在1981年9月1日至1982年8月31日期间，芬兰库奥皮奥省四个城市的46，979名居民中所有疑似或确诊的肺炎患者均由其主治医生报告给肺炎登记处。此外，两名研究病理学家报告了尸检时发现的所有肺炎病例，并检查了两个永久登记册，以回顾性识别患者。97%的患者获得了胸部X线片。最后的诊断是基于放射学或尸检标准。共有546例患者（323例男性和223例女性）患有社区获得性肺炎;其中37%的患者年龄小于15岁，31%的患者年龄≥ 60岁。19%的患者患有慢性疾病，42%的患者入院治疗。病死率为4%。社区获得性肺炎的总发病率为每年每1 000名居民11.6例（男性13.9例，女性9.4例）。按年龄分列的每年每千名居民发病率如下：5岁以下36.0; 5-14岁16.2; 15-59岁6.0; 60-74岁15.4; 75岁以上34.2。
Between September 1, 1981, and August 31, 1982, all patients with suspected or confirmed pneumonia among the 46,979 inhabitants of four municipalities in the province of Kuopio, Finland, were reported to a pneumonia register by their attending physicians. In addition, two study pathologists reported all cases of pneumonia found at autopsy, and two permanent registers were checked for retrospective identification of patients. Chest radiographs were obtained from 97% of all patients. The final diagnosis was based on radiologic or autopsy criteria. A total 546 patients (323 males and 223 females) had community-acquired pneumonia; of these, 37% were less than 15 years of age, and 31% were 60 years of age or older. Nineteen percent of the patients had defined chronic conditions, and 42% were admitted to hospital. The case fatality rate was 4%. The overall incidence of community-acquired pneumonia per 1,000 inhabitants per year was 11.6 (13.9 in males, 9.4 in females). The age-specific incidence per 1,000 inhabitants per year was as follows: age < 5 years, 36.0; age 5-14 years, 16.2; age 15-59 years, 6.0; age 60-74 years, 15.4; and age > or = 75 years, 34.2.
