2005年,中风造成约570万人死亡,其中87%发生在低收入和中等收入国家。如果不采取干预措施,全球死亡人数预计将在2015年增至650万人,在2030年增至780万人。中风的负担不断增加,特别是在低收入和中等收入国家,这促使我们提出一个全球中风目标:每年减少2%,超过更好的病例管理和治疗可能带来的结果。高收入国家的经验表明,持续的干预措施可以使60-69岁人群的卒中死亡率至少实现所需的年均下降4%。实现这一中风目标将使2005年至2015年中风死亡人数减少640万。低收入和中等收入国家避免的死亡人数将多于高收入国家。
Stroke caused an estimated 5.7 million deaths in 2005, and 87% of these deaths were in low-income and middle-income countries. Without intervention, the number of global deaths is projected to rise to 6.5 million in 2015 and to 7.8 million in 2030. The rising burden of stroke, especially in low-income and middle-income countries, leads us to propose a worldwide goal for stroke: a 2% reduction each year over and above that which may happen as a result of better case management and treatment. The experience of high-income countries indicates that sustained interventions can achieve at least the required 4% annual average decline in stroke mortality for people age 60-69 years. Achieving this goal for stroke would result in 6.4 million fewer deaths from stroke from 2005 to 2015. More of these deaths will be averted in low-income and middle-income countries than in high-income countries.
