Projections of the incidence and prevalence of disease are important for public health planning. This paper describes methods for projecting the incidence and prevalence of a chronic disease in ageing populations. The approach uses age-speciΓΏc disease incidence rates together with assumptions about

## Abstract In this study of a cohort of 33 young and middle‐age adults (19–59 years) we report simultaneous measurements of normal age‐related changes in the caudate nuclei volume, diffusion tensor metrics, and __T__~2~ relaxation time. Both the absolute caudate volume and its ratio relative to th

A model of the course of a chronic disease was formulated. The model implies that among patients suffering from a chronic disease a symptom or sign relevant to the prognosis will be present more frequently the earlier it occurs in the natural course of the disease. Utilizing this principle a method
