Among a large racially and ethnically diverse US population, the prevalence of diagnosed ADPKD between 2002 and 2018 was 42.6 per 100,000 persons. ADPKD prevalence (per 100,000) was higher in (non-Hispanic) White (63.2) and Black (73.0) patients compared with Hispanic (39.9) and Asian (48.9) patients. Given the variable penetrance of ADPKD, our findings suggest race may be a factor in the clinical presentation and diagnosis of ADPKD.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
