Overview

Epidemiology and Demographics

  • The incidence of adrenal insufficiency is approximately 0.8 new cases per 100,000 individuals per year individuals in the developed world. [1]
  • The incidence of adrenal insufficiency in Europe is approximately 4.4 to 6.2 new cases per 100,000 individuals per year. [2]

Prevalence

  • The prevalence of adrenal insufficiency is approximately 4-11 cases per 100,000 individuals in the developed world. [3]
  • In 2016, Iceland reported the highest prevalence of 221 cases per 100,000 individuals. [4]

Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate

  • In [year], the incidence of [disease name] is approximately [number range] per 100,000 individuals with a case-fatality rate/mortality rate of [number range]%.
