Prevalence and Incidence of Penile candidiasis


advertisement

About prevalence and incidence statistics: The term 'prevalence' of Penile candidiasis usually refers to the estimated population of people who are managing Penile candidiasis at any given time. The term 'incidence' of Penile candidiasis refers to the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Penile candidiasis diagnosed each year. Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short-lived 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.
