respiratory disease
Let an agent explain respiratory diseases as a category, relay major kinds, causes, burden and prevention from WHO and pulmonology sources in general terms, describe the forms the registry aliases name, and distinguish respiratory diseases from cardiovascular diseases, from allergic conditions elsewhere and from breathing symptoms as such, routing symptoms and emergencies appropriately.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description
Let an agent explain respiratory diseases as a category, relay major kinds, causes, burden and prevention from WHO and pulmonology sources in general terms, describe the forms the registry aliases name, and distinguish respiratory diseases from cardiovascular diseases, from allergic conditions elsewhere and from breathing symptoms as such, routing symptoms and emergencies appropriately.
Any disease affecting the respiratory system, from the nose and throat to the airways and lungs, including infections, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, respiratory tract neoplasms, respiratory irritation from inhaled substances, severe respiratory illness such as pneumonia, respiratory complications of other conditions and central respiratory depression from drugs or brain injury; respiratory diseases are a leading cause of illness and death worldwide. The model gives general information and routes people with symptoms to clinicians or emergency services.
What it is for: Not applicable; a disease category.
It can be explain the category; relay kinds and burden; route to care and emergencies; distinguish related categories.
Distinguishing features
Respiratory system
Infectious and non-infectious
High global burden
Preventable causes
What it looks like
Not a visible object; diseases of the airways and lungs.
Physical character
COPD deaths worldwide: about 3.5 million per year - WHO
lower respiratory infections: leading infectious cause of death note
lung cancer: leading cancer death note
registry parents: includes a misfiled cardiovascular medicine parent note
How it is recognised
Disease of the respiratory system
Respiratory infection, asthma, COPD, respiratory tract neoplasm, respiratory irritation, severe respiratory illness, respiratory complication, central respiratory depression
Cardiovascular diseases affect heart and vessels; breathing problems are symptoms; allergies may affect other organs
