      abstract     = {Infectious diseases continue to play an important role for
                      disease perception, health-economic considerations and
                      public health in Germany. In recent years, infectious
                      diseases have been linked to the development of
                      non-communicable diseases. Analyses of the German National
                      Cohort (GNC) may provide deeper insights into this issue and
                      pave the way for new targeted approaches in disease
                      prevention.The aim was to describe the tools used to assess
                      infectious diseases and to present initial data on
                      infectious disease frequencies, as well as to relate the GNC
                      assessment tools to data collection methods in other studies
                      in Germany.As part of the baseline examination, questions
                      regarding infectious diseases were administered using both
                      an interview and a self-administered touchscreen
                      questionnaire. Data from the initial 101,787 GNC
                      participants were analysed.In the interview, $0.2\%$
                      (HIV/AIDS) to $8.6\%$ (shingles) of respondents reported
                      ever having a medical diagnosis of shingles, postherpetic
                      neuralgia (in cases where shingles was reported), hepatitis
                      B/C, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis or sepsis if treated in
                      hospital. In the questionnaire, $12\%$ (cystitis) to $81\%$
                      (upper respiratory tract infections) of respondents reported
                      having experienced at least one occurrence of upper or lower
                      respiratory tract infections, gastrointestinal infections,
                      cystitis or fever within the past 12 months.The
                      cross-sectional analyses of data and tools presented here -
                      for example on determinants of susceptibility to
                      self-reported infections - can be anticipated from the year
                      2021 onward. Beyond that, more extensive research into
                      infectious disease epidemiology will follow, particularly
                      once analyses of GNC biological materials have been
                      performed.},
