Pancreatic Stone Protein Testing Market Analysis

Disease Type Segment Analysis

The global pancreatic stone protein market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by disease type into sepsis, acute appendicitis, diabetes, optic atrophy, and deafness. Amongst these segments, the sepsis disease segment is expected to garner the largest revenue by the end of 2035, backed by the growing number of cases of sepsis around the globe, and increasing awareness among people about the early diagnosis of sepsis. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that every year, more than 49 million people suffer from sepsis, resulting in 11 million deaths worldwide. In recent years, the number of patients with severe sepsis has increased from 25% to 42%. Sepsis is a more common disease that causes infection and affects the immune system of the body. Moreover, sepsis is a bacterial or viral infection that causes traumatic injury. The infection triggers the immune system and initiates the release of chemicals and immune mediators into the bloodstream to fight the infection. This leads to inflammation, blood clots, and bleeding from blood vessels that cause organ damage.

Age Group Segment Analysis

The global pancreatic stone protein market is also segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by age group into infant, children, adults, and geriatric. Amongst these segments, the adults segment is expected to garner a significant share. The elderly population is suffering from acute pancreatitis compared to younger people. The high risk of malnutrition in the elderly or aging population supports immunodeficiency making them more prone to the development of organ dysfunction. The severity of the disease is also very high in older people may be owing to atypical symptoms, reduced pancreatic protein production, impairment in immunity, and bacterial translocation.  The mortality rate of patients with acute pancreatitis in people aged 60-70 years is 0.8 per year which is approximately 20 times that in people aged under 20 as per estimations in 2019 across the globe. Further, the frequent cause of biliary lithiasis, lithogenic bile, and dilation of the bile duct, are common reasons for the incidence of acute pancreatitis in aged people. Alcohol consumption, idiopathic pancreatitis caused by genetic polymorphisms, environmental chemicals, and smoking habits are other also estimated to increase the risk of acute pancreatitis in the elderly. The high incidence of pancreatitis will lead to pancreatic failure or stone formation rising the aged patient population. All these factors drive the market segment’s growth during the forecast period.
