Overview

Epidemiology and Demographics

Various studies have found epidemiological data based on time and population as mentioned:[1][2][3][4]

Incidence

  • In 2000, the incidence/prevalence of nephrolithiasis was estimated to be 116 cases per 100,000 individuals in the United States.[5]

Prevalence

  • The prevalence of nephrolithiasis is approximately 1116 per 100,000 individuals worldwide.
  • It has increased from every 1 in 20 to 1 in 11 person in United States has kidney stones.[6]
  • According to American Journal of Kidney disease, 2016, 8% of women and 16% of men are developing nephrolithiasis by the age of 70 years.
  • According to 2000 National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey of the United State,s there is an annual burden of more than 1,100,000 emergency department visits with a primary diagnosis of renal calculus or colic.[7]

Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate

  • "There is no independent association of prevalent kidney stone disease with all-cause and CV mortality."[8]

Age

  • Patients of all age groups may develop nephrolithiasis.
  • The incidence of nephrolithiasis increases with age.[9]
  •  At initial diagnosis, the mean age was 44.8 years in men and 40.9 years in women

Race

  • Nephrolithiasis usually affects individuals of the white/Caucasian ethnicity.

Gender

  • Males are more commonly affected by nephrolithiaisis than females. The male to female ratio is approximately 2 to 1.[10]
  • The trend keeps on changing , a study in 2010 claims the incidence rate ratio of men to women with urinary tract stones has narrowed from 3.4 to 1.3.[11]
  • Females are having increasing incidence rates owing to increase lifestyle disease like obesity.

Region

  • The majority of nephrolithiasis cases are reported in southeast belt of the United States.
  • The number of cases increase from north to south and from west to east
  • The states of North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Tennessee are considered in the “stone belt.”[12]
  • The ambient temperature and sunlight levels as risk factors for stones and differences in exposure to temperature and sunlight and beverages are also responsible for geographic variability.[13]
