Epidemiological trends and age-period-cohort effects on subarachnoid hemorrhage burden across the BRICS-plus from 1992 to 2021 by Liang Guo, Liang Guo, Liang Guo, Liang Guo, Liang Guo, Dan Song, Dan Song, Dan Song, Dan Song, Dan Song, Li Chen, Li Chen, Li Chen, Li Chen, Li Chen, Ying Huang, Ying Huang, Ying Huang, Ying Huang, Ying Huang

“…A significant negative correlation was observed between the incidence rate of SAH and SDI values. Nations displayed similar age-effect patterns characterized by initial declines followed by subsequent increases with advancing age, along with distinct period and cohort effects that may reflect variations in control measures and temporal burden patterns.ConclusionOur study demonstrates the overall decline in age standardized incidence rate of SAH, while highlighting the persistent health inequalities among eleven countries potentially attributable to socioeconomic disparities. …”
