Incidence (epidemiology) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (279 words)
The incidence of disease is defined as the number of new cases of disease occurring in a population during a defined time interval.
Incidence and incidence rate are not to be confused with prevalence, which is defined as the number of individuals with a certain disease in a population at a specified time divided by the number of individuals in the population at that time.
Incidence rate is useful for talking about diseases like chickenpox, which have a lifetime risk of almost one, since it is measured per unit time so can tell us when infections are likely to occur.
2. Quantifying disease in population (1888 words)
The incidence of a disease is the rate at which new cases occur in a population during a specified period.
Mortality is the incidence of death from a disease.
A crude incidence, prevalence, or mortality (death rate) is one that relates to results for a population taken as a whole, without subdivision or refinement.
