Changes in the global burden of polycystic ovary syndrome from 1990 to 2021.
Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a chronic, multifaceted condition influenced by epigenetic and environmental factors that is responsible for a significant proportion of anovulatory infertility cases. Here, we analyzed the global, regional, and national burdens of PCOS from 1990 to 2021 using data from the Global Burden of Disease 2021 (GBD 2021).
Methods: Incidence, prevalence, and Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) data relevant to PCOS from 204 countries and 21 territories from 1990 to 2021 were obtained from the GBD 2021 study. Here, we considered age-standardized rates (per 100,000 individuals) with 95% uncertainty intervals (95% UIs) obtained from the aforementioned research and presented trends based on age and Socio-demographic Index (SDI) parameters.
Results: In 2021, the global age-standardized incidence and prevalence rates of PCOS were 30.7 per 100,000 and 867.7 per 100,000, respectively, representing an increase of 26.77% and 28.21% since 1990. Additionally, age-standardized disability-adjusted life years stood at 7.6 per 100,000 globally in 2021, marking a 27.58% increase from 1990. Age-standardized prevalence of PCOS varied across countries, ranging from 93.1 to 3978.9 cases per 100,000 women, with Italy (3978.9), Japan (3104.7), and New Zealand (2789.7) having the highest rates. Notably, PCOS prevalence was noted to peak globally among females 15-19 years of age. Regions with a high SDI exhibited the highest age-standardized incidence (70.2), prevalence (1720.7), and DALY (15.2) rates of PCOS. Furthermore, a nonlinear correlation between PCOS burden and SDI was noted, with prevalence rates peaking around an SDI of approximately 0.9.
Conclusion: Our findings highlight the growing global impact of PCOS and underscore the need for concerted efforts to attenuate the increasing global prevalence of this condition. Significantly divergent PCOS disease burdens were observed across different age groups and SDI regions, with high SDI regions bearing heavier burdens. The increased disease burden among younger age groups and regional disparities underscore urgency for targeted intervention and formulation of policies to effectively address this public health issue.
期刊介绍:
Reproductive Health focuses on all aspects of human reproduction. The journal includes sections dedicated to adolescent health, female fertility and midwifery and all content is open access.
Reproductive health is defined as a state of physical, mental, and social well-being in all matters relating to the reproductive system, at all stages of life. Good reproductive health implies that people are able to have a satisfying and safe sex life, the capability to reproduce and the freedom to decide if, when, and how often to do so. Men and women should be informed about and have access to safe, effective, affordable, and acceptable methods of family planning of their choice, and the right to appropriate health-care services that enable women to safely go through pregnancy and childbirth.
