Pugmom - where did you find this and what is it? A structure, an instrument, a test? I've looked high and low and just can't figure out what this might be. I'd like to store away the information for later.

Refractoloxanticomb (brain)
Subject: Refractoloxanticomb (brain)
I think everybody has moved on since this word was posted earlier, but I would like to know what this word means and I cannot find it. Is it an instrument used in brain surgery, a structure in the brain, what, the name of an x-ray, what? And how did Pugmom find it? Or did she not find it but found combining forms? I would be grateful for a helping hand because I am confused.

Someone is talking over the dictator in the background and one section is not clear. He is saying:

Because of this dictator's N'Awlin's accent, the second word MAY BE "vascular" but I could not correlate with "solid vascular region" of the brain. Any help?

B-type natriuretic peptide: A 32-amino-acid polypeptide secreted by the ventricles of the heart in response to excessive stretching of myocytes (heart muscles cells) in the ventricles. The levels of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) are elevated in patients with left ventricular dysfunction.
Brain natiuretic peptide (BNP) is a hormone secreted specifically by the left ventricular myocytes. Its concentration is correlated with the severity of symptomatic or asymptomatic left ventricular dysfunction.
