The greater sensitivity of PCR methods for viral diagnostics allows much more reliable incidence estimates, particularly for norovirus and sapovirus.
Regarding the incidence of mucosal melanomas in specific parts of the body, it has been shown that the lesions of oral cavity are more frequent in Japanese, where they account for 35% of all mucosal melanomas, which is much more that the incidence of mucosal melanomas in whites, at 3.6%, reported worldwide.
However, the ability to record statistically significant changes in BED-estimates of incidence requires samples sizes much larger than are routinely used in existing surveys [21], [22], [36] (e.g. samples of ∼50,000 individuals per sero-survey in Zambia for a 25% reduction in incidence, and much more in settings with lower incidence).
Clearly, we must do more, MUCH more, to reduce the incidence of HIV among gay and bisexual men, and that work has to begin within our community.
Nonetheless, it must be noted that the prevalence of carriage changes much more gradually than the incidence of invasive disease [ 44].
By contrast, we observed much more erratic changes in incidence with P. malariae and P. ovale, not consistent with seasonal transmission.
In spite of the strong association between tumour invasiveness, the presence of uPAR in PB was uncovered to be much more intimate to the incidence of metastasis and could be an independent prognostic indicator for hematogenous metastasis.
What is peculiar about sub-Saharan Africa is that HIV incidence is much more common among women, particularly younger ones.
Asians and Caucasians have similar non-genetic risk factors for PE, and there is mounting evidence that PE affects Asians much more commonly than previously supposed; incidence, especially among high-risk patients, may approach that in Caucasians.
Prostate carcinoma incidence increases much more rapidly with age than other carcinomas, implying that 20 to 30 mutations are required for its development.
