“…Interestingly, we observed a higher incidence of GPA than has been previously reported in the US and in non‐US published data sets . In particular, compared to previously reported data, the annual US‐adjusted annual incidence of GPA increased from 0.83 cases per 100,000 in the early 1990s to 1.3 cases per 100,000 in the last 2 decades.…”

“…The only population‐based analysis of AAV frequency conducted in the US showed that the annual incidence of GPA (adjusted to the US population) was 0.83 cases per 100,000 population (95% confidence interval [95% CI] 0.25–1.42), roughly similar to estimates from northern Europe . Previous epidemiologic studies from the US have demonstrated discrepant prevalence rates for GPA, between 3.2 and 9.1 per 100,000 population .…”

“…The incidence of GPA also seems to vary by location, with higher incidence rates reported in most European countries, Australia, and the United States (6-14/million) compared to Japan (2/million) 4,5,8,9,28,31,32 . The incidence rates in some European countries (Spain and Lithuania) were low (2-5/million) 10,27,29,30 , as was the incidence rate in our population (4.1/million).…”

“…Estimates of the overall annual incidence range between 0.5 and 20 cases per 1 million persons, with a prevalence of 20–160 cases per 1 million persons . A small population‐based study in Olmsted County, Minnesota showed an annual incidence of 8 GPA cases per 1 million persons, but was limited by a small sample size (n = 8) . A larger US study using a national hospital discharge database demonstrated a prevalence of 26 GPA cases per 1 million persons based on 10,771 hospitalizations .…”
