mean difference(English)
monochorionic diamniotic [twin](English)
- the product of a single fertilized ovum, resulting in genetically identical offspring. These twins share a placenta and therefore a blood supply. They occur in 3–4 per 1,000 pregnancies; aka MCDA, MDT, Mo-Di

Meckel's diverticulum(English)
- results from the incomplete obliteration of the fetal omphalomesenteric-vitelline duct between the seventh and eighth weeks of gestation. The vitelline duct communicates with the yolk sac and involutes as the placenta replaces the yolk sac as the source of fetal nutrition. Failure of this process results in various anomalies of which MD accounts for 90% of the vitelline duct anomalies

mental disorder(English)
mammographic density(English)
- even though its repeated validation as a breast cancer risk factor in multiple studies, it has been criticized, because there is no standardized measurement method and most of the methods are subjective, such as the Wolfeʼs patterns, Boydʼs classification, and subjective assessment of the percentage density by a reader

main duct(English)
modafinil(English)
- a synthetic central nervous system stimulant with wakefulness-promoting activity. As a psychostimulant drug used off-label it appears to inhibit dopamine reuptake, resulting in an increase in extracellular dopamine. This agent exhibits pronounced wakefulness-promoting activity (without sympathomimetic activity) and may improve cognitive function in certain clinical settings

more dollars(English)
- although physicists, chemists, and engineers have long had their own salary surveys, no one until 2001 has tried to keep tabs on the sprawling biological research community. The American Association for the Advancement of Science filled that gap with the first-ever salary survey of its 70,000 life sciences members in the United States
