Collect and represent data to show the incidence, prevalence and mortality rates of non-infectious diseases
Collect and represent data to show the incidence, prevalence and mortality rates of non-infectious diseases, for example:
- Nutritional diseases
- Diseases caused by environmental exposure
Incidence, Prevalence and Mortality rates of Hypertension:
- Incidence:
- In an earlier analysis of the Framingham Heart Study cohort (n = 5209, follow up= 30 years), the incidence of hypertension over a 30-year period increased with age in both genders (31). Between the ages of 30–39 years, the 2-year incidence rates were 3.3% in men and 1.5% in women, and between 70–79 years of age, the 2-year hypertension incidence rates were 6.2% in men and 8.6% in women.
- Prevalence:
- Prevalence of Hypertension by Sex
- The age-adjusted prevalence of hypertension was 34%, 25.4%, and 23.2% for men and 31%, 21%, and 21.6% for women among blacks, whites, and Mexican Americans, respectively.
- NHANES III reported the prevalence of hypertension was 12% for white men and 5% for white women aged 18-49 years.
- Prevalence of Hypertension by Race or Ethnicity
- Black individuals have a higher prevalence and incidence of hypertension than white persons. The prevalence of hypertension has been reported to be increased by 50% in blacks.
- In comparative assessments of black people and Asians, strokes are more common in black people, but coronary heart disease is more common in Asians. Both groups have a higher incidence of chronic renal failure than white people, but this is more due to hypertension in black people and diabetes in Asians.

Incidence, Prevalence and Mortality rates of Asthma:
- Incidence:
- In 2011, the age-standardized incidence rate of asthma for all ages and both sexes was 3.86 (3.67, 4.04) per 1,000 population.
- Between 1996 and 2011, asthma incidence rates decreased for all age groups.
- The largest decreases in incidence were observed between 2005 and 2008, particularly among young children under the age of five. This steep drop in asthma incidence between 2005 and 2008 corresponds with an improvement in air quality over the same time period.
