D054792	Muscle, Striated	One of two types of muscle in the body, characterized by the array of bands observed under microscope. Striated muscles can be divided into two subtypes: the CARDIAC MUSCLE and the SKELETAL MUSCLE.	Striated Muscle,Muscles, Striated,Striated Muscles
D057896	Striae Distensae	Linear dermal scars accompanied by epidermal atrophy that affects skin that is subjected to continuous stretching. They usually do not cause any significant medical problems, only cosmetic problems.	Stretch Marks,Distensae, Striae,Mark, Stretch,Marks, Stretch,Stretch Mark
D018482	Muscle, Skeletal	A subtype of striated muscle, attached by TENDONS to the SKELETON. Skeletal muscles are innervated and their movement can be consciously controlled. They are also called voluntary muscles.
