Formalizing the relationship between a disease and disorders
disease =def. A disposition (i) to undergo pathological processes that (ii) exists in an organism because of one or more disorders in that organism.
disorder =def. A material entity which is clinically abnormal and part of an extended organism. Disorders are the physical basis of disease.
I was wondering if anyone had an idea on how to formalize the relationship between a disease and its underlying disorders. Should it be restricted to be borne by the patient that has the disorders as part?
Any thoughts? Thank you.
BFO 2020 has 'has material basis at some time', 'has material basis at all times' All times def: b has material basis c at all times =Def For all times t, b exists at t implies (b is a disposition & c is a material entity & there is some d bearer of b & c continuant part of d at t & d has disposition b because c continuant part of d at t)
Here's a search at ontobee: http://www.ontobee.org/search?ontology=&keywords=material+basis&submit=Search+terms
However, the BFO links are broken.

Is there any reason why we should not axiomatize this explicitly in OGMS?
This has come up from time to time and has been discussed in the past, but I don't remember what the reasons were. :)
