Closed twamarc closed 8 years ago

twamarc commented 8 years ago

Current version

:Drug  :subClassOf :MedicalEntity

Suggested

:Drug  :subClassOf :Substance

Rationale: 'Substance' Class was suggested as parent of all medical/healthcare substances like 'Allergen', 'BiologicalSubstance', 'PharmacologicalSubstance' and 'ChemicalSubstance' .

Extension for Its definition is also suggested:

    <div typeof="rdfs:Class" resource="http://schema.org/Drug">
      <span class="h" property="rdfs:label">Drug</span>
      <span property="rdfs:comment">A chemical or biologic substance, used as a medical therapy, that has a physiological effect on an organism.</span>
       <span>Subclass of: <a property="rdfs:subClassOf" href="http://schema.org/MedicalTherapy">MedicalTherapy</a></span>
       <span>Source:  <a property="dc:source" href="http://www.w3.org/wiki/WebSchemas/SchemaDotOrgSources#source_WikiDoc">WikiDoc</a></span>
    </div>

Suggested

<div typeof="rdfs:Class" resource="http://schema.org/Drug">
  <span class="h" property="rdfs:label"> health:Drug</span>
  <span property="rdfs:comment">A chemical or biologic substance, used as a medical therapy, that has a physiological effect on an organism. Here the term drug is used interchangeably with the term medicine although clinical knowledge make a clear difference between them.</span>
