All evidence of human passage.

A medical term used to describe some evidence that can be found when a person is examined. For example, an enlarged liver felt when a doctor examines the abdomen could be a sign of liver disease.

Objective evidence of a disease, deformity or an effect induced by an agent, perceptible to an examining physician.

The actual presence of the causal organism in association with the disease symptoms.[1

(n) objective evidence of an illness or condition. Signs are more definitive and obvious than a symptom, which is usually considered more subjective.

A characteristic of a disease; "signs" are seen by observation, while "symptoms" are characteristics reported by the patient; thus, animals exhibit signs of disease, while human beings report symptoms.

physical changes which can be observed as a consequence of an illness or disease

an indication of the existence of something; any objective evidence of a disease, i.e., such evidence as is perceptible to the examiner, as opposed to the subjective sensations of the patient (symptom). Sign, not symptom should be used to describe lesions or conditions observed in coral, as the ability to convey sensations (feelings) is not a characteristic of coral.

(nimitta) 1)object of attention, 2) basis of recognition of the object, 3) an occasion for being led astray by objectivity.

something a physician sees during a physical exam which indicates some disease process

The manifestation of disease by the presence of structures ofthe causal agent. Soilborne - Refers to many fungi able to survive in the soil as saprophytes. Also called "soil inhabitant."

An indication of disease that a doctor recognises and patient does not

is any abnormality which indicates the presence of a disease and found by the doctor on his examination of a person. It is an objective symptom, whereas a symptom itself is subjective.

Objective evidence of a disease as determined by laboratory results, an x-ray finding, or the physician's physical examination.

(medicine) any objective evidence of the presence of a disorder or disease; "there were no signs of asphixiation"

Observable evidence of disease.

Physical evidence of disease.

visible evidence of a disease organism, (e.g., mycelium, fruiting bodies).

Any abnormality indicative of a disease, discoverable on examination of the patient, i.e., an objective indication of disease.

is something unusual, or abnormal, that someone who is examining you can observe and measure. In this sense, signs are objective and quantitative. Examples are: loss of muscle power in a foot; evidence of reduced mobility when bending forward; scoliosis which can be precisely measured in degrees. (See "symptom.")

an indication that is observed by the doctor, or measured, but not apparent to the patient

Any objective evidence of disease. Gross blood in the stool is a sign of disease. It can be recognized by the patient, doctor, nurse, or others. In contrast, a symptom is, by its nature, subjective. Abdominal pain is a symptom. It is something only the patient can know. See the entire definition of Sign

A sign is an entity which signifies another entity. A natural sign is an entity which bears a causal relation to the signified entity, as thunder is a sign of storm. A conventional sign signifies by agreement, as a full stop signifies the end of a sentence.

A 30 degree section of the zodiac associated with one of the 12 constellations that intersect the ecliptic (the Sun's path through the stars). Each sign is associated with certain qualities, characteristics, experiences and events. Each sign is a unique combination of Element and Modality. See also: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces elsewhere in the Glossary for more information about each sign. See also Rulerships.

(astrology) one of 12 equal areas into which the zodiac is divided

Astrological term for any of 12 equal sections along the ecliptic, each of length 30 degrees. Because of precession, these signs today are no longer lined up with the constellations from which they received their names.

a thing which causes us to think of something beyond the impression the things makes on the senses

In classical semiotics, anything interpreted as "standing for" something other than itself. In algebraic semiotics, a sign is an instance of a sort, and generally is the result given specific parameters of a constructor for that sort. Links: [CD] sign , [S4B] sign.

The smallest unit (such as a word, image, or sound) of communication to which meaning is attached. In order to be a sign, the unit must meet three criteria: it must possess a physical form, it must refer to something else, and it must do so in a way that is recognizable to others. The sustained and large-scale interconnection of signs facilitates the construction of shared sign systems that enables individuals to communicate with other members of their culture in a comprehensible manner.

something that is meaningful to someone

As distinct from a symbol, a sign stands for something concrete. For example, the "+" sign serves to identify the process of arithmetic. The letters used to compose this definition are also signs.

anythings that tells the trapper something about the country he's in.

In semiotics, a sign is generally defined as, "...something that stands for something else, to someone in some capacity." (Marcel Danesi and Paul Perron, "Analyzing Cultures"). It may be understood as a discrete unit of meaning, whether denotative or connotative.

There are many models of the linguistic sign (see also sign (semiotics)). A classic model is the one by the Swiss linguist Ferdinand de Saussure.

(a) The triad composed of object, sign(representamen), and interpretant. For Peirce, every conceivable experience is mediated through signs. (b) One of the three elements of the Sign(a). The Sign(b) is sometimes called the representamen. The Sign(b) (= representamen) represents the object to its interpretant. It is very important not to confuse sign in sense (a) with sign in sense (b): they are not at all the same thing! The former is a triad of three elements; the latter is one of those three elements.

Any symbol or form that has a conventional meaning recognised within a particular community.

When we recognise a sign – by eye or ear – we recognise both its pattern and its meaning.

This name applied transactionally to organic-environmental behavior. To be understood always as sign-process; never with localization of sign either in organism or in environment separately taken. Hence never as if signs were of two kinds: the natural and the artificial. Coterminous with behavioral process, and thus technically characteristic of all behaviors viewed in their knowing-known aspects. Distinctive as technical mark of separation of behavioral from physiological process, with the disjointure of research in the present day on this borderline more marked than that on the borderline between physics and physiology, where biophysics is making strong advance. Evolutionary stages and contemporary levels differentiated into signal, name, and symbol.
