Suwabe T, Shukoor S, Chamberlain AM, et al. - The Rochester Epidemiology Project and radiology databases of Mayo Clinic and Olmsted Medical Center (healthcare providers for Olmsted County) were sought to recognize all people meeting diagnostic criteria for definite, likely, and potential autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) in order to report incidence rates in Olmsted County, Minnesota, of pervasiveness of ADPKD. Compared with those reported in the literature, the point prevalence of definite and likely ADPKD noted in this study was greater, though it was lower in comparison with genetic prevalence on the basis of estimates of disease expectancy or on analysis of large population-sequencing databases.
