This table shows the annual incidence and prevalence rates. Total rates and rates stratified by age and gender are presented per 100,000 people between the ages 25 and 85 in Southern Israel. Prevalence cases were subjects that purchased APD during the year. Incidence cases for each year were assigned based on first purchase.
