Healthcare Disparities in Alopecia Areata: UK Population-based Cohort Study
In Brief
An observational study evaluating No intervention for Alopecia Areata. Completed, enrolled 4,052,231 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Alopecia areata (AA) is a common immune-mediated non-scarring alopecia often associated with substantial morbidity. There are however, limited population-based data on potential disparities in the burden of AA, including across people of different ethnicities and deprivation. We aimed to provide the first large-scale, population-based estimate of lifetime risk of AA overall and by important sociodemographic subgroups. As AA is associated with an increased burden of mental health conditions and work-related outcomes (unemployment, time off work), a detailed understanding of the burden of disease in different sociodemographic groups is vital to plan resource provision.
