Abstract
We use historical data about breathlessness in British coal miners and recent data about diabetes in Germany to illustrate a method for deriving the age-specific incidence from aggregated current status data, i.e. age-specific prevalence data. The method is centered on a differential equation, and special focus is put on maximum likelihood (ML) estimation of confidence intervals.
