Inflammation of the periosteum surrounding a bone. It localizes the affected tissue without determining whether the initiating process is infection, mechanical stress or another cause.
A historical morphological category of cellular, often spindle-celled growths suggesting fibrous differentiation. It does not map uniquely to one modern diagnosis or prove benign behaviour.
A biological or physical change occurring after death. Temperature change, tissue breakdown and blood redistribution can resemble or obscure ante-mortem findings, making timing and preservation important to interpretation.[ref]
Postmortem Changes (StatPearls). Overview
An abnormal quantity or distribution of physiologically important ions in body fluids. Concentration reflects both solute and water, so a changed concentration need not imply an equal change in total-body content.
An particle physicist studies particle physics through mathematical theory, observation or experiment. The field determines the relevant physical systems and measurements, while the individual biographies below connect particular contributions with their scientific ideas.
Mapping logical processor registers to versions identified by producer tags or physical registers. A conditional destination must still deliver the old logical value when its predicate is false.
A shared path carrying tagged results or completion information to waiting reservation stations, the register file or a reorder buffer. A tag identifies the particular producer, not merely the destination's logical name.
An age-ordered structure holding issued instructions' results and completion or exception status until instruction retirement. It permits execution to complete out of order while commitment follows program order.
Reduced ability to detect or interpret sound. Conductive impairment affects transmission through the outer or middle ear, while sensorineural hearing loss involves the inner ear or auditory neural pathway; mixed forms combine mechanisms.
Inflammation of the pharynx.
Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project
Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

Source. - local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
- to OurBigBook.com to get awesome multi-user features like topics and likes
- as HTML files to a static website, which you can host yourself for free on many external providers like GitHub Pages, and remain in full control
