Figure 8 Age-specific trends and predictions of mortality rates attributable to high systolic blood pressure for stroke and its subtypes across 8 age groups in China, 1990 to 2030. (A) Overall stroke, (B) subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), (C) ischemic stroke (IS), (D) intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Each small panel represents a specific 5-year age group from 45–49 years to 80–84 years. Black dots with a solid line represent historical observed values (1990–2021); the solid line after the vertical dashed line shows predicted values (2022–2030). Blue shaded areas indicate 95% credible intervals (CIs) of the predicted values.
