Overview

There is a dearth of data regarding the incidence and prevalence of adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD).
In France, the annual incidence of ASD was estimated to be 0.16 per 100,000 individuals.^[1]

Aging adults affected by adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) have a higher rate of development of complications related to AOSD and a higher mortality rate compared to younger individuals.^[2]

Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) affects Caucasians more than other races.^[4]
