Incidence and prevalence of intracranial vascular malformations in Olmsted County, Minnesota, 1965 to 1992
Abstract
We used the Mayo Clinic medical records linkage system to detect all cases of intracranial vascular malformation (IVM) among residents of Olmsted County, Minnesota from 1965 to 1992 and found 48 IVMs over the 27-year period, including four patients with IVM detected at autopsy, without prior symptoms. Twenty-nine of 48 patients were symptomatic at presentation. From 1985 to 1992, the age- and sex-adjusted detection rate for IVMs excluding asymptomatic autopsy cases was 2.75 in 100,000 person-years (P-Y) (95% CI, 1.6 to 3.9). From 1965 to 1992, the detection rate was 1.84 in 100,000 P-Y (95% CI, 1.3 to 2.4). On January 1, 1990, the age- and sex-adjusted prevalence rate of identified IVMs was 19.0 in 100,000 P-Y (95% CI, 10.5 to 27.5). Detection rates increased from 1965 to 1992, probably due to increased identification of cases because of advances in imaging technology. This study provides unique data on incidence rates of detection and prevalence of IVMs on a population basis.

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.
