Incidence and Temporal Trends of Primary Immunodeficiency: A Population-Based Cohort Study

This is one of the first population-based studies to examine the temporal trends of PIDs. The incidence of PIDs increased markedly between 1976 and 2006. In this cohort, a delay in diagnosis was common and was associated with increased morbidity. Despite substantial morbidity, most patients with PIDs can expect a normal life span.
