This is one of the first population studies on the prevalence and healthcare utilization patterns of RNDs, with comprehensive reviews of RND-related pharmacological research. It shows high healthcare utilization rates among patients with RNDs, as well as a wide research gap in many RNDs. We call for better attention and tailored healthcare for these patients.
