The CWRC Illness and Injury Ontology
The CWRC Illness and Injury Ontology is an ontology developed and used by the Canadian Writing Research Collaboratory.
L'Ontologie II est l'ontologie du Collaboratoire scientifique des écrits du Canada.
has CWRC Code
Since both ICD-10 and ICD-10-SMoL (WHO) assign codes to entries, there is an unique code assigned to each entry in Illness and Injury.
has WHO Chapter
This code refers to the chapter in the ICS-10-SMoL (WHO) documentation that the illness or injury entry is in.
Not yet used in the ontology.
has WHO Code
Each entry in the ICD-10-SMoL (WHO) is assigned a code and we include it here for reference.
Not yet entered for all of our entries. Some of our entries will not have a WHO code since they do not appear in the ICD-10-SMoL Some of these entries do have an ICD-10 code or they are not in either ICD-10 or ICD-10-SMoL and are unique to CWRC.
Cancers
Neoplasms
Notes from ICD-10-SMoL: Includes all neoplasms of all organ systems, including cancer.
Cancers
Morbidity and Mortality
This list of Illness and Injury (Morbidity and Mortality) classifications is an abbreviated version of the World Health Organization's (WHO) Startup Mortality List (ICD-10-SMoL). ICD-10-SMoL is the WHO's application of ICD-10 for low-resource settings initial cause of death collection.
ICD-10-SMoL was chosen because it is a simplified version of the ICD-10.
ICD (International Classification of Diseases) "is the foundation for the identification of health trends and statistics globally, and the international standard for reporting diseases and health conditions. It is the diagnostic classification standard for all clinical and research purposes. ICD defines the universe of diseases, disorders, injuries and other related health conditions" [http://www.who.int/classifications/icd/en/].
Version 1.0 of this ontology was compiled for the CWRC ontology project and reflects the need to have causes of death and health issues organized in a way to allow for analysis of cultural data. A simplified list was deemed sufficient since the domain under study (cultural documents) will not have detailed medical information with regards to cause of death or health issues. But instead of accepting a list of general usage terms for causes of death or health issues that appear in some sources (e.g. Wikipedia, Wikidata, etc.), a standardized, medical classification was selected so that it could be of use for future analysis regarding questions involving the intersection of health and culture.
ICD-10-SMoL was chosen since it was the latest version of this list (June, 2018). A stable version of ICD-11 was to be available in June 2018 but there was no ICD-11-SMoL available at this time.

Description from Mayo Clinic
(https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/celiac-disease/symptoms-causes/syc-20352220)
"Celiac disease (gluten-sensitive enteropathy), sometimes called sprue or coeliac, is an immune reaction to eating gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley and rye.
If you have celiac disease, eating gluten triggers an immune response in your small intestine. Over time, this reaction damages your small intestine's lining and prevents absorption of some nutrients (malabsorption). The intestinal damage often causes diarrhea, fatigue, weight loss, bloating and anemia, and can lead to serious complications."

Drug poisoning
In Orlando there is a reference to Cause of Death from Dr. James's Powder.
Dr James's powder was a patent remedy. It was also called Dr. James’s Fever Powder, circa 1746.
(https://www.the-scientist.com/uncategorized/dr-james-fever-powder-circa-1746-43055)
"Dr. James’s fever powder, patented by English physician Robert James, claimed to cure fevers and various other maladies, from gout and scurvy to distemper in cattle. Though its efficacy was often questioned, the powder had 'a long tradition of usage', from its introduction in 1746 well into the 20th century, says John Crellin, a professor of medical humanities at Memorial University of Newfoundland. It was even prescribed to King George III when he was suffering from cataracts, rheumatism and dementia at the end of his life."

Description from the Mayo Clinic
(https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/graves-disease/symptoms-causes/syc-20356240)
"Graves' disease is an immune system disorder that results in the overproduction of thyroid hormones (hyperthyroidism). Although a number of disorders may result in hyperthyroidism, Graves' disease is a common cause.
Because thyroid hormones affect a number of different body systems, signs and symptoms associated with Graves' disease can be wide ranging and significantly influence your overall well-being. Although Graves' disease may affect anyone, it's more common among women and before the age of 40."

Description from (http://www.pleuritis.net/)
"Pleurisy, also known as pleuritus, is an inflammation of the pleura, or the lining of the lungs.

This can cause problems breathing and may even make a person run out of breath to a point in which they could pass out. The complications from this disorder can be very serious and in some cases it can be fatal."

This category is not in the ICD-10-SMoL. It is in ICD-10 as category F43 and includes:
F43.0 Acute stress reaction
F43.1 Post-traumatic stress disorder
F43.2 Adjustment disorders
This category will be used for Causes of Death such as:
- grief
- nervous shock
Note about "nervous shock" - this is a legal term NOT a medical term.
Definitions include:
- from LawTeacher
(https://www.lawteacher.net/free-law-essays/common-law/what-is-nervous-shock.php)
"Nervous shock is the onset of a psychiatric illness caused by witnessing the negligent action, or the results thereof, of another. For the purposes of succeeding in a suit it must be diagnosed as more than grief or sorrow i.e. an actual psychiatric illness."
- from Wikipedia
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nervous_shock_in_English_law)
"In English law, a nervous shock is a psychiatric illness or injury inflicted upon a person by intentional or negligent actions or omissions of another. Often it is a psychiatric disorder triggered by witnessing an accident, for example an injury caused to one's parents or spouse. Although the term "nervous shock" has been described as "inaccurate" and "misleading", it continues to be applied as a useful abbreviation for a complex concept. The possibility of recovering damages for nervous shock, particularly caused by negligence, is strongly limited in English law."

"Smallpox is an acute contagious disease caused by the variola virus, a member of the orthopoxvirus family. It was one of the world's most devastating diseases known to humanity. The last known natural case was in Somalia in 1977. It was declared eradicated in 1980 following a global immunization campaign led by the World Health Organization."
"Smallpox is a devastating disease caused by the variola virus. In 1980, following an historic global campaign of surveillance and vaccination, the World Health Assembly declared smallpox eradicated – the only infectious disease to achieve this distinction."
