Understanding stroke mortality trends in Spain: A comprehensive age-period-cohort and joinpoint analysis
Both period and cohort effects are present in the decline in Spanish stroke mortality between 1982 and 2021. It is unlikely that the decrease in mortality has offset the possible increase in incidence in younger cohorts. This has led to a slowing (in men) or stagnation (in women) of the current decline in stroke mortality. Therefore, we must continue to focus on prevention.
