pathology treatment
(pathologyTreatment ?DISEASE ?SUBSTANCE ?PROCESS) means that the
BiologicallyActiveSubstance
?SUBSTANCE is effective in the treatment of the PathologicProcess ?DISEASE when administered via the
Process
?PROCESS, i.e. it has been demonstrated (in a significant sample of patients) to cure the ?DISEASE or at least reduce the severity of symptoms associated with the ?DISEASE.
Relationships
Instances
abstract
Properties or qualities as distinguished from any particular embodiment of the properties/qualities in a physical medium. Instances of Abstract can be said to exist in the same sense as mathematical objects such as sets and relations, but they cannot exist at a particular place and time without some physical encoding or embodiment.
entity
The universal class of individuals. This is the root node of the ontology.
inheritable relation
The class of
Relation
s whose properties can be inherited downward in the class hierarchy via the
subrelation
Predicate
.
predicate
A
Predicate
is a sentence-forming
Relation
. Each tuple in the
Relation
is a finite, ordered sequence of objects. The fact that a particular tuple is an element of a
Predicate
is denoted by '(*predicate* arg_1 arg_2 .. arg_n)', where the arg_i are the objects so related. In the case of
BinaryPredicate
s, the fact can be read as `arg_1 is *predicate* arg_2' or `a *predicate* of arg_1 is arg_2'.
relation
The
Class
of relations. There are two kinds of
Relation
:
Predicate
and
Function
.
Predicate
s and
Function
s both denote sets of ordered n-tuples. The difference between these two
Class
es is that
Predicate
s cover formula-forming operators, while
Function
s cover term-forming operators.
ternary predicate
The
Class
of
Predicate
s that require exactly three arguments.
ternary relation
TernaryRelation
s relate three items. The two
subclass
es of
TernaryRelation
are
TernaryPredicate
and
BinaryFunction
.
