Global burden of ischemic stroke in adults aged 60 years and older from 1990 to 2021: Population-based study
Population aging is the primary driver of the growing burden of ischemic stroke. Our findings indicate that prevention and control of this disease remain critical public health challenges. Targeted interventions addressing modifiable risk factors could significantly reduce the global burden of ischemic stroke.
