Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence/Prevalence
- Epidemiological information is limited on amyloidosis suggesting differences between population based and case series data with respect to variables such as age and racial patterns.[1]
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
- In renal amyloidosis, is usually first diagnosed in average age of 65 years and it is uncommon before age of 40.[2][3]
Race
- 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].
Gender
- In renal amyloidosis, the male to female ratio is approximately 2 to 1.[2]
Region
- ALECT2 is more frequent in the United States area.[4]
- AFib cases are most reported in Europe countries.
