Acne Vulgaris Disease Understanding
Acne Vulgaris Overview
Acne vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory dermatological condition characterized by pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads on the skin, primarily affecting pilosebaceous units across various age groups, with adolescents being the most commonly affected demographic. The severity of acne can be classified into mild, moderate, and severe based on the presence of non-inflammatory and inflammatory lesions, erythema, and scarring. The pathogenesis involves a multifactorial interplay of hormonal influences, sebum production, follicular hyperkeratinization, bacterial proliferation, and inflammation, exacerbated by genetic predisposition, medications, and environmental factors. Key symptoms include comedones, inflammatory lesions, and scarring. The management of acne is challenging due to various risk factors, emphasizing the need for comprehensive understanding and targeted interventions.Acne Vulgaris Diagnosis
Diagnosis of acne vulgaris typically involves a thorough clinical examination of the skin to assess the type, severity, and distribution of lesions. In some instances, additional diagnostic procedures are employed to rule out other skin conditions or determine bacterial involvement. These procedures include skin biopsies and microbial cultures. Furthermore, additional tests such as microbial testing, hormonal evaluations, and liver function tests may be conducted in specific cases to provide a comprehensive understanding of the condition.Acne Vulgaris Epidemiology
For the purpose of designing the patient-based model for the Acne Vulgaris epidemiology chapter in the report provides historical as well as forecasted epidemiology segmented by, Prevalent Cases of Acne Vulgaris, Diagnosed Prevalent Cases of Acne Vulgaris, Severity-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Cases of Acne Vulgaris, Gender-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Cases of Acne Vulgaris, and Age-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Cases of Acne Vulgaris in the 7MM covering, the United States, EU4 countries (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain), United Kingdom, and Japan from 2020 to 2034.- In 2023, an estimated ~140,217 thousand prevalent cases of Acne Vulgaris occurred across the 7MM, with approximately 69.50 million cases attributed to the US alone. These numbers are expected to increase steadily throughout the forecast period.
- The categorization based on gender, showed that diagnosed prevalent cases in females were higher than in males in the 7MM. The female-diagnosed prevalent cases accounted for 63% of the total cases in the 7MM.
- The prevalent cases of acne vulgaris were sub-segmented further based on the severity of the acne as mild, moderate, and severe. In 2023, the highest diagnosed prevalent cases of acne vulgaris were reported as moderate (45%), whereas there were least cases in the severe (10%) segment in the 7MM.
KOL Views
To gaze into the epidemiology insights of the real world, we take KOLs and SMEs’ opinions working in the domain through primary research to fill the data gaps and validate our secondary research on disease prevalence.The analysts connected with 20+ KOLs to gather insights; however, interviews were conducted with 10+ KOLs in the 7MM. Centers such as the Department of Dermatology, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, Georgia; Wake Forest University School of Medicine, North Carolina; Department of Dermatology and Venereology, University Clinic Hamburg-Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany; La Roche-Posay Pharmaceutical Laboratory, France; and others were contacted. Their opinion helps understand and validate current disease prevalence, gender involved with the disease, diagnosis rate, and diagnostic criteria.
