diabète insipide |
diabetes insipidus |
 |
| 1. a metabolic disturbance characterized by marked urinary excretion and great thirst but no elevation of sugar in the blood or urine. 2. a pituitary dysfunction characterized by an insufficient output of antidiuretic hormone, leading to polyuria and polydipsia. |

diabète sucré |
diabetes mellitus |
 |
| a metabolic disorder caused primarily by a defect in the production of insulin by the islet cells of the pancreas resulting in an inability to use carbohydrates. Characterized by hyperglycemia, glycosuria, polyuria, hyperlipemia (caused by imperfect catabolism of fats), acidosis, ketonuria, and a lowered resistance to infection. Periodontal manifestations may include recurrent and multiple periodontal abscesses, osteoporotic changes in alveolar bone, fungating masses of granulation tissue protruding from periodontal pockets, a lowered resistance to infection, and delay in healing after periodontal therapy. |

dureté Brinell |
Brinell hardness number, BHN |
 |
| a numerical expression of the hardness of a material, determined by measuring the diameter of a dent made by forcing a hard steel or tungsten carbide ball of standard dimension into the material under specified load in a Brinell machine, which was devised by J.A. Brinell, a Swedish engineer. The larger the indentation, the smaller the Brinell hardness number. |

cleidocranial dysostosis; cleidocranial dysplasia; disease, Marie and Sainton |
 |
| (Sainton's disease), a familial disease or congenital disorder characterized by failure to form, or retarded formation of, the clavicles; delayed closure of the sutures and fontanels; and delayed eruption of teeth, with formation of supernumerary teeth. Cleidocranial dysostosis is characterized by underdevelopment of the maxillae, agenesis or aplasia of the clavicle, abnormalities in other skeletal bones and muscles, and irregularities of the dentition. The syndrome may be mutational or transmitted on an autosomal dominant basis. |
