Overview

The incidence of parkinson disease is 8 to 18.6 per 100,000 person-years. The prevalence of Parkinson disease is about 0.3% in 40 years old people and older. According to this prevalence currently we have 7.5 million people affected by this disease. The prevalence of PD can rise with age. In 40 to 49 years old people the prevalence is 41 per 100,000 and in 80 years old and older people its 1900 per 100,000 people. Some studies suggest that men have a higher risk of developing Parkinson disease than women. In the study of Stephen K. Van Den Eeden and colleges it was suggested that the incidence of PD from higher to lower is in Hispanic, non-Hispanic whites and blacks.
