The phrase "adjust the incidence" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where you need to modify or change the frequency or occurrence of something, often in technical or scientific discussions.
Example: "To improve the experiment's accuracy, we need to adjust the incidence of the light beam hitting the sample."
Alternatives: "modify the frequency" or "alter the occurrence".
Based on this, Dimai et al. used a correction factor of 0.9 to adjust the incidence calculations for hip fractures in Austria [13].
For example, using cross-sectional parasite prevalence from peak transmission seasons to adjust the incidence over a longer period of time could result in an underestimate of malaria-attributable cases.
If you adjust the incidence increase when screening for statistical lead time, it will always give estimates of overdiagnosis close to zero because you subtract all clinical cancers that are diagnosed earlier as well as all overdiagnosed cancers from the incidence increase during screening [ 3].
The statistical analysis was performed using the R statistical package, version 2.10.1 (http://cran.r-project.org) Three models were used to adjust the incidence of hepatitis B: a generalized linear model (GLM) [ 16] with either Poisson or negative binomial distribution [ 17] and a generalized additive model (GAM) [ 18].
Generalized additive models (GAM) [16] were used to adjust the incidences and proportions along with 95% confidence intervals (CI).
Age standardized incidence rates were obtained by adjusting the incidence rate to the world population by a 5-year age group as described by Boyle and Parkin in the book "enregistrement des cancers principes et methodes" [27].
We adjusted the incidence of NTS for underascertainment in the number of patients presenting to KCH among children <5 years.
Quantifying such a compensatory drop is a less bias-prone method for adjusting the incidence increase for lead-time effects, as it makes no assumption about the average lead time.
We adjusted the incidence to account for the proportion of patients who were eligible for blood cultures but missed them and for the proportion of cultures that were contaminated, assuming the distribution of true pathogens in contaminated vials was represented by the distribution in uncontaminated vials.
To isolate the independent contributions of the conditions, we adjusted the incidence rates for age, sex, baseline measures of fasting glucose, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, triacylglycerol, HDL-cholesterol, smoking and the presence of the other health conditions in question.
A total of five patients developed grade 3 or higher neutropenia during the first cycle of chemotherapy in group B. A persistent NLR of >5 before the second cycle of chemotherapy remained an independent poor predictive marker of TTF and OS (both P < 0.01) after adjusting the incidence of grade 3 or higher neutropenia during the first cycle of chemotherapy.
