Why do you mean by principles disease with an example?
Answers
Explanation:
A disease is a condition that deteriorates the normal functioning of the cells, tissues, and organs. Diseases are often thought of as medical conditions that are characterized by their signs and symptoms.
The disease can also be defined as:
A disease is any dangerous divergence from a functional or normal state of an entity. When a person is inflicted with a disease, he exhibits a few symptoms and signs that range from normal to severe depending upon the medical condition. Hence, in order to identify different diseases, the normalcy of an entity needs to be studied and understood as a clear demarcation between disease and disease-free is not always apparent.
The diseases are usually caused by many factors rather than a single cause. When we have a disease, we eventually show some signs, such as headaches, cough, cold, weakness. These signs are referred to as “symptoms.” In almost all diseases, symptoms are shown immediately after having been struck by the disease. However, it varies depending upon the seriousness of the disease.

Explanation:
Many philosophers and medical scientists assume that disease categories or entities used to classify concrete cases of disease, are often defined by disease mechanisms or causal processes. Others suggest that diseases should always be defined in this manner. This paper discusses these standpoints critically and concludes that they are untenable, not only when 'disease mechanism' refers to an objective mechanism, but also when 'mechanism' refers to a pragmatically demarcated part of the total "objective" causal structure of diseases. As an alternative to principles that use the concept of disease mechanism or analogous concepts, a pragmatic approach is suggested and described. This approach has been suggested before, but in problematic or inadequate versions. This paper proposes a version compiled of two "pragmatic principles" and shows that they are much more adequate than the principle of disease mechanism. With reference to a case study of a still ongoing international discussion of various candidates for a classification system for malignant lymphomas, including REAL (Revised European-American Classification of Lymphoid Neoplasms) in which the concept of disease mechanism or analogous concepts plays a very small part, it is shown just how pivotal these two pragmatic principles can be in actual discussions of definitions of diseases.
