In 2023, Japan's Parkinson's disease mortality was at a significant benchmark from which future projections are made. From 2024 to 2028, the mortality rate shows a consistent upward trend, starting from 10.8 deaths per hundred thousand in 2024 and reaching 12.5 by 2028. The year-on-year growth rates are 4.63% from 2024 to 2025, 3.54% from 2025 to 2026, 3.42% from 2026 to 2027, and 3.31% from 2027 to 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years is approximately 3.72%.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Advancements in medical treatment and technology, which could reduce mortality.
- Demographic shifts, particularly the aging population, which may increase rates.
- Policy interventions and health care improvements that aim to better manage the disease.
