ASD is one of the most common developmental disorders worldwide. The condition affects 4% of children worldwide, making the disease exceedingly prevalent. ASD is diagnosed when individuals have difficulty communicating with others, have restricted interests, display repetitive behaviors, and struggle to function in a normal working environment. As symptoms generally manifest in the first two years of life, the condition is regarded as a ‘childhood condition' however, this report also provides insight into how ASD manifests within the adult population.

The publisher's epidemiologists used age- and sex-specific diagnosed and total prevalence rates and diagnosis rates to forecast the total and diagnosed prevalent cases in each of the 7MM using robust market-specific data. The publisher's epidemiologists applied the country-specific prevalence rates of ASD to each country's population to obtain the number of estimated diagnosed and total prevalent cases.

The following data describes epidemiology of ASD cases. In 2021, the 7MM had 4,546,591 diagnosed prevalent cases of ASD which is expected to increase to 4,553,323 cases in 2031, at an annual growth rate (AGR) of 0.01%. In the 7MM, the total prevalent cases of ASD will increase from 7,039,947 cases in 2021, to7,054,851 cases in 2031 at an AGR of 0.02%. This increase is partly attributed to the moderately rising trend in historical prevalence in the 7MM, which can be explained by increased awareness of ASD, and decreased stigma surrounding the condition. The underlying demographic change in the respective markets is also responsible for the increase in prevalence. Increased awareness, and early diagnosis of ASD would facilitate improved access to management strategies and improve the daily lives of people living with ASD.

Scope

  • The Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Epidemiology Report provides an overview of the risk factors and global trends of ASD in the seven major markets (7MM: US, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK, and Japan).
  • This report also includes a 10-year epidemiological forecast for diagnosed and total prevalent cases of ASD segmented by all ages and both sexes. Additionally, diagnosis rates of ASD are included and are segmented into three age groups (children, adolescents, adults).
  • The ASD Epidemiology Report is written and developed by Masters- and PhD-level epidemiologists.
  • The Epidemiology Report is in-depth, high quality, transparent and market-driven, providing expert analysis of disease trends in the 7MM.

Reasons to Buy

The Autism Spectrum Disorder Epidemiology series will allow you to:

  • Develop business strategies by understanding the trends shaping and driving the global ASD market.
  • Quantify patient populations in the global ASD market to improve product design, pricing, and launch plans.
  • Organize sales and marketing efforts by identifying the demographic with high ASD prevalence that presents the best opportunities ASD therapeutics in each of the markets covered.
