The [[incidence]] of cystic fibrosis is approximately 1 in 2500 livebirths. It is a life-limiting disease (100% mortality rate), and a cure for the disease remains elusive. Most patients with cystic fibrosis are diagnosed in first 2 years of life. The onset of symptoms is before the first month of life in 12%, between 1-6 months of age in 75%, and between 6-12 months of age in 7% of patients. Although cystic fibrosis has been reported in all racial and [[Ethnic group|ethnic groups]], it mostly affects Caucasians of Northern European descent. It affects men and women equally. | |||

Overview
The incidence of cystic fibrosis is approximately 1 in 2500 livebirths. It is a life-limiting disease (100% mortality rate), and a cure for the disease remains elusive. Most patients with cystic fibrosis are diagnosed in first 2 years of life. The onset of symptoms is before the first month of life in 12%, between 1-6 months of age in 75%, and between 6-12 months of age in 7% of patients. Although cystic fibrosis has been reported in all racial and ethnic groups, it mostly affects Caucasians of Northern European descent. It affects men and women equally.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of cystic fibrosis is approximately 40 in 100,000 live births worldwide.
- The incidence of cystic fibrosis is approximately 25 in 100,000 newborns in the US.[1][2]
Prevalence
- Cystic fibrosis affects more than 30,000 people in the United States and 80,000 people worldwide.[3]
Mortality rate
- Cystic fibrosis is a life-limiting disease (100% mortality rate), and a cure for the disease remains elusive.[4]
Age
- Most patients with cystic fibrosis are diagnosed in first 2 years of life. The onset of symptoms is before the first month of life in 12%, between 1-6 months of age in 75%, and between 6-12 months of age in 7% of patients.[5]
Race
- Although cystic fibrosis has been reported in all racial and ethnic groups, it mostly affects Caucasians of Northern European descent.
- Cystic fibrosis is the most lethal genetic disease among Caucasians
- Cystic fibrosis is approximately reported in different ethnic groups as follow:[6][7]
Prevalence of cystic fibrosis according to race | |
---|---|
Race | Prevalence (per 100,000 person years) |
Caucasian | 40 |
Hispanic | 7.4 |
African-American | 6.6 |
Gender
- Cystic fibrosis affects men and women equally. Women with cystic fibrosis have a shortened life expectancy compared to men.[8]
