Different studies give different estimates of the incidence of angina.

 

Using data from the Scottish Continuous Morbidity Study we estimate that there are about 52,000 new cases per year of angina in all men living in the UK and about 43,000 in women giving a total of about 96,000.

 

The incidence of angina is higher in men than women and increases with age.
