signs, symptoms and diagnostic criteria
clinical manifestations
cure, remission, chronicity, or death
outcomes
The "why" of the disease, what is the reason for it. May be complex or straight forward
etiology
also called cryptogenic, known in cause or origin
idiopathic
occurs as a results of a medical or surgical intervention (e.g. yeast infection after getting antibiotics)

this looks at the patterns of disease among groups or populations. this complement represents the
relationship between numerous population characteristics and looks at the incidence or prevalence of
diease
epidemiology
the number of new cases occurring in a given population with a given time period - usually a year. can
be expressed as a percentage
incidence
involves the number of cases existing (both old and new) at a given time period. Can be expressed as a
percentage
prevalence
involves the sequence of events that occurs between the stimulus events and the manifestations of the
disease.
pathogenesis
it is what tells an individual and their HCP that something is wrong. Also called "signs and symptoms'
clinical manifestations
