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