About statistics:

This page presents a variety of statistics about Cyclic vomiting syndrome. The term 'prevalence' of Cyclic vomiting syndrome usually refers to the estimated population of people who are managing Cyclic vomiting syndrome at any given time. The term 'incidence' of Cyclic vomiting syndrome refers to the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Cyclic vomiting syndrome 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.
