10 hrs confidence: peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1well defined disorder Explanation: I answered the converse of this term last year. See http://www.proz.com/kudoz/french_to_english/medical_general/... Example 1: A patient presents with a two day history of dysuria, urinary frequency and urgency but no fever or back pain. This is a classic history for cystitis. It's in all the textbooks. The French would call this "systematisé". Example 2: A patient is examined and he has crops of vesicles on an erythematous base, all confined to a single dermatome on the right side of the body. The rash was preceded two days earlier by pain over the same area. This is clearly herpes zoster (shingles) or herpes simplex. It's a "well defined disorder", codified in the literature. Example 3: A patient presents with pain in the left chest and right testicle. It comes and goes unrelated to activity, food, position or time of day. It goes away if he shuts his eyes tightly. The pain is said to be non-specific because it is not characteristic of any documented condition.

A specific symptom in English could mean a "particular" symptom but most symptoms or signs need corroborating symptoms and signs to point to a particular disease. When a particular symptom or sign invariably points to a specific diagnosis, it is said to be "pathognomonic". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 10 hrs (2013-04-16 04:30:30 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I love it... |
