Translation

[Meaning] things which grow up in the aftermath of wounds.
Polybius [writes]: "where war is concerned, those who think straight must do what those who encounter illnesses do -- assign no less an importance to the later symptoms than to the initial conditions".¹

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ἐπιγενήματα· τὰ ἐξ ὑστέρου τοῖς τραύμασιν ἀναφυόμενα. Πολύβιος· δεῖ τοὺς ὀρθῶς βουλευομένους περὶ τοῦ πολέμου, καθάπερ καὶ τοὺς ἐν ταῖς ἀρρωστίαις, μηδὲν ἧττον τῶν ἐπιγενημάτων ποιεῖσθαι λόγον, ἢ τῶν ἐξ ἀρχῆς ὑποκειμένων παθῶν.

Notes (1)

The headword, neuter plural nominative, is presumably generated by the quotation given (which contains the genitive plural).
1Polybius fr. 41 Büttner-Wobst (but spelled with -nn- there); cf. generally omicron 601 (Stoic doctrine via Diogenes Laertius).
