trachyte (sh) and forced cycle (medicine)


trachyte (sh)




Light-coloured, very fine-grained igneous rock composed chiefly of alkali feldspar with only minor mafic minerals (biotite, hornblende, or pyroxene).

Trachyte is commonly found in volcanic regions; like many volcanic rocks, it shows a streaked or banded structure due to flowing of the congealing lava.


forced cycle (medicine)


forced cycle
<cardiology, physiology> A cardiac cycle (atrial or ventricular) that is cut short by a forced beat.
