Abstract

The presence of patients affected by different diseases at the same time is becoming a major health and societal issue. In clinical literature, this phenomenon is known as comorbidity, and it can be studied from the administrative databases of general practitioners’ prescriptions based on diagnoses. In this contribution, we propose a two-step strategy for analyzing comorbidity patterns. In the first step, we investigate the prescription data with association rules extracted by a two-mode network (or bipartite graph) to find frequent itemsets that can be used to assist physicians in making diagnoses. In the second step, we derive a one-mode network of the diseases codes with association rules, and we perform the k-core partitioning algorithm to identify the most relevant and connected parts in the network corresponding to the most related pathologies.

The interactome [26] is the whole set of molecular interactions in a given cell, or individual, and it is represented as a graph of the biological network. It includes all the interactions between molecules belonging to different biochemical families, such as nucleic acids, proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, hormones, etc. Interactomics [18] is a discipline at the intersection of bio-informatics and biology that deals with the study of networks of interactions and their consequences.
