Incidence, prevalence, and co-occurrence of autoimmune disorders over time and by age, sex, and socioeconomic status: a population-based cohort study of 22 million individuals in the UK

Brief summary: Over the last decades changing incidences for autoimmune diseases have been observed. However, no data are available so far on long-term trends, incidence over the whole age spectrum (child, adults, geriatric patients), and incidence of co-occurrence of the different autoimmune diseases. The presented study provides an extensive population-based cohort study performed in the UK.
