A Connection between Factors Causing Diseases and Diseases Frequencies:
Its Application in Finding Disease Causes
Author(s): Alan Olan*
In this work an author is building a theoretical model of a non-infectious disease, which shows that there is a
connection between diseases frequencies and their causes. This connection allows to determine how many factors
are causing a specific non-infectious disease if we know the disease rate in a population. The model shows that for
a majority of non-infectious diseases there are at least two simultaneously acting factors which cause a disease and
in many cases there are more factors simultaneously involved. This helps researchers to improve an understanding
of specific disease causation and physiological mechanisms behind it and will lead to a research for additional, still
missing causes to complete these mechanisms. This work determines a number of simultaneously acting factors
causing diseases such as a breast cancer, Coronary Heart Disease (CHD), multiple.. View More»
