摘要

Signs and Symptoms are atoms of clinical intelligibility and are the entry port of medical care. They may be construed by two apparently opposing arguments, either as descriptive-extensional or as instrumental-intensional. The first approach is a relation between some linguistic claim and a disease. The second approach is a predicate that is constitutive of and belongs to the disease.
