Statistics by Country for Phenylketonuria
|
About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Phenylketonuria:
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 Phenylketonuria 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 Phenylketonuria 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 Phenylketonuria in that region.
About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Phenylketonuria: The word 'prevalence' of Phenylketonuria usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Phenylketonuria at any given time (i.e. people with Phenylketonuria). The term 'incidence' of Phenylketonuria means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Phenylketonuria diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Phenylketonuria). 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. |
Incidence (annual) of Phenylketonuria: 1 of every 10,000 infants in the United States (NIDCD)
Incidence Rate for Phenylketonuria: approx 1 in 10,000 or 0.01% or 27,200 people in USA [about data]
Extrapolation of Incidence Rate for Phenylketonuria to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above incidence rate for Phenylketonuria to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these incidence extrapolations for Phenylketonuria are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual incidence of Phenylketonuria in any region:
