“…A similar approach was used in a study from Finland, where the incidence was 46 in females and 25 in males [8]. On the basis of data from a drug reimbursement register in Finland, the incidence of RA was 43 in females and 24 in males in 1995 [9]. In our study, the rates were close to the ones reported from Finland where data were collected from several sources including primary health care.…”

“…Using different sets of classification criteria, incidence rates per 100 000 person-years (PY) have in most studies without restrictions as to the age of the study population ranged from 26 to 58 in females, from 12 to 30 in males, and from 21 to 45 in females and males combined [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. RA is seen more often in females with an overall female to male ratio of two to three.…”

“…However, patients with AS who do not require or no longer require disease-specific pharmacologic treatment are not registered in this material, which could reflect a potential underestimate of AS incidence. However, the same group has conducted another survey on the incidence of rheumatic diseases, where the diagnosis of AS was confirmed by radiology, and found a similar figure for AS incidence (6.3 per 100,000 personyears) (17). Therefore, in spite of these differences in approach, the incidence of primary AS in Northern Norway based on hospitalized patients is comparable with the incidence of primary and secondary AS in Rochester, Minnesota and with the reported incidence of AS in Finland.…”

“…детей и распространен-ности в диапазоне от 1,89 до 25,7 на 100 тыс. детей во всем мире, включая Европу [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17], СКВ с ювенильным дебю-том попадает в Европе в категорию орфанных заболева-ний [18]. Ее низкая распространенность усложняет про-ведение полномасштабных клинических исследований и создание международных рекомендаций по лечению и мониторингу подобных пациентов.…”
