Comorbiditykat
Comorbiditykat is a hypothetical framework and data resource intended to facilitate the study of comorbidity patterns across diseases. The term blends comorbidity with kat, a provisional acronym standing for Knowledge And Tagging, signaling a focus on structured annotation and retrieval of co-occurrence information. In this conceptual model, diseases are represented as nodes in a network, with edges weighted by measures of co-occurrence, temporal association, or clinical impact. The platform aims to integrate diverse data sources and harmonize them with standardized vocabularies such as ICD-10 and SNOMED CT.
Analytical methods encompass descriptive statistics, network analysis, association rule mining, and machine learning techniques to identify
Applications include risk prediction for adverse outcomes, prioritization of multimorbidity guidelines, and public health surveillance. Governance
As a fictional construct, comorbiditykat has no formal implementation, but it reflects ongoing interest in interoperable
