BACKGROUND: Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) are all immune-mediated chronic inflammatory liver diseases. Autoimmune liver diseases are rare, making identification and treatment difficult. To improve clinical outcomes and enhance patient quality of life, we performed an epidemiological study of autoimmune liver diseases based on real-world comprehensive data.
RESULTS: We used National Health Insurance Service claims data in Korea from 2005 to 2019. Patients were identified using the International Classification of Disease 10th Revision code, and rare intractable disease codes assigned according to the strict diagnostic criteria. In the AIH cohort, 8,572 (83.9%) were females and the mean age at diagnosis was 56.3 ± 14.3 years. PBC also showed female dominance (83.3%) and the mean age was 57.8 ± 12.6 years. Patients with PSC showed no sex predominance and had a mean age of 57.8 ± 21.5 years. During the study period, there were 10,212, 6,784, and 888 AIH, PBC, and PSC patients, respectively. The prevalence of AIH, PBC, and PSC in 2019 were 18.4, 11.8, and 1.5 per 100,000 population, while the corresponding incidences were 2.3, 1.4, and 0.3 per 100,000 population, respectively. Analysis of sex-age-standardized data showed that the annual prevalence of these diseases is increasing. The 10-year survival rates were 89.8%, 74.9%, and 73.4% for AIH, PBC, and PSC, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: The number of patients with autoimmune liver disease in South Korea is increasing over time. Further research on autoimmune liver disease is needed to fulfill unmet clinical needs.
