- Health effects of particulate air pollution: A review of epidemiological evidence (2011, background): “Inflammatory processes in the central nervous system (CNS) are crucial in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD), the two most prevalent neurodegenerative diseases (Hirtz et al., 2007).”
- Evaluating drug targets through human loss-of-function genetic variation (2019, neutral): “The overall incidence of ALS is reported at ~1.6 – 2.2 per 100,000 per year 73,74 , so the incidence of SOD1 ALS might be estimated at ~0.024 – 0.073 per 100,000 per year.”
- Standards for epidemiologic studies and surveillance of epilepsy (2011, background): “Reported estimates of epilepsy occurrence vary substantially among populations studied, but, in sum, indicate that in developed countries, the annual incidence of epilepsy is nearly 50 per 100,000 population, whereas the prevalence approximates 700 per 100,000 (Hirtz et al., 2007).”
- Trends in psychopathology across the adolescent years: What changes when children become adolescents, and when adolescents become adults? (2011, background): “By adolescence, rates of the latter are quite low, probably less than 1% (Hirtz et al., 2007; Mustillo et al., 2003; Peterson, Pine, Cohen, & Brook, 2001).”
- An update on the prevalence of cerebral palsy: a systematic review and meta‐analysis (2013, background): “The prevalence estimate for preterm births varied significantly based on the denominator, though a decline in CP prevalence was observed with increased gestational age.(3,4) When reported as a proportion of neonatal survivors, the prevalence estimates were, as expected, larger than the corresponding”
