English

Subject field(s)
  • Cancers and Oncology
  • Blood
CONT

In chronic leukemia, the cells can mature partly but not completely. These cells may look fairly normal, but they generally do not fight infection as well as normal white blood cells do. They also live longer, build up, and crowd out normal cells. Chronic leukemias tend to progress over a longer period of time, and most people can live for many years. But chronic leukemias are generally harder to cure than acute leukemias.

La leucémie aiguë évolue rapidement en l’absence de traitement, alors que la leucémie chronique se développe plus lentement que la forme aiguë.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Cancers and Oncology
  • Lymphatic System
CONT

Acute lymphocytic leukemia(ALL) develops when the DNA of a stem cell in the bone marrow changes. The change is acquired, which means that it is not present at birth. ALL develops and progresses quickly. ALL occurs when the bone marrow makes too many abnormal lymphoblasts(immature lymphocytes). These immature cells(called blasts or leukemia cells) do not develop into mature, healthy cells. As the number of blasts increases in the bone marrow and blood, they crowd out healthy white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets.

Key term(s)
  • acute lymphoblastic leukaemia
  • acute lymphatic leukaemia
  • acute lymphocytic leukaemia
  • acute lymphoid leukaemia
  • acute lymphogenous leukaemia

French

Domaine(s)
  • Cancers et oncologie
  • Système lymphatique
CONT

La leucémie aiguë lymphoblastique (LAL) se développe quand l'ADN d'une cellule souche dans la moelle osseuse change. Ce changement est acquis, ce qui signifie qu'il n'est pas présent à la naissance. La LAL apparaît et évolue rapidement. La LAL apparaît lorsque la moelle osseuse fabrique trop de lymphoblastes anormaux (lymphocytes immatures). Ces cellules immatures (appelées blastes ou cellules leucémiques) ne se développent pas en cellules saines matures. Le nombre de blastes augmentant dans la moelle osseuse et le sang, ils prennent la place des plaquettes, des globules blancs et des globules rouges qui sont sains.

CONT

Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is a type of cancer that starts in blood-forming cells of the bone marrow and invades the blood.

CONT

Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia(CMML) is a myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative disease. This means that it has characteristics of both myelodysplastic syndromes and myeloproliferative disorders.... CMML is a disease in which too many stem cells in the bone marrow develop into 2 types of white blood cells, called monocytes and myelocytes. Some of the cells do not develop into mature white blood cells. The immature cells are called blasts. Gradually the blasts, monocytes and myelocytes crowd out the red blood cells and platelets in the bone marrow.

La leucémie myélomonocytaire chronique (LMMC) est une maladie myélodysplasique/myéloproliférative. Cela signifie qu'elle possède des caractéristiques des syndromes myélodysplasiques et des syndromes myéloprolifératifs. [...] La LMMC est une maladie caractérisée par le développement dans la moelle osseuse d'un trop grand nombre de cellules souches en 2 types de globules blancs, soit les monocytes et les myélocytes. Certaines de ces cellules ne se développent pas en globules blancs matures. Ces cellules immatures sont appelées blastes. Les blastes, monocytes et myélocytes prennent graduellement la place des globules rouges et des plaquettes dans la moelle osseuse.

Subject field(s)
  • Urban Housing
DEF

A building in which people live; residence for human beings.

OBS

"House, ""dwelling, ""residence" and "home" are terms applied to a place to live in. "Dwelling" is now chiefly poetic, or used in legal or technical contexts, as in a lease or in the phrase "multiple dwelling. ""Residence" is characteristic of formal usage and often implies size and elegance of structure and surroundings;... These two terms and "house" have always had reference to the structure to be lived in. "Home" has recently taken on this meaning and become practically equivalent to "house, "the new meaning tending to crowd out the older connotations of family ties and domestic comfort.

OBS

housing: term standardized by ISO.

OBS

dwelling house: term officially approved by the Lexicon Project Committee (New Brunswick).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Habitation et logement (Urbanisme)
DEF

OBS

«Maison», terme concret, désigne un bâtiment entier, tandis que les mots concernant l'habitation, la demeure (abri, asile, etc.) s'applique à tout lieu, bâtiment ou partie de bâtiment où l'on habite. «Maison d'habitation» se dit pour insister sur le fait que la «maison» sert effectivement d'habitation et pour la distinguer d'autres bâtiments.

OBS

maison : terme et définition normalisés par l'ISO.

OBS

habitation familiale : terme uniformisé par le Comité du projet de lexiques (Nouveau-Brunswick).

CONT

Lack of attentional focus is probably the most common problem of novice athletes. Being able to block out the crowd, the other team or our own personal lives can be very challenging at times.

CONT

With the increased familiarity provided by the home setting, the arousal added by the crowd can be better channeled into task performance than when the setting is unfamiliar.

Record 6 2005-04-12

English

Subject field(s)
  • Legal Documents
  • Patents (Law)
  • Copyright, Patent and Trademark Law
DEF

A licence where only the licensee and licensor have the right to exploit the licensed intellectual property.

CONT

A sole licence is one in which the patentee does not himself abstain from manufacture. Such licences are not therefore very common since the patentee will usually either wish to maintain his monopoly and satisfy the market by his own manufacture or get out and leave it to his licensee. On the other hand a licensee is often not interested in paying an entrance fee to be one of a crowd, so to speak, but is prepared to pay for the privilege of running in double harness with the patentee and from the patentee's point of view discretion may be the better part of valour if he is confronted by a powerful and reluctant competitor who is prepared to settle on this basis. For these and other reasons the sole licence is rare but is sometimes a way out of a difficulty.

CONT

A sole license allows you and only one licensee to make, use or sell your idea, and prohibits you from granting any other licenses for that idea.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Documents juridiques
  • Brevets d'invention (Droit)
  • Propriété industrielle et intellectuelle
CONT

Une licence peut également être unique (sole licence). Une licence unique, tout comme une licence exclusive, empêche le propriétaire d'accorder d'autres licences, mais ce propriétaire conserve le droit d'intenter des recours à l'encontre des tiers contrefacteurs.

The argument is often made... that the volume of expenditures that can be financed with a given money supply is fixed; consequently an increase in government spending will displace or crowd out an equivalent amount of private spending, with the displacement occurring through a rise in interest rates.

The new Public Order Bill sets out to prevent the classic inner city preriot situation in which a crowd of angry citizens spontaneously converges on a police station or other government office to protest a grievance. Under the new law, says civil libertarian Spencer, "the police can tell you if you can protest, where and when you can protest, and how many people can protest".
