About statistics:
This page presents a variety of statistics about Adrenal disorders.
The term 'prevalence' of Adrenal disorders usually refers to the estimated population
of people who are managing Adrenal disorders at any given time.
The term 'incidence' of Adrenal disorders refers to the annual diagnosis rate,
or the number of new cases of Adrenal disorders diagnosed each year.
Hence, these two statistics types can differ:
a short-lived disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence,
but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence.
