Absentia/absence means about the same as in English, but refers as medical term from some loss of consciousness to a more serious condition.

it means an absence which has been previously authorised by the school. there may be a list of specific events such as medical appointments, dental appointments, others may be agreed by pre-discussion with a teacher

It means the condition is not there. The disease is not present, it is absent.
Did you mean "abcess"? a bad infection?

it means not there. for example a doctor may say breath sounds absent, meaning he/she can not hear any breath sounds
