Prevalence rate (ratio) is the total number of all individuals who have an attribute or disease at a particular time (or during a particular period) divided by the population at risk of having the attribute or disease at this point in time or midway through the period.

 Definition of Nosology - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
Diseases can be classified by etiology (cause), pathogenesis (mechanism in which the agent causes disease) or by symptom.
Alternatively, diseases can be classified according to the organ system they involve, but this is often complicated as many diseases affect multiple organs.
One of the main problems with nosologies is that diseases often cannot be defined and classified clearly especially when pathogenesis or causality is not known.
