D008875	Middle Aged	An adult aged 45 - 64 years.	Middle Age
D009101	Multiple Myeloma	A malignancy of mature PLASMA CELLS engaging in monoclonal immunoglobulin production. It is characterized by hyperglobulinemia, excess Bence-Jones proteins (free monoclonal IMMUNOGLOBULIN LIGHT CHAINS) in the urine, skeletal destruction, bone pain, and fractures. Other features include ANEMIA; HYPERCALCEMIA; and RENAL INSUFFICIENCY.

D000361	Agammaglobulinemia	An immunologic deficiency state characterized by an extremely low level of generally all classes of gamma-globulin in the blood.	Hypogammaglobulinemia,Agammaglobulinemias,Hypogammaglobulinemias
D000686	Amyloidosis	A group of sporadic, familial and/or inherited, degenerative, and infectious disease processes, linked by the common theme of abnormal protein folding and deposition of AMYLOID. As the amyloid deposits enlarge they displace normal tissue structures, causing disruption of function. Various signs and symptoms depend on the location and size of the deposits.	Amyloidoses
D001536	Bence Jones Protein	An abnormal protein with unusual thermosolubility characteristics that is found in the urine of patients with MULTIPLE MYELOMA.	Bence Jones Protein Den,Bence Jones Protein SUT,Jones Protein, Bence,Protein, Bence Jones
