Subtype and gender-differentiated burden of stroke in China (1990–2021): attributable risk factors and future projections based on the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021
The stroke burden in China shows a downward trend, with a subtype-specific feature of increasing IS and decreasing ICH/SAH. High systolic blood pressure is the potential risk factor for stroke, with variations across subtypes and genders. Targeted interventions such as smoking control for males, sodium intake reduction for females, and LDL cholesterol management for IS, are urgently needed to mitigate the future IS burden.
