G0 Stage Diploid Thymocyte Count to Total Thymocyte Count Ratio [CMO:0003523] — A calculated measurement in which the number of G0 stage diploid thymocytes in a specified sample of thymus is divided by the total number of thymocytes in the sample, and the result presented as a ratio, fraction, quotient or percentage. Diploid is the condition of having two sets of homologous chromosomes and G0 is a cell cycle quiescent stage .
G2/M Stage Tetraploid Thymocyte Count to Total Thymocyte Count Ratio [CMO:0003524] — A calculated measurement in which the number of G2/M stage tetraploid thymocytes in a specified sample of thymus is divided by the total number of thymocytes in the sample, and the result presented as a ratio, fraction, quotient or percentage. Tetraploid is the condition of having four sets of homologous chromosomes and G2/M is a cell cycle checkpoint which assures that mitosis doesn't proceed until DNA replication/repair is finished .
Gall Bladder Ribonucleic Acid Composition Measurement [CMO:0003267] —
Gastrocnemius Ribonucleic Acid Composition Measurement [CMO:0003252] —
Gastrointestinal Tract Morphological Measurement [CMO:0003015] — Measurement of the morphological characteristics of the gastrointestinal tract. The gastrointestinal tract is an organ system within humans and other animals which takes in food, digests it to extract and absorb energy and nutrients, and expels the remaining waste as feces. The mouth, esophagus, stomach and intestines are part of the gastrointestinal tract.
Gastrointestinal Tract Weight [CMO:0003016] — Measurement of the weight or heaviness of the gastrointestinal tract, that is, the degree to which it is drawn toward the earth by gravity. The gastrointestinal tract is an organ system within humans and other animals which takes in food, digests it to extract and absorb energy and nutrients, and expels the remaining waste as feces. The mouth, esophagus, stomach and intestines are part of the gastrointestinal tract.
Gastrointestinal Tract Weight to Body Weight Ratio [CMO:0003029] —
Gestation Period Length [CMO:0000467] — Duration of pregnancy from time of fertilization of the oocyte until birth.
Globus Pallidus Ribonucleic Acid Composition Measurement [CMO:0003323] —
Glomerular Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Density [CMO:0003377] —
Glomerular Capillary Hydraulic Pressure [CMO:0002969] — Force exerted on the luminal capillary wall from fluid flowing through the capillary.
Glomerular Capillary Ultrafiltration Coefficient [CMO:0002979] — A measure of a membrane's permeability to water; specifically, the volume of fluid filtered in unit time through a unit area of membrane per unit pressure difference, and it is defined as the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) for both kidneys per millimeter of mercury (mmHg) of filtration pressure.
Glomerular Filtering Surface Area to Glomerular Volume Ratio [CMO:0003709] — This is a calculated value estimated from the glomerular filtering surface area of the peripheral capillary wall per unit glomerular volume. It is based on the proportion of the peripheral capillary basement membrane in contact with epithelial podocytes, as determined by microscopic measurements.
Glomerular Filtration Rate [CMO:0000490] — Glomerular filtration rate describes the flow rate of filtered fluid through the kidney. It is calculated by comparative measurements of substances (ex. creatinine or inulin) in the blood and urine over a designated period of time.
Glomerular Filtration Rate Index [CMO:0003628] — This index is the first order rate constant, k(cl), which describes the clearance of an extracellular contrast agent (Gd-DTPA (gadopentetic acid), Gd-DOTA (gadoteric acid), or gadoterate meglumine (organoammonium salt of gadoteric acid) from renal cortex to outer medulla as calculated according to the following equation: k(cl)=(dc[medulla]/dt)/c[cortex]. The concentration in the cortex (predominantly blood signal) is compared to the concentration in the medulla (predominantly urine). The clearance of the contrast agent can serve as a marker for the glomerular filtration rate.
Glomerular Filtration Rate to Body Weight Ratio [CMO:0002783] — A calculated measurement in which glomerular filtration rate, an estimate of the volume of fluid filtered from the kidney glomerular capillaries into the Bowman's capsule per specified unit of time, is divided by the total weight of the body and the result is presented as a ratio, fraction, quotient or percentage.
Glomerular Filtration Rate to Kidney Weight Ratio [CMO:0002944] —
Glomerular Sieving Coefficient for Albumin [CMO:0003635] — This is a calculated measurement of the ability of the kidney glomerulus to keep albumin out of the urine by its filtering function. It is the ratio of the albumin concentration in the filtrate (in Bowmans space) to the albumin concentration in the plasma (in the glomerular capillaries). The equation to derive this sieving value is based on fluorescence values from intravital multiphoton microscopy: (intensity of Bowmans space intensity of background Bowmans space)/(intensity of capillaries intensity of background capillaries).
Glomerular Transcapillary Hydraulic Pressure Gradient [CMO:0002986] —
Glomerular Volume Per Podocyte [CMO:0003748] —
Glucose Disappearance Constant [CMO:0003208] — The rate constant associated with glucose disappearance from a loaded system.
Gluteus Medius Muscle Weight [CMO:0001398] — The weight or the measure of the heaviness of the leg muscle with origin in the ilium and insertion to the surface of the greater trochanter, whose action abducts and rotates the thigh.
Glycosuria Incidence/prevalence Measurement [CMO:0003448] — Any measurement in which the number of individuals in a study population that display glycosuria at a point in time or develop arthritis within a determined period of time are compared to the total number of individuals in the study population, expressed as a percentage or ratio. Glucose in the urine (glycosuria or glucosuria), results from the glomerular filtration of more glucose than the renal tubule can absorb.
Grooming Measurement [CMO:0001748] — Any measurement related to the activity of one or more organisms cleaning themselves or one another.
Growth Measurement [CMO:0000418] — Measure of increase in size of an organism over a specified period of time.
GSK2181236A Response/sensitivity Measurement [CMO:0003414] — Measurement of an organism's, organ's, tissue's or cell's capacity to respond, such as by a change in activity, state or condition, to GSK2181236A, a chemical that belongs to a novel group of small molecule compounds which increase the enzymatic activity of soluble guanylate cyclase.
GSK2181236A-induced Blood Vessel Dilation Expressed as Percent Reduction of the Force Generated in A Pre-constricted Blood Vessel [CMO:0003415] — This is a measure of the relaxation caused by the addition of GSK2181236A to a pre-constricted blood vessel. It is the ratio of the amount of dilation compared to a fully dilated blood vessel.
