Incidence
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-005755
The rate at which new cases of a disease or health condition occur in a defined population over a specified period. It quantifies the probability of individuals developing a particular condition during that time frame. Incidence is typically expressed as a proportion or a rate, such as cases per 1,000 people per year.
