Burden of psoriasis in young adults worldwide from the global burden of disease study 2019.

ABSTRACT:

Background

To determine the global burden of psoriasis in young adults, i.e., those aged 15-49, from 1990 to 2019 and predict trends in this burden for 2020 to 2030.

Methods

Age-standardized disease burden indicators and their estimated annual percentage changes were assessed and used to compare the estimated burden between regions. In addition, generalized additive models were used to predict the burden in this population from 2020 to 2030.

Results

From 1990 to 2019, the overall burden of psoriasis in young adults worldwide trended downward, as the age-standardized incidence rate and the age-standardized disability-adjusted life year rate decreased. From 1990 to 2019, there were gender differences in the burden of psoriasis between regions with different Socio-demogr
