description	Este artículo cuestiona la dicotomía entre realismo y constructivismo en la filosofía de la ciencia, argumentando que resulta insuficiente para comprender entidades biomédicas como el Alzheimer. A partir de esta limitación, se propone un nuevo concepto denominado resfactum para dar cuenta del modo de existencia del Alzheimer. Con él, se busca trascender la oposición entre lo “descubierto” y lo “construido”, para entender el Alzheimer como una entidad que articula simultáneamente mecanismos causales independientes, materialidad encarnada en cuerpos humanos e inteligibilidad mediada social e históricamente. Para ilustrar esta propuesta, se analiza el caso de la mutación PSEN1-E280A (Gen Paisa), responsable de una forma de Alzheimer hereditario de inicio precoz. Este análisis muestra que, aunque los procesos moleculares en esta condición operan al margen de la categorización humana, el Alzheimer existe en cerebros humanos y se configura socialmente mediante marcos diagnósticos, tecnologías de análisis y narrativas históricas e identitarias. Así, el artículo concluye argumentando que el resfactum ofrece un marco ontológico útil para el análisis de entidades biomédicas desde sus múltiples dimensiones.

From this limitation, a new concept termed resfactum is proposed to account for the mode of existence of Alzheimer’s. Through it, the aim is to transcend the opposition between the “discovered” and the “constructed,” in order to understand Alzheimer’s as an entity that simultaneously articulates independent causal mechanisms, materiality embodied in human bodies, and intelligibility mediated socially and historically. To illustrate this proposal, the case of the PSEN1-E280A mutation (Paisa mutation), responsible for a form of early-onset hereditary Alzheimer’s, is analyzed. This analysis shows that, although the molecular processes in this condition operate independently of human categorization, Alzheimer’s exists in human brains and is socially configured through diagnostic frameworks, analytical technologies, and historical and identity narratives. Thus, the article concludes by arguing that resfactum offers a useful ontological framework for the analysis of biomedical entities from their multiple dimensions.Universidad de Caldas2025-07-01T00:00:00Z2026-05-23T07:00:32Z2025-07-01T00:00:00Z2026-05-23T07:00:32Z2025-07-01Artículo de revistahttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501Textinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleJournal articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1application/pdf0124-6127https://repositorio.ucaldas.edu.co/handle/ucaldas/2702610.17151/difil.2025.26.47.72462-9596https://doi.org/10.17151/difil.2025.26.47.7https://revistasojs.ucaldas.edu.co/index.php/discusionesfilosoficas/article/view/11916spa4726Discusiones FilosóficasArboleda-Velásquez, J.
