We calculated the normalised peak (peak AR/median AR) for datasets with a median AR greater than zero, to adjust approximately for differences in case definitions (this approach has been used elsewhere to adjust for intercity differences in case fatality proportions 5).

Considering the recent emergence of a rapidly progressing viral infection leading to encephalitis with high fatality proportion in children from India and the absence of any specific treatment, RNAi based interventions were explored to suppress CHPV infection in mice.
The case fatality proportion (CFP) was calculated as the number of deaths among the cases of influenza A that occurred during hospitalization or within six weeks of discharge divided by the total number of cases of influenza A among hospitalized pneumonia patients.
The case fatality proportion of hospitalised CAP patients was 9.8%.
In several other outbreaks, the case fatality proportion (CFP) has been substantial.
Among 174 CAP cases, 17 patients died (case fatality proportion = 9.8%); eight were aged < 65 years (CFP = 7.3%), and nine were aged ≥ 65 years (CFP = 15.8%).
In our study group, the proportion of the pregnant women among female patients was 33%, and the case fatality proportion was lower in pregnant women than the non-pregnant women.
The one-month case fatality proportion remained stable at 35% over the study period, and was associated with advanced age, like in our previous study from years 1995-1999 [ 29].
The case fatality proportion of deaths among case-patients with EHF confirmed by acute diagnostic specimens in this outbreak was 40%, a lower percentage than for other species of EBOV that have caused human outbreaks in Africa.
In addition to seasonal influenza, Indonesia has reported the highest number of influenza A (H5N1) cases worldwide (N = 139, December 2008; http://www.who.int), with a case fatality proportion reported between 75%and80%0% [ 19, 20].
Our crude mortality rate for MCC in 1995 2006 (0.04) is consistent with the 0.05 crude mortality rate for "endocrine carcinoma of the skin" for 1995 2002 reported by RARECARE, which, however, was not based on actual mortality data and was estimated based on incidence rates multiplied by the fatality proportion, under the assumption of constant incidence and survival rates (www.rarecare.eu).eu
