Induced Abortion (procedure)

Induced abortion (artificial termination of pregnancy), ICD-11 JA00.1, is deliberate interruption of pregnancy by medical or surgical means. About 73 million occur yearly; 45% are unsafe, causing major maternal mortality.

Induced coma

Induced coma (pharmacologically induced coma, barbiturate coma) is deep ICU-produced unconsciousness from continuous IV anesthetics, used mainly for refractory status epilepticus and raised intracranial pressure, titrated by EEG to burst suppression.

Induced dipole

An induced dipole is a temporary electric dipole moment created in an atom or molecule when an external electric field displaces its electron cloud; it vanishes when the field is removed.

Induced drag

Induced drag, also called drag due to lift, is the component of aerodynamic drag a wing generates as a consequence of producing lift, arising from wingtip vortices and downwash.

Induced gravity

Induced gravity is the proposal, made by Andrei Sakharov in 1967, that Einstein's gravity is an effective action induced by vacuum fluctuations of quantum matter fields.

Induced hyperthermia

Induced hyperthermia is a cancer treatment that deliberately heats tissue to 39–45 °C to damage tumor cells and increase the effectiveness of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, used mainly as an adjunct.

Induced hypotension

Induced hypotension, also called deliberate or controlled hypotension, is an anesthetic technique that lowers blood pressure during surgery to reduce blood loss and improve the surgical field.

Induced membrane technique

The induced membrane technique is a two-stage orthopedic procedure for large bone defects, described by Alain Masquelet: a cement spacer induces a membrane later filled with bone graft.

Induced pluripotent stem cell

An induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) is a somatic cell, such as a skin cell, reprogrammed to an embryonic stem cell-like state by Yamanaka's four factors.

Induced polarization

Induced polarization is a geophysical method measuring the delayed voltage decay of subsurface materials after an injected current is cut off, reporting chargeability and phase, used mainly to explore for disseminated metallic sulfides.

Induced representation

An induced representation is a representation of a group G built from a representation of a subgroup H, with Frobenius reciprocity making induction adjoint to restriction.

Induced seismicity

Induced seismicity, sometimes called man-made earthquake activity, is earthquake activity caused or triggered by human activity, most commonly fluid injection or withdrawal, as in wastewater disposal, geothermal energy, and CO2 storage.

Induced T-regulatory cell

Induced T-regulatory cell (iTreg): Foxp3+ regulatory T cell generated from naive CD4+ T cells in vitro or in the periphery, unlike thymic tTregs; unstable FOXP3 without TSDR demethylation, stabilized by rapamycin, ATRA, and TCR stimulation.

Inductance

Inductance, also called electrical inductance or self-inductance, is the property of a conductor by which changing current induces an electromotive force, measured in henrys and named for Joseph Henry.

Induction and mentoring of early-career physics teachers

Structured support, such as mentoring, reduced loads, and observation with feedback, given to novice physics teachers in their first years, a field with steep under-recruitment and high turnover.

Induction chemotherapy

Induction chemotherapy, also called first-line or primary treatment, is chemotherapy given as the first treatment for cancer, before definitive therapies such as surgery, radiotherapy, or chemoradiotherapy.

Induction coil

The induction coil in telephony is a multi-winding transformer coupling the carbon transmitter to the line, keeping direct current out of the receiver, and reducing sidetone.

Induction cooker

An induction cooker is a cooktop that heats a cooking vessel directly by electromagnetic induction, so the pan itself becomes the heating element, requiring cast iron or suitable stainless steel.

Induction cooking

Induction cooking heats ferromagnetic cookware directly via a 25-50 kHz magnetic field from a coil under a glass-ceramic top, reaching up to 90% efficiency versus 40% for gas; first home units appeared in 1974.

Induction furnace

An induction furnace is an electrical melting furnace that heats metal with eddy currents induced by a copper coil, used for steel, cast iron, aluminum, and specialty metals.

Induction generator

An induction generator, also called an asynchronous generator, is an induction machine that produces electricity when driven slightly above synchronous speed, commonly used for small hydro and wind energy.

Induction hardening

Induction hardening is a surface heat treatment in which electromagnetic induction rapidly heats a thin layer of a steel part, which quenching turns into hard martensite.

Induction heads and transformer circuits

Induction heads are attention heads in transformer language models that find a previous occurrence of a token and copy what followed it, identified by Anthropic researchers in 2021.

Induction heating

Induction heating, also known as inductive heating or eddy-current heating, heats a conductive object by inducing currents within it using a nearby alternating-current coil, and is used for furnaces, surface hardening, and cooktops.
