Pertaining to or occurring in systole, i.e. the contraction phase of the heartbeat.
Peristediinae is a subfamily of fish in the family Peristediidae, commonly known as armless fish or sirpee fish. They are marine fish that are found in shallow waters of the Atlantic Ocean, Mediterranean Sea, and the coasts of Africa and Europe.
Peristeria is a genus of flowering plants in the family Orchidaceae. The name "Peristeria" comes from the Greek word "peristera", which means "dove", and refers to the shape of the plant's flowers, which resemble a dove's wings.
Peristerite is a rare mineral that is a member of the feldspar group. It has the chemical composition of NaCaBeAl6Si6O24(OH)2. The name "peristerite" comes from the Greek word "peristera", meaning "stork", due to the mineral's distinctive white and blue coloration, which resembles the plumage of a stork. Peristerite is typically found in pegmatites, which are coarse-grained igneous rocks that form during the final stages of a magma chamber's cooling process. Due to its rarity and unique properties, peristerite is of interest to mineral collectors and researchers.
Peristernal refers to the region in the middle or between the ribs, especially the intercostal space or the space between two ribs. It can also describe a part or structure that lies within this region, such as peristernal tissue or peristernal muscles. Additionally, the term "peristernal" is sometimes used to describe surgical approaches or techniques that involve the area between the ribs, such as peristernal thoracotomy.
peristeronic (adjective): Relating to or resembling pigeon-like birds, especially doves.
Peristole refers to the rhythmic contraction and relaxation of muscles in a circular motion, especially in the walls of a blood vessel, such as an artery or vein. It is also known as a muscular contraction, and it plays a crucial role in maintaining blood pressure and circulating blood throughout the body.
A peristome is the rim or margin of a flower cup or corolla, especially in a tulip, daffodil, or other similar flowering plant. It is the ring of petals that surrounds the center of the flower.

The perisylvian region refers to an area in the brain that surrounds the Sylvian fissure, a groove that separates the frontal and parietal lobes. The perisylvian region is involved in language processing, including speech comprehension, syntax, and lexical semantics. It is particularly important for language development, and alterations in this region have been linked to language impairments and disorders such as aphasia.
Perisystole refers to the brief period immediately before or after the peak of the pulse, or at the exact moment of ventricular contraction, with theoretic heart sounds. It is the short period of time when the mitral valve is shut and the aortic valve is closed, also known as the "pause" between the ventricles' contraction.
