UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D001796	Blood Protein Disorders	Hematologic diseases caused by structural or functional defects of BLOOD PROTEINS.	Blood Protein Disorder,Disorder, Blood Protein,Disorders, Blood Protein,Protein Disorder, Blood,Protein Disorders, Blood
D003080	Cold Temperature	An absence of warmth or heat or a temperature notably below an accustomed norm.	Cold,Cold Temperatures,Temperature, Cold,Temperatures, Cold
D003450	Cryoglobulins	Abnormal immunoglobulins, especially IGG or IGM, that precipitate spontaneously when SERUM is cooled below 37 degrees Celsius. It is characteristic of CRYOGLOBULINEMIA.	Cryoglobulin,Cryoprotein,Cryoproteins
D004903	Erythrocyte Aggregation	The formation of clumps of RED BLOOD CELLS under low or non-flow conditions, resulting from the attraction forces between the red blood cells. The cells adhere to each other in rouleaux aggregates. Slight mechanical force, such as occurs in the circulation, is enough to disperse these aggregates. Stronger or weaker than normal aggregation may result from a variety of effects in the ERYTHROCYTE MEMBRANE or in BLOOD PLASMA. The degree of aggregation is affected by ERYTHROCYTE DEFORMABILITY, erythrocyte membrane sialylation, masking of negative surface charge by plasma proteins, etc. BLOOD VISCOSITY and the ERYTHROCYTE SEDIMENTATION RATE are affected by the amount of erythrocyte aggregation and are parameters used to measure the aggregation.

D005719	gamma-Globulins	Serum globulins that migrate to the gamma region (most positively charged) upon ELECTROPHORESIS. At one time, gamma-globulins came to be used as a synonym for immunoglobulins since most immunoglobulins are gamma globulins and conversely most gamma globulins are immunoglobulins. But since some immunoglobulins exhibit an alpha or beta electrophoretic mobility, that usage is in decline.	gamma-Globulin,gamma Globulin,gamma Globulins
D006801	Humans	Members of the species Homo sapiens.	Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D000373	Agglutinins	A substance that makes particles (such as bacteria or cells) stick together to form a clump or a mass.	Agglutinin
D000743	Anemia, Hemolytic	A condition of inadequate circulating red blood cells (ANEMIA) or insufficient HEMOGLOBIN due to premature destruction of red blood cells (ERYTHROCYTES).	Anemia, Hemolytic, Acquired,Anemia, Microangiopathic,Haemolytic Anaemia,Hemolytic Anemia,Hemolytic Anemia, Acquired,Microangiopathic Hemolytic Anemia,Acquired Hemolytic Anemia,Anaemia, Haemolytic,Anemia, Acquired Hemolytic,Anemia, Microangiopathic Hemolytic,Haemolytic Anaemias,Hemolytic Anemia, Microangiopathic,Microangiopathic Anemia,Microangiopathic Hemolytic Anemias
D000918	Antibody Specificity	The property of antibodies which enables them to react with some ANTIGENIC DETERMINANTS and not with others. Specificity is dependent on chemical composition, physical forces, and molecular structure at the binding site.	Antibody Specificities,Specificities, Antibody,Specificity, Antibody
D001323	Autoantibodies	Antibodies that react with self-antigens (AUTOANTIGENS) of the organism that produced them.	Autoantibody
