Overview

The incidence of Immune thrombocytopenia is approximately 1.6- 3.9 per 100,000 adult individuals worldwide and 1.1- 5.8 per 100,000 individuals among children. The overall incidence rate was higher in women (4.4 per 100,000 person year) than men ( 3.4 per 100,000 person year).
In year 2014, the incidence of Immune thrombocytopenia among French people is approximately 2.9/ 100,000 person years with higher incidence among women. The incidence has bimodal distribution with first peak among male children among 1-5 years and men over 75 years of age. However the distribution for women is constant.^[1] ^[2]

The prevalence of chronic immune thrombocytopenia ( lasting longer than 12 months) is approximately 9.5-11.2 per 100,000 individuals in the United States.
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.

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].

Patients of all age groups may develop Immune thrombocytopenia.
The Prevalence of chronic Immune thrombocytopenia increases with age; the childhood ITP remits spontaneously.
Immune thrombocytopenia commonly affects individuals younger than 5 years of age.
[Chronic disease name] is usually first diagnosed among [age group].
[Acute disease name] commonly affects [age group].

There is no racial predilection to [disease name].
[Disease name] usually affects individuals of the [race 1] race. [Race 2] individuals are less likely to develop [disease name].

The majority of Immune thrombocytopenia cases are reported in January and the minority in summer in all age group probably due to viral infection..^[1] ^[2]

[Disease name] is a common/rare disease that tends to affect [patient population 1] and [patient population 2].
