Global Temporal Trends and Projections of Stroke Among Women of Childbearing Age: An Age-Period-Cohort Analysis Based on the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021.
Article in European journal of neurology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundStroke is a major global health concern, particularly for women of childbearing age (WCBA), who face unique biological and sociodemographic risks. This study analyzes temporal trends in stroke incidence, prevalence, disability-adjusted life-year (DALY), and deaths among WCBA at global, regional, and national levels over the past three decades, using age-period-cohort (APC) modeling.
methodsStroke burden data for WCBA from 1992 to 2021 across 204 countries were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 study. An APC model assessed annual percentage changes in stroke burden (net drift), age group-specific trends (local drift), and relative risks associated with age, period, and cohort factors. Future stroke burden was projected using Bayesian APC models through 2030.
resultsFrom 1992 to 2021, global stroke incidence cases among WCBA increased from 638,478 to 779,371, but ASIR and AS-DALYs declined. High-SDI regions consistently had the lowest stroke rates, while middle- and low-SDI regions, particularly China and India, accounted for a significant portion of global cases. Despite declines in some regions, countries like the Philippines and Pakistan exhibited rising trends. Projections to 2030 indicate a continued increase in stroke incidence cases, with higher rates expected in middle-income countries due to emerging risk factors like obesity and gestational diabetes.
conclusionsWhile ASIR and AS-DALYs declined globally, rising incidence case numbers and persistent disparities highlight the need for targeted prevention and policy strategies, particularly in low- and middle-income regions, to reduce the stroke burden among WCBA.
