Global, regional, and national burden of ischemic stroke attributable to active smoking, 1990-2021.
Article in Tobacco induced diseases, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionIschemic stroke is a major global health issue, with active smoking identified as a key modifiable risk factor. This study examines the burden of ischemic stroke due to active smoking from 1990 to 2021, across different sociodemographic contexts.
methodsData from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 database were used to extract information on mortality and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) attributable to active smoking-related ischemic stroke. Countries and regions were categorized by the sociodemographic index (SDI) into five levels. Statistical analyses were conducted using R Studio, including the calculation of estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) and joinpoint regression models.
resultsIn 2021, there were 342674 deaths globally due to ischemic stroke caused by active smoking, with an age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) of 4.06 and a population-attributable fraction (PAF) of 9.54%. The number of deaths increased by 35.59% from 1990 to 2021, with males aged ≥70 years experiencing the largest increase. The global age-standardized DALY rate in 2021 was 98.29, with an overall increase in DALYs by 33.55% from 1990. Regional analysis revealed significant disparities, with the middle SDI region reporting the highest number of deaths and DALYs, while the high SDI region reported the lowest. Geographically, East Asia had the highest burden in 2021. Nationally, China had the highest number of deaths and DALYs due to smoking-related ischemic stroke.
conclusionsThis study highlights the significant global burden of ischemic stroke attributable to active smoking and the critical need for targeted smoking cessation programs and stroke prevention strategies. Despite overall declines in ASMR and age-standardized DALY rates, the burden varies significantly across different regions and sociodemographic groups. Effective public health interventions, particularly in low- to middle-SDI regions, are essential to mitigate the impact of smoking-related ischemic stroke and improve global health outcomes.
