Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence/prevalence of [disease name] 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 exact incidence of the radiation proctitis is not available and largely depends on number of factors such as:
- the dose of radiation,
- area of exposure,
- method of delivery,
- the use of cytoprotective agents,
- dose fraction regimens, and
- the interval between sessions.
- The incidence rate of radiation proctitis in patients treated with the external beam radiation therapy is estimated to range from 2% to 39%, depending upon the severity and grade of proctitis.[1]
- The incidence rate of radiation proctitis in patients treated with brachytherapy is 8% to 13% when used alone and up to 21% in combination with other modalities.[2]
- Smith et al. reported a 20% incidence of RP with a radiation dose up to 7.500 Cgy and a 60% incidence of RP with doses greater than 7.500 Cgy[3]
Prevalence
- The incidence/prevalence of [disease name] 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.
- The reported incidence of any transient acute radiation proctitis is thought to range from 50% to 100%[4]
- The incidence of chronic radiation proctitis is estimated at 2%–20%[5]
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop [disease name].
- The incidence of [disease name] increases with age; the median age at diagnosis is [#] years.
- [Disease name] commonly affects individuals younger than/older than [number of years] years of age.
- [Chronic disease name] is usually first diagnosed among [age group].
- [Acute disease name] commonly affects [age group].
Race
- There is no racial predilection to radiation proctitis.
Gender
- Radiation proctitis affects men and women equally.
