Description

Types of pathogenesis include

microbial infection, inflammation, malignancy and tissue breakdown. For example, bacterial pathogenesis is the process by which bacteria cause infectious illness.[citation needed

Most diseases are caused by multiple processes. For example, certain

renal transplant, which requires immunosuppression), Streptococcus pneumoniae is spread through contact with respiratory secretions, such as saliva, mucus, or cough droplets from an infected person and colonizes the upper respiratory tract and begins to multiply.[2][3][4]

The pathogenic mechanisms of a disease (or condition) are set in motion by the underlying causes, which if controlled would allow the disease to be

interdisciplinary field of molecular pathological epidemiology.[6] Molecular pathological epidemiology can help to assess pathogenesis and causality by means of linking a potential risk factor to molecular pathologic signatures of a disease.[7] Thus, the molecular pathological epidemiology paradigm can advance the area of causal inference.[8]
