from the normal structure,or function of any part of the body.Diseases can be,grouped into a number of different but often,overlapping categories.These include:,Infectious diseases,caused by microorganisms and,other,parasites,that live at the expense of another,organism.Any disease-causing organism is described,as a,pathogen,.,Degenerative diseases(,变性疾病,),resulting from wear,and tear,aging,or trauma(injury)that can result in a,lesion(wound)and perhaps necrosis(death)of tissue.,Common examples include arthritis,cardiovascular,problems,and certain respiratory disorders such as,emphysema.Structural malformations such as congenital,malformations,prolapse(dropping,脱垂,),or hernia,(rupture)may also result in degenerative changes.,Neoplasia,abnormal and uncontrolled growth of tissue.,Immune disorders(,免疫功能紊乱,),failures of the immune,system,allergies,and autoimmune diseases,in which the,body makes antibodies to its own tissues,fall into this,category.,Metabolic disorders,resulting from lack of enzymes or,other factors needed for cellular functions.Many,hereditary disorders fall into this category.Malnutrition,caused by inadequate intake of nutrients or inability of,the body to absorb and use nutrients also upsets,metabolism.,Hormonal disorders,caused by underproduction or,overproduction of hormones or by inability of the,hormones to function properly.One example is diabetes,mellitus.,Mental and emotional disorders,disorders that affect,the mind and adaptation of an individual to his,or her environment.,The cause of a disease is its,etiology,although many,diseases have multiple interacting causes.An acute,disease is sudden and severe and of short duration.A,chronic disease is of long duration and progresses,slowly.,Infectious Diseases:,Infectious diseases are caused by viruses,bacteria,fungi(yeasts and molds),protozoa,(single-celled,animals,原生动物,),and worms.In shape,bacteria may be,round(cocci),rod-shaped(bacilli),or curved,(vibrios,弧菌,and,spirochetes,,螺旋菌,).They may be named according,to their shape and by the arrangements they form.They,also are described according to the,dyes,they take up,when stained in the laboratory.The most common,laboratory bacterial stain is the Gram stain,with which,gram-positive organisms stain,purple,and gram-negative,organisms stain,red,.,Phagocytosis(,吞噬作用,噬菌作用,),The body uses phagocytosis to get rid of invading,microorganisms,damaged cells,and other types of,harmful,debris,.Certain white blood cells are capable of,engulfing these materials and destroying them internally,.Phagocytic cells are found circulating in the blood,in,the tissues,and in the lymphatic system.The remains,of phagocytosis consist of fluid and white blood cells;,this is called,pus.,Immunity,The immune system,mounts,our specific responses to,disease.Cells of the immune system recognize different,foreign invaders,and get rid of them by direct attack,and with circulating antibodies that immobilize and,help to destroy the cells.The immune system also,monitors the body continuously for abnormal and,malfunctioning cells,such as cancer cells.The system,may also overreact to produce allergies,and may react,to ones own tissues to cause autoimmune diseases.,As noted above,a,neoplasm(,瘤,),is an abnormal and,uncontrolled growth of tissuea tumor or growth.A,neoplasm that does not spread,that is,metastasize,to,other tissues is described as benign,although it may,cause damage at the site where it grows.A neoplasm,that metastasizes to other tissues is termed malignant,and is commonly called,cancer,.A malignant tumor that,involves epithelial tissue is a carcinoma.If the tumor,arises in,glandular epithelium,it is an,adenocarcinoma,(the root aden/o means“gland”);a cancer of,pigmented,epithelial cells,(melanocytes)is a,melanoma,.,Neoplasia:,A neoplasm that involves connective tissue,muscle,or bone is a,sarcoma(,肉瘤,),.Cancers of the blood,lymphatic system,and nervous system are classified,according to the cell types involved and other clinical,features.,Often mistaken for a malignancy is a,cyst(,囊肿,),a,sac or pouch filled with fluid or semisolid material that,is usually abnormal but not cancerous common sites,for cyst formation are the breasts,the,sebaceous,glands(,皮脂腺,),of the skin,and the ovaries.Causes,of cyst formation include infection or blockage of a,duct.,Roots Pertaining to Disease,ROOT,MEANING,EXAMPLE,DEFINITION OF EXAMPLE,Alg/o,algi/o,algesi/o,Pain,algesia,Condition of having
