[coi] Some classifications of the entities in patient 1

Very rough, for discussion. From the realist point of view.

Patient 1 in http://esw.w3.org/topic/HCLS/ 
ClinicalObservationsInteroperability/MockedUpPatientData

dispositions:
   orthostatic intolerance http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ 
Orthostatic_intolerance
   dizziness D004244
   hypertension D006973
   orthostatic hypotension D007024
   dizziness while standing - while standing = condition on realization
   fainting while standing
   diabetes

Uncertain:
   pulse rate (see http://groups.google.com/group/bfo-discuss/ 
browse_thread/thread/1695b1b7780ea455)
   cardiac ejection fraction ("quality of an occurrent" ?)

Qualities:
   Hemoglobin A1c 9 % D006442 (the protein), need a glycosylated version
     (the quality is actually A1C form glycosylated heamoglobin/  
total  haemoglobin) (see https://wiki.cbil.upenn.edu/obiwiki/ 
index.php/ConcentrationQualityInOBI, https://wiki.cbil.upenn.edu/ 
obiwiki/index.php/Image:Concentration.pdf)
   postprandial glucose
   serum creatinine
   urinary protein
   BP was 84/60 mm Hg (maybe a disposition, not sure) Barry's view in  
2003 http://ontology.buffalo.edu/medo/BPO.pdf

Blood pressure is the pressure exerted on the arterial walls by the  
flow of blood. The
term ‘blood pressure’ designates both a certain function (to exert  
pressure) and also
a certain state (of pressure being exerted), both of which are  
dependent continuants,
the latter being associated with a value. The process of change in  
this value is an
occurrent, which is dependent on the underlying state. Like all other  
functions in the
body, blood pressure is subject to regulation. Regulation of blood  
pressure involves
the exercise of a number of different functions in different parts of  
the body. Their
collective task is to maintain blood pressure value within a certain  
interval.
