NEW YORK, Jan. 14, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- About Ankylosing Spondylitis
Ankylosing spondylitis is a subtype of spondylarthropathy. The primary symptoms of the disease are inflammatory spinal pain with subsequent limitation of spine mobility and chest expansion. Ankylosing spondylitis can be diagnosed using clinical signs, radiological signs (sacroiliitis) and the presence of HLA-B27 antigen. According to the NIH and NIAMS, ankylosing spondylitis is a type of arthritis, which affects the joints in the vertebral column severely. It is a progressive inflammatory disease that typically becomes evident during early to mid-adulthood, as per NORD. It can also lead to the loss of spinal mobility for the affected individuals. The cause of the disease is not known, however, the HLA-B27 gene plays a major role. Ankylosing spondylitis is hereditary in nature.
TechNavio's analysts forecast the Global Ankylosing Spondylitis market to grow at a CAGR of 5.05 percent over the period 2014-2019.
