Overview

The incidence cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome is approximately 0.0343 per 100,000 individuals aged 16 years old or younger worldwide. The prevalence of cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome is approximately 0.1 per 100,000 individuals worldwide. CAPS is usually first presented in the infancy. There is no racial predilection to cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome. Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome affects men and women equally. The majority of CAPS cases are reported in Europe.

Epidemiology and Demographics

Incidence

  • The incidence cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome is approximately 0.0343 per 100,000 individuals aged 16 years old or younger worldwide.[1]
