Summary

Introduction

Comorbid is defined in medicine as existing simultaneously with and usually independently of another medical condition. It is very hard to observe the association of two or more symptoms at one moment. An apocryphal story often told to illustrate the concept of co-occurrence is about beer and diaper sales. It usually goes along with both beer and diaper sales which were strongly correlated [3,4,5] in a market place. All possible pairs of our observed phenomena can be combined and analyzed using computer techniques. We have not seen any computer algorithms that help us selecting the most possible pairscooccurred with each other. Identifying journal features is important and meaningful, but no journal uses Medline library to extract journal publication information or to report evidence-based journal characteristics using Social Network Analysis (SNA)
