In a nosological sense, the term phenotype can be used in clinical medicine for speaking about the presentation of a disease.〔Richard H. Scheuermann, Toward an Ontological Treatment of Disease and Diagnosis, Summit on Translat Bioinforma. 2009; 2009: 116–120. 2009 Mar 1. PMCID: PMC3041577〕 In this context, a clinical phenotype would be the presentation of a disease in a given individual. Some organizations have their own specialised meaning. For example, the COPD means "a single or combination of disease attributes that describe differences between individuals with COPD as they relate to clinically meaningful outcomes",〔Miravitlles, Clinical phenotypes of COPD: identification, definition and implications for guidelines. Arch Bronconeumol. 2012 Mar;48(3):86-98. doi: 10.1016/j.arbres.2011.10.007. Epub 2011 Dec 22.〕 but nearly all specialities use this meaning in some way, like in asthma research.〔Bel EH.
