Autonomic nervous system
The autonomic nervous system (ANS), formerly the vegetative nervous system, is a division of the peripheral nervous system that supplies smooth muscle and glands, and thus influences the function of internal organs.

Bradycardia
Bradycardia is a condition wherein an individual has a very slow heart rate, typically defined as a resting heart rate of under 60 beats per minute (BPM) in adults.

Cardiac arrest
Cardiac arrest is a sudden loss of blood flow resulting from the failure of the heart to effectively pump.

Central hypoventilation syndrome
Central hypoventilation syndrome (CHS) is a respiratory disorder that results in respiratory arrest during sleep.

Cushing's syndrome
Cushing's syndrome is a collection of signs and symptoms due to prolonged exposure to cortisol.

Diabetes insipidus
Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a condition characterized by large amounts of dilute urine and increased thirst.
New!!: ROHHAD and Diabetes insipidus · See more »
Endocrine system
The endocrine system is a chemical messenger system consisting of hormones, the group of glands of an organism that carry those hormones directly into the circulatory system to be carried towards distant target organs, and the feedback loops of homeostasis that the hormones drive.

Epigenetics
Epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in gene function that do not involve changes in the DNA sequence.
New!!: ROHHAD and Epigenetics · See more »
Ganglioneuroblastoma
Ganglioneuroblastoma is a variant of neuroblastoma that is surrounded by ganglion cells.
New!!: ROHHAD and Ganglioneuroblastoma · See more »
Ganglioneuroma
Ganglioneuroma is a rare and benign tumor of the autonomic nerve fibers arising from neural crest sympathogonia, which are completely undifferentiated cells of the sympathetic nervous system.

Hypernatremia
Hypernatremia, also spelled hypernatraemia, is a high concentration of sodium in the blood.
New!!: ROHHAD and Hypernatremia · See more »
Hyperthermia
Hyperthermia is elevated body temperature due to failed thermoregulation that occurs when a body produces or absorbs more heat than it dissipates.
New!!: ROHHAD and Hyperthermia · See more »
Hyponatremia
Hyponatremia is a low sodium level in the blood.
New!!: ROHHAD and Hyponatremia · See more »
Hypothalamus
The hypothalamus(from Greek ὑπό, "under" and θάλαμος, thalamus) is a portion of the brain that contains a number of small nuclei with a variety of functions.
New!!: ROHHAD and Hypothalamus · See more »
Hypothermia
Hypothermia is reduced body temperature that happens when a body dissipates more heat than it absorbs.
New!!: ROHHAD and Hypothermia · See more »
Hypoventilation
Hypoventilation (also known as respiratory depression) occurs when ventilation is inadequate (hypo meaning "below") to perform needed gas exchange.
New!!: ROHHAD and Hypoventilation · See more »
Hypoxia (medical)
Hypoxia is a condition in which the body or a region of the body is deprived of adequate oxygen supply at the tissue level.

Lurie Children's Hospital
Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago (formerly Children's Memorial Hospital) in Chicago, Illinois is a pediatric specialty hospital.
New!!: ROHHAD and Lurie Children's Hospital · See more »
Neural crest
Neural crest cells are a temporary group of cells unique to chordates of the group Cristozoa that arise from the embryonic ectoderm cell layer, and in turn give rise to a diverse cell lineage—including melanocytes, craniofacial cartilage and bone, smooth muscle, peripheral and enteric neurons and glia.

Non-invasive ventilation
Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is the use of airway support administered through a face (nasal) mask instead of an endotracheal tube.
New!!: ROHHAD and Non-invasive ventilation · See more »
Obesity hypoventilation syndrome
Obesity hypoventilation syndrome (also known as Pickwickian syndrome) is a condition in which severely overweight people fail to breathe rapidly enough or deeply enough, resulting in low blood oxygen levels and high blood carbon dioxide (CO2) levels.
New!!: ROHHAD and Obesity hypoventilation syndrome · See more »
Pituitary gland
An explanation of the development of the pituitary gland (Hypophysis cerebri) & the congenital anomalies. In vertebrate anatomy, the pituitary gland, or hypophysis, is an endocrine gland about the size of a pea and weighing in humans.

Rare disease
A rare disease is any disease that affects a small percentage of the population.
New!!: ROHHAD and Rare disease · See more »
Strabismus
Strabismus, also known as crossed eyes, is a condition in which the eyes do not properly align with each other when looking at an object.
New!!: ROHHAD and Strabismus · See more »
Trachea
The trachea, colloquially called the windpipe, is a cartilaginous tube that connects the pharynx and larynx to the lungs, allowing the passage of air, and so is present in almost all air-breathing animals with lungs.
New!!: ROHHAD and Trachea · See more »
Tracheotomy
Tracheotomy, or tracheostomy, is a surgical procedure which consists of making an incision on the anterior aspect of the neck and opening a direct airway through an incision in the trachea (windpipe).
