DUBLIN, April 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Myasthenia Gravis Forecast in 26 Major Markets 2017-2027" report to their offering.
Myasthenia Gravis (MG), also known as autoimmune myasthenia, is one of the most significant diseases affecting the neuromuscular junction. The disorder is caused by auto-antibodies that target components of the post-synaptic muscle endplate. This includes antibodies that target acetylcholine receptors (AChR), muscle-specific kinase (MUSK) and lipoprotein release protein 4 (LRP4). Please note that this module does not cover congenital MG forms.
This report provides the current prevalent population for Myasthenia Gravis across 26 Major Markets (USA, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK, Ireland, Denmark, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Estonia, Croatia, Poland, Russia, Greece, Turkey, Japan, China, South Korea, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, India and Australia) split by gender and 5-year age cohort. Along with the current prevalence, the report also contains a disease overview of the risk factors, disease diagnosis and prognosis along with specific variations by geography and ethnicity.
Providing a value-added level of insight from the analysis team, several of the main symptoms and co-morbidities of Myasthenia Gravis have been quantified and presented alongside the overall prevalence figures. These sub-populations within the main disease are also included at a country level across the 10-year forecast snapshot.
