Figure 5 Period-specific rate ratios (RRs) for high systolic blood pressure-attributable stroke mortality. Period RRs relative to the reference period (2005–2009), adjusted for age and nonlinear cohort effects, for both sexes (A), women (B), and men (C). Error bars depict 95% confidence intervals. ICH – intracerebral hemorrhage; IS – ischemic stroke; SAH – subarachnoid hemorrhage.
