Global Inequalities in the Burden of Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury from 1990 to 2021: Findings from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021
The absolute counts of incidence, prevalence, and burden of TSCI substantially increased from 1990 to 2021, despite the decrease in corresponding ASRs. TSCI happened in the most active periods of individuals globally, which were shifting toward older age-groups over time. TSCI had larger effects on the elderly and males than younger populations and females.
