Statistics by Country for Chronic Sinusitis
|
About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Chronic Sinusitis:
These statistics are calculated extrapolations of various prevalence or incidence rates
against the populations of a particular country or region.
The statistics used for prevalence/incidence of Chronic Sinusitis are typically based on US, UK, Canadian or Australian statistics.
This extrapolation calculation is automated and does not take into account any genetic, cultural, environmental, social, racial or other differences
across the various countries and regions for which the extrapolated Chronic Sinusitis statistics below refer to.
As such, these extrapolations may be highly inaccurate (especially for developing or third-world countries) and only give a general indication (or even a meaningless indication)
as to the actual prevalence or incidence of Chronic Sinusitis in that region.
About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Chronic Sinusitis: The word 'prevalence' of Chronic Sinusitis usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Chronic Sinusitis at any given time (i.e. people with Chronic Sinusitis). The term 'incidence' of Chronic Sinusitis means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Chronic Sinusitis diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Chronic Sinusitis). Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence, but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence. For more information see about prevalence and incidence statistics. |
Prevalance of Chronic Sinusitis: 12.6% (NIAID); 152 per 1000 - NHIS95
Prevalance Rate for Chronic Sinusitis: approx 1 in 7 or 12.60% or 34.3 million people in USA [about data]
Extrapolation of Prevalence Rate of Chronic Sinusitis to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above prevalence rate for Chronic Sinusitis to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these prevalence extrapolations for Chronic Sinusitis are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual prevalence of Chronic Sinusitis in any region:
