Comorbidities and Infectious Diseases

Comorbidity is the presence of one or more additional diseases that often occur at the same time as the primary disease. Comorbidities represent the effects of other medical conditions that an individual patient may have, apart from the major condition of interest, and can be physiological or psychological in nature. In the context of mental health, comorbidities often refer to co-existing disorders such as depression and anxiety disorders. Comorbidity may indicate either co-existing but independent disease with other or related illnesses. The latter meaning of the term creates some overlap with the concept of complications. For example, in long-standing diabetes, it is not easy to determine whether coronary artery disease is an independent complication or a diabetic complication. Both diseases are highly multivariate and are likely to have both simultaneity and outcome aspects. The same applies to comorbidities during pregnancy.
