Objectives: This study examined the spatial patterns of systemic sclerosis mortality in Spain from 2003 to 2022, identifying provincial-level clusters and sex-specific differences to explore potential underlying factors.
Methods: Mortality and population data (2003-2022) were sourced from the National Institute of Statistics. Age-standardized mortality rates were calculated, and spatial patterns were analyzed using standardized mortality ratios and smoothed relative risks via the Besag, York, and Mollié model, with statistical inference performed using the Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation (INLA) technique.
Article Synopsis
- This study examined psoriasis prevalence in Spain from 2018 to 2022, finding a significant increase in cases, particularly among older age groups.
- The estimated prevalence reached 1.9% in 2022, with a total rise of 43.3%, indicating stronger increases in both men and women, with men showing slightly higher rates.
- Results suggest factors like better awareness and diagnostics may contribute to this trend, highlighting the need for more research to understand the causes and inform public health strategies.
