Three major cycles (40-50 years) can be distinguished in the long term with regard to incidence. In 1986, the rise in incidence was noted after 30 years since the previous one and it was less intensive. In the first cycle, rates increased gradually over almost 10 years beginning from 1891. In subsequent years, the incidence remained high (220-280 per 100,000), decreasing markedly to 50-60 per 100,000 population only by 1917-1918. The second cycle, from 1918 to 1942, was characterized by increasing rates (up to 462 per 100,000 population). In the third cycle (1946 - 1981), incidence rate reached a peak by 1955 (531.8 per 100,000 population), and started to gradually decrease afterwards.
