Incidence and Prevalence of Congenital Myopathies ‐ A Population‐Based Study From Western Sweden
By including all patients identified, both alive and deceased, our estimated incidence figures are considerably higher than estimates of point prevalence, which only includes living patients. As the mortality in these diseases is significant, incidence figures better reflect the occurrence in the population and are important for evidence-based health care planning and resource allocation.
