Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of acuired TTP is about 0.3 per 100,000 adult per year.[1]
- Data suggests the increased risk of TTP in black race and femal sex.[2]
Prevalence
- The incidence of TTP is approximately [number range] per 100,000 individuals worldwide.
- In [year], the incidence/prevalence of [disease name] was estimated to be [number range] cases per 100,000 individuals worldwide.
- The prevalence of [disease/malignancy] is estimated to be [number] cases annually.
Case-fatality rate/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
- Patients of all age groups may developTTP.
- The incidence of TTP increases with age; the median age at diagnosis is 40 years. TTP often occurs after 40 years.
Race
- TTP usually affects individuals of the [race 1] race. [Race 2] individuals are less likely to develop [disease name].
Gender
- Females are more commonly affected by TTP than men. The females to men ratio is approximately 2 to 1.[3]
Region
- The majority of TTP cases are reported in [geographical region].
- [Disease name] is a common/rare disease that tends to affect [patient population 1] and [patient population 2].
