title: [Periods and phases of disease in the context of predictive-preventive medicine, significance and principles of "integrative" diagnostics].
abstract: The authors emphasize the necessity of more exact staging of disease formation with special reference to distinguishing "pre-disease" and "post-disease" periods with the phases of rehabilitation, recovery or transition to the "inter-disease" period in case of a chronic process. Diagnostics of the latter period is of great importance for the identification of the pre-active phase and prevention of activation of the pathological process. The integrative diagnostics method is proposed for distinguishing between stages and phases of diseases.
