Overview
The incidence of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis reported to be 1 in 125,000-250,000 children aged 10 years or younger. The median age at onset is 3 to 7 yrs. It affects males and females in the ratio of 1.3 to 1. There is no racial predilection to the development of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Epidemiology
- Average annual incidence is between 0.07 and 0.6 per 1,00,000 individuals per year[1] [2][3].
- Population based studies revealed a slightly lower incidence in the US and UK compared to Asian countries. The incidence of pediatric ADEM varies between 0.47/100000 and 0.64/100000 in the Asian countries compared to 0.07/100000 and 0.30/100000 in Europe and San Diego.
- The incidence seems to be increasing with the distance from the Equator.
Demographics
- ADEM is more common during childhood with a median age on onset between 5-8 years with a male predominance (1.8:1)
- The adult age of presentation ranges from 33 to 41 years without any gender predilection.
- No specific ethnic distribution has been described.
