Different change patterns and sex difference for stroke and its subtypes mortality attributable to tobacco in China from 1990 to 2021.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Tobacco use is one of the major risk factors of stroke. However, the dynamic changes in stroke attributable to tobacco over the past three decades in China remain unclear, as does the potential differential effect of tobacco on different stroke subtypes.

Methods

Data was derived from the Global Burden of Disease 2021 study. Tobacco use was defined as current or past usage of any smoked tobacco product and the average daily exposure to air particulate matter from second-hand smoking. Joinpoint regression and age-period-cohort analysis were adopted to analyze the trends in stroke mortality due to tobacco.

Result

From 1990 to 2021, the age-standardized mortality rates (ASMR) for stroke attributable to tobacco exhibited a declining trend. Ischemic stroke (IS) e
