- Cortical thickness [r]: The combined thickness of the cerebral cortex layers. [e]
- Grey matter [r]: A subset of brain tissue that contains few myelinated axons but the somas of nerve cells, as well as glia and endothelial structures. [e]
- White matter [r]: A subset of brain tissue whose volume is dominated by myelinated axons of nerve cells. [e]
- Peripheral nervous system [r]: The part of the nervous system consisting of the nerves and neurons that reside or extend outside the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord) to serve the limbs and organs. [e]
- Medicine [r]: The study of health and disease of the human body. [e]

- Acetaminophen [r]: An analgesic antipyretic drug widely used for the treatment of headaches, fever and other minor aches and pains; has no antiinflammatory activity [e]
- Acetylcholinesterase [r]: An enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of acetylcholine to choline and acetate, causing muscles, ennervated by cholinergic receptors, to relax [e]
- Acetylcholine [r]: A chemical transmitter in both the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and central nervous system (CNS) in many organisms including humans. [e]
