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
  • Chronic Gastritis:
    • The incidence of new cases of H.pylori infection each year ranges from 3 to 10% of the population in developing countries
    • The incidence of new cases of H.pylori infection each year is 0.5 percent in developed countries
  • It has been observed that with advancing age, the incidence of H.pylori infection is increased.

Prevalence

  • Acute Gastritis: The prevalence of eosinophilic gastritis is approximately 6.3 per 100,000 individuals worldwide [1]

Case-fatality rate/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

  • Acute Gastritis is observed in all age groups.
  • 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 [disease name].
  • [Disease name] usually affects individuals of the [race 1] race. [Race 2] individuals are less likely to develop [disease name].

Gender

  • In Acute Gastritis, females are usually more affected than men.
  • [Disease name] affects men and women equally.
  • [Gender 1] are more commonly affected by [disease name] than [gender 2]. The [gender 1] to [gender 2] ratio is approximately [number > 1] to 1.

Region

  • The majority of [disease name] cases are reported in [geographical region].
  • [Disease name] is a common/rare disease that tends to affect [patient population 1] and [patient population 2].

Developed Countries

  • The incidence of new cases of H.pylori infection each year is 0.5 percent in developed countries
  • In developed countries such as the United States, children acquire the H.pylori infection at a rate of about less than 1% per year

Developing Countries

  • In the developing countries, the prevalence of H. pylori infection is observed to be on a higher side when compared to developed nations
  • The incidence of new cases of H.pylori infection each year ranges from 3 to 10% of the population in developing countries
  • In the developing countries, children in the age group of 2 to 8 years acquire the H.pylori infection at a rate of about 10% per year
