The most prevalent skin conditions (age\u2010adjusted per 100,000) were other skin and subcutaneous diseases (6788.41), fungal skin diseases (3311.44), acne vulgaris (3102.51), atopic dermatitis (1374.93), viral skin diseases (1257.88), scabies (1009.72), contact dermatitis (998.89), pruritus (980.93), urticaria (936.13), and cutaneous leishmaniasis (642.73). Qatar experienced the largest DALYs increase in skin disease (0.12%; 95% CI: 0.07%\u20130.18%). Notable geographic variations included increased DALYs for acne vulgaris, psoriasis, and viral skin diseases across all countries; a rise in cutaneous leishmaniasis in Afghanistan, Syria, and Morocco; and a decline in measles, varicella\u2010herpes zoster, and leprosy (except in Iran).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Skin diseases impose a significant and evolving burden in NAME, with notable temporal and geographic variations.
