8 Influenza Ontology & IDO Influenza ontology is an extension of IDO Additionally, Influenza Ontology covers domains outside of IDO (e. g. surveillance) A disease is a disposition rooted in a physical disorder in the organism and realized in pathological processes. produces bears realized_in etiological process disorder disposition pathological process produces diagnosis interpretive process signs & symptoms abnormal bodily features produces used_in recognized_as 16 8

9 Influenza - infectious Etiological process - infection of airway epithelial cells with influenza virus produces Disorder - viable cells with influenza virus bears Disposition (disease) - flu realized_in Pathological process - acute inflammation produces Abnormal bodily features recognized_as Symptoms - weakness, dizziness Signs - fever Symptoms & Signs used_in Interpretive process produces Hypothesis - rule out influenza suggests Laboratory tests produces Test results - elevated serum antibody titers used_in Interpretive process produces Result - diagnosis that patient X has a disorder that bears the disease flu 17 9
