Property	Expected Type	Description
Properties from schema:MedicalCondition
`schema:associatedAnatomy`	schema:AnatomicalStructure or schema:AnatomicalSystem or schema:SuperficialAnatomy	The anatomy of the underlying organ system or structures associated with this entity.
`schema:cause`	schema:MedicalCause	An underlying cause. More specifically, one of the causative agent(s) that are most directly responsible for the pathophysiologic process that eventually results in the occurrence.
`schema:differentialDiagnosis`	schema:DDxElement	One of a set of differential diagnoses for the condition. Specifically, a closely-related or competing diagnosis typically considered later in the cognitive process whereby this medical condition is distinguished from others most likely responsible for a similar collection of signs and symptoms to reach the most parsimonious diagnosis or diagnoses in a patient.
`schema:epidemiology`	schema:Text	The characteristics of associated patients, such as age, gender, race etc.
`schema:expectedPrognosis`	schema:Text	The likely outcome in either the short term or long term of the medical condition.
`schema:naturalProgression`	schema:Text	The expected progression of the condition if it is not treated and allowed to progress naturally.
`schema:pathophysiology`	schema:Text	Changes in the normal mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions that are associated with this activity or condition.
`schema:possibleComplication`	schema:Text	A possible unexpected and unfavorable evolution of a medical condition. Complications may include worsening of the signs or symptoms of the disease, extension of the condition to other organ systems, etc.
`schema:possibleTreatment`	schema:MedicalTherapy	A possible treatment to address this condition, sign or symptom.
`schema:primaryPrevention`	schema:MedicalTherapy	A preventative therapy used to prevent an initial occurrence of the medical condition, such as vaccination.
`schema:riskFactor`	schema:MedicalRiskFactor	A modifiable or non-modifiable factor that increases the risk of a patient contracting this condition, e.g. age, coexisting condition.
`schema:secondaryPrevention`	schema:MedicalTherapy	A preventative therapy used to prevent reoccurrence of the medical condition after an initial episode of the condition.
`schema:signOrSymptom`	schema:MedicalSignOrSymptom	A sign or symptom of this condition. Signs are objective or physically observable manifestations of the medical condition while symptoms are the subjective experience of the medical condition.
`schema:stage`	schema:MedicalConditionStage	The stage of the condition, if applicable.
`schema:subtype`	schema:Text	A more specific type of the condition, where applicable, for example 'Type 1 Diabetes', 'Type 2 Diabetes', or 'Gestational Diabetes' for Diabetes.
`schema:typicalTest`	schema:MedicalTest	A medical test typically performed given this condition.
Properties from schema:MedicalEntity
`schema:code`	schema:MedicalCode	A medical code for the entity, taken from a controlled vocabulary or ontology such as ICD-9, DiseasesDB, MeSH, SNOMED-CT, RxNorm, etc.
`schema:guideline`	schema:MedicalGuideline	A medical guideline related to this entity.
`schema:medicineSystem`	schema:MedicineSystem	The system of medicine that includes this MedicalEntity, for example 'evidence-based', 'homeopathic', 'chiropractic', etc.
`schema:recognizingAuthority`	schema:Organization	If applicable, the organization that officially recognizes this entity as part of its endorsed system of medicine.
`schema:relevantSpecialty`	schema:MedicalSpecialty	If applicable, a medical specialty in which this entity is relevant.
`schema:study`	schema:MedicalStudy	A medical study or trial related to this entity.
Properties from schema:Thing
`schema:additionalType`	schema:URL	An additional type for the item, typically used for adding more specific types from external vocabularies in microdata syntax. This is a relationship between something and a class that the thing is in. In RDFa syntax, it is better to use the native RDFa syntax - the 'typeof' attribute - for multiple types. Schema.org tools may have only weaker understanding of extra types, in particular those defined externally.
`schema:alternateName`	schema:Text	An alias for the item.
`schema:description`	schema:Text	A short description of the item.
`schema:image`	schema:ImageObject or schema:URL	An image of the item. This can be a URL or a fully described ImageObject.
`schema:name`	schema:Text	The name of the item.
`schema:potentialAction`	schema:Action	Indicates a potential Action, which describes an idealized action in which this thing would play an 'object' role.
`schema:sameAs`	schema:URL	URL of a reference Web page that unambiguously indicates the item's identity. E.g. the URL of the item's Wikipedia page, Freebase page, or official website.
`schema:url`	schema:URL	URL of the item.

Instances of schema:MedicalCondition may appear as values for the following properties

Property	On Types	Description
`schema:diagnosis`	schema:DDxElement	One or more alternative conditions considered in the differential diagnosis process.
`schema:healthCondition`	schema:PeopleAudience	Expectations for health conditions of target audience.
`schema:relatedCondition`	schema:AnatomicalStructure or schema:AnatomicalSystem or schema:SuperficialAnatomy	A medical condition associated with this anatomy.
`schema:usedToDiagnose`	schema:MedicalTest	A condition the test is used to diagnose.

<h1>Stable angina (angina pectoris)</h1>
Stable angina is a medical condition that affects the heart. The
most common causes are atherosclerosis and spasms of the
epicardial artery. Typical symptoms include:
<ul>
  <li>chest discomfort</li>
  <li>feeling of tightness, heaviness, or pain in the chest</li>
</ul>
Both stable angina and a heart attack result in chest pain, but
a heart attack will have chest pain lasting at least
10 minutes at rest, repeated episodes of chest pain at rest
lasting 5 or more minutes, or an accelerating pattern of chest
discomfort (episodes that are more frequent, severe,
longer in duration, and precipitated by minimal exertion).
<br>
Risk factors for stable angina include:
<ul>
  <li>Age</li>
  <li>Gender</li>
  <li>Systolic blood pressure</li>
  <li>Smoking</li>
  <li>Total cholesterol and/or cholesterol:HDL ratio</li>
  <li>Coronary artery disease</li>
</ul>
The initial treatment for stable angina is usually drug therapy
with aspirin, beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, and/or nitroglycerine.
Future episodes of stable angina can sometimes be prevented by
stopping smoking, weight management, and increased physical activity.
