Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (Pseudotumor Cerebri): Descriptive Epidemiology in Rochester, Minn, 1976 to 1990
Abstract
The medical records-linkage system of the Mayo Clinic was used to identify cases of idiopathic intracranial hypertension in the 15-year period, 1976 through 1990, among the population of Rochester, Minn. Nine patients (eight women and one man) were identified, corresponding to an average annual age-adjusted incidence rate per 100,000 of 0.9 for the total and 1.6 for the female population. In females aged 15 to 44 years, idiopathic intracranial hypertension occurred at a rate of 3.3 per 100,000 per year; for those defined as obese (body mass index > 26), the rate rose to 7.9. Median follow-up was 2.7 years (range, 5 months to 15 years). Three of 18 eyes developed visual impairment; this was mild in all cases.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
