Overview

There is a dearth of data regarding the incidence and prevalence of adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD). In the Japanese and the European populations, the reported prevalence rates range from 10 to 340 cases per 100,000 individuals. The disease occurs worldwide and usually affects young adults (age 16-35 years). Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) affects females more than males. Aging adults affected by adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) have a higher rate of development of complications related to AOSD and a higher mortality rate compared to younger individuals.

Epidemiology and Demographics

Incidence and prevalence

  • There is a dearth of data regarding the incidence and prevalence of adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD).
  • In the Japanese and the European populations, the reported prevalence rates range from 10 to 340 cases per 100,000 individuals.[1]
  • The disease occurs worldwide and usually affects young adults (age 16-35 years).
  • In France, the annual incidence of AOSD was estimated to be 0.16 per 100,000 individuals.[2]
  • In Japan, the annual incidence of AOSD was estimated to be 0.22 per 100,000 individuals.[3]
  • In Norway, the annual incidence of AOSD was estimated to be 0.4 per 100,000 individuals.[4]

Age

  • Aging adults affected by adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) have a higher rate of development of complications related to AOSD and a higher mortality rate compared to younger individuals.[5]

Gender

  • Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) affects females more than males.[6][7]

Race

  • Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) affects Caucasians more than other races.[8]
