Overview

Epidemiology and Demographics

Incidence/Prevalence

  • Epidemiological information is limited on amyloidosis suggesting differences between population based and case series data with respect to age and race.[1]

Mortality rate

  • In [year], the incidence of [disease name] is approximately [number range] per 100,000 individuals with a case-fatality rate/mortality rate of [number range]%.
  • The case-fatality rate/mortality rate of [disease name] is approximately [number range].

Age

  • In renal amyloidosis, is usually first diagnosed in average age of 65 years and it is uncommon before age of 40.[2][3]

Race

  • There is no racial predilection to [disease name].
  • [Disease name] usually affects individuals of the [race 1] race. [Race 2] individuals are less likely to develop [disease name].

Gender

  • In renal amyloidosis, the male to female ratio is approximately 2 to 1.[2]

Region

  • ALECT2 is more frequent in the United States area.[4]
  • AFib cases are most reported in Europe countries.
