title: Epidemiology of Reiter's syndrome in Rochester, Minnesota: 1950-1980.
abstract: The incidence of Reiter's syndrome in a predominantly white, community-based population is reported. The age-adjusted annual incidence rate for males younger than age 50 was 3.5 per 100,000. No female cases were identified. Over time, a greater proportion of cases have been identified among younger males. In 63% of the patients, either a prolonged or relapsing disease course occurred.
