Limitaciones identificadas
Explicación de la calificación
This is a comprehensive and valuable study that provides updated estimates of the global stroke burden and its associated risk factors. The methodology is rigorous and the findings are important for guiding public health interventions. However, the limitations related to observational data, age-standardization, and omission of some risk factors prevent a perfect score.
