCIT_C132214	[A question about how much an individual's frequent urination interfered with their usual or daily activities over the past seven days.]
Almond Oil	NCIT_C107259	[The oil extracted from the seed fruits of Prunus amygdalus. Almond oil is typically used as a skin emollient and for massage.]
Past Seven Days How Much Urinary Incontinence Interfered with Usual or Daily Activities	NCIT_C132215	[A question about how much an individual's loss of control of urine (leakage) interfered with their usual or daily activities over the past seven days.]
Past Seven Days Any Unusual Vaginal Discharge	NCIT_C132216	[A question about whether or not an individual had any unusual vaginal discharge over the past seven days.]
Past Seven Days Any Irregular Menstrual Period	NCIT_C132217	[A question about whether or not an individual had any irregular menstral periods.]
Stilbene Aldehyde	NCIT_C29440	[An organic derivative of the unsaturated hydrocarbon stilbene, an aromatic alkene that is the nucleus of diethylstilbestrol and related compounds. Stilbene aldehyde is used in the chemical synthesis of estrogenic agents as well as for the manufacture of research reagents such as trans-stilbene oxide, a substrate for glutathione S-transferase. Estrogenic compounds containing the stilbene nucleus are known to be carcinogenic in humans and animals. (NCI04)]
Past Seven Days Missed Expected Menstrual Period	NCIT_C132218	[A question about whether or not an individual missed an expected menstrual period.]
Salicylic Acid/Sulfur	NCIT_C29441	[A combination preparation of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug salicylic acid and the inorganic compound sulfur with keratolytic activity. Salicylic acid and sulfur loosen and shed dead cells, thereby preventing skin pores from clogging up. This combination treats acne, dandruff and several other skin and scalp disorders.]
Past Seven Days Took Too Long to Have Orgasm	NCIT_C132219	[A question about whether or not an individual felt that it took too long to have an orgasm or climax.]
Artificial Saliva	NCIT_C29442	[An aerosol spray and oral moisturizer containing artificial saliva used to relieve xerostomia. The artificial saliva coats mucosa and moisturizes oral tissue, thereby relieving dry mouth and throat.]
Salmeterol	NCIT_C29443	[A highly selective, long-acting beta-2 adrenergic agonist with bronchodilatory activity. Salmeterol's benzene moiety resembles the structure of catecholamines, and occupies the active site of beta-2 adrenergic receptor, while the long, lipophilic side chain of salmeterol, binds to the so called 'exosite' near the beta-2 adrenergic receptors. The binding at the exosite allows the active portion of the molecule to remain at the receptor site and continually engage and disengage with the receptor, therefore providing a long duration of action. This agent stimulates intracellular adenyl cyclase to catalyze the conversion of adenosine triphosphate to cyclic-3',5'-adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). Increased cAMP levels result in relaxation of bronchiolar smooth muscle, bronchodilation and increased bronchial airflow.]
Saquinavir	NCIT_C29444	[A peptidomimetic inhibitor of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) protease.]
Camphor/Menthol-based Formulation	NCIT_C29445	[A combination preparation containing camphor and menthol with anti-pruritic activity. Camphor, a terpenoid extracted from camphor laurel (Cinnamonum camphora) tree, can be absorbed readily through the skin and produces a cooling feeling similar to that of menthol. This formulation is used to relieve itching and cools irritated skin due to sunburn, dry and itchy skin, poison ivy, poison oak, insect bites, minor cuts, burns and abrasions.]
Scopolamine Hydrobromide	NCIT_C29446	[The hydrobromide salt form of scopolamine, a tropane alkaloid derived from plants of the nightshade family (Solanaceae), specifically Hyoscyamus niger and Atropa belladonna, with anticholinergic, antiemetic and antivertigo properties. Structurally similar to acetylcholine, scopolamine antagonizes acetylcholine activity mediated by muscarinic receptors located on structures innervated by postganglionic cholinergic nerves as well as on smooth muscles that respond to acetylcholine but lack cholinergic innervation. The agent is used to cause mydriasis, cycloplegia, to control the secretion of saliva and gastric acid, to slow gut motility, and prevent vomiting.]
Senna Fruit	NCIT_C29447	[The fruit of Cassia acutifolia and Cassia angustifolia (Cassia) with laxative and purgative activities. The active ingredients in senna fruit include the hydroxyanthracene glycosides sennosides A and B (rhein dianthrones) and sennosides C and D (rhein aloe-emodin heterodianthrones). Sennosides irritate the bowel lining and stimulate the bowel muscular coat, particularly in the colon, resulting in accelerated bowel transit and evacuation.]
Fruit	NCIT_C71972
Sennosides	NCIT_C29448	[Anthraquinone glycosides found in senna plant, usually referring to the sennosides A and B, with laxative activity. Sennosides act on and irritate the lining of the intestine wall, thereby causing increased intestinal muscle contractions leading to vigorous bowel movement.]
Worst Severity Past Seven Days Body Odor	NCIT_C132210	[A question about an individual's observation of the worst severity they have experienced related to body odor over the past seven days.]
Senokot	NCIT_C29449	[A standardized, concentrated preparation, by Purdue, containing the anthraquinone glycosides sennosides extracted from senna leaves with laxative activity. Sennosides act on and irritate the lining of the intestine wall, thereby causing increased intestinal muscle contractions leading to vigorous bowel movement.]
