Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of essential tremor increases with age.
- Incidence of essential tremor is 23.7 per 100,000 annually[1].
- The incidence of Parkinson's disease is in the range of 8 to 18 per 100,000 people yearly[2].
Prevalence
- The prevalence of essential tremor is approximately 0.4% to 5.6%[3].
- Seven million people worldwide and one million people in the United States are suffering from Parkinson's disease.
Age
- Essential tremor has bimodal incidence according to age, early in life especially second decade, and then in older age groups. The incidence increases with age.
- Incidence of Parkinson's disease increases with age, 1% of the population over 60 are affected and 4% of the population over 80.
- Mean age-of-onset of Parkinson's disease is 60years[4].
Race
- Prevalence of Parkinson's disease is higher in Caucasians as compared to black or East and oriental populations[5].
Gender
- Males are more commonly affected by Parkinson's disease than [female]. The [male] to [female] ratio is approximately 3:2[6].
Region
- Parkinson's disease affects more Caucasians as compared to black or East and Southeast Asian populations[5].
