Statistics by Country for Pernicious anemia
|
About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Pernicious anemia:
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 Pernicious anemia 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 Pernicious anemia 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 Pernicious anemia in that region.
About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Pernicious anemia: The word 'prevalence' of Pernicious anemia usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Pernicious anemia at any given time (i.e. people with Pernicious anemia). The term 'incidence' of Pernicious anemia means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Pernicious anemia diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Pernicious anemia). 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. |

Extrapolation of Prevalence Rate of Pernicious anemia to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above prevalence rate for Pernicious anemia to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these prevalence extrapolations for Pernicious anemia are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual prevalence of Pernicious anemia in any region:
