*What about when there's a diagnosis (A) which is a known risk factor for another diagnosis (B). But in fact B is influenced by other things, not only A. In this case, do NOT combine A and B. | *What about when there's a diagnosis (A) which is a known risk factor for another diagnosis (B). But in fact B is influenced by other things, not only A.

**Example: Diabetes is a risk factor for MI. But so are hypertension, hyperlipidemia and genetic factors. So here do NOT combine the MI with the diabetes (or the hypertension or hyperlipidemia) because it's not a direct arrow from diabetes to MI. But of course, do code all of these diagnoses that are present (in the example that means code the diabetes and the MI, and hypertension if present, etc). | **Example: Diabetes is a risk factor for MI.

Most infection codes require combined-coding of a pathogen (some have it implied, like [[Mumps]]), and some disorders can have a pathogen if their cause is infectious. See [[Bug required]] for details. | Most infection codes require combined-coding of a pathogen (some have it implied, like [[Mumps]]), and some disorders can have a pathogen if their cause is infectious.
