This case-sensitive code system http://www.hl7europe.org/medtechlabel/CodeSystem/Relationship defines the following codes in a Is-A hierarchy:

CodeDisplayDefinition
derivedFrom derived from data element from which it is derived
supportedBy supported by the source is supported by the target item in some way
addresses addresses what issue is solved, and how?
hasComponent has component reference to parts of the source item; reverse of partOf
appliesTo applies to the source applies to the target
constrains constrains the source constrains the target element
conformsTo conforms to is conformant to certain regularities
mapsTo maps to maps to
equivalentTo equivalent to the source concept is equivalent to the target concept
broaderThan broader than the source concept is broader, i.e. more general, in its meaning than the equivalent to the target concept
narrowerThan narrower than the source concept is narrower, i.e. more specialized, in its meaning than the to the target concept
overlapsWith overlaps with the source concept overlaps in the meaning with the target concept
conflictsWith conflicts with the source concept is in conflict with the target concept
supersedes supersedes supersedes
hasFormat has format the provided information has to fulfill certain representation formats
hasValue has Value a specific data element must (or can) have a certain value
hasDifferentValue has a different value a specific data element must (or can) have a different value
mentions mentions an unqualified relationship that something is mentioned from somewhere
defines defines provides a formal definition
provides provides who is providing which information
is-a specialisation identifies a more general element
synonym is a synonym is a synonym for another term
identifiedBy identified by can be identified by
identifies identfies identifies
