Overview

Epidemiology of the disease is different for different etiologies of FUO. It also depends on the age of the patient, environmental and occupational exposure, Immune system of patient, Socioeconomic status.

Infectious causes are more prevalent in Immunocompromised individuals and those living in underdeveloped countries while non infectious causes are more prevalent in immunocompetent individuals and those living in developed countries.[1][2]

Epidemiology and Demographics

Epidemiology of the disease is different for different etiologies of FUO. It also depends on the age of the patient, environmental and occupational exposure, Immune system of patient, Socioeconomic status.

Infectious causes are more prevalent in Immunocompromised individuals and those living in underdeveloped countries while non infectious causes are more prevalent in immunocompetent individuals and those living in developed countries.
