Stroke outcomes are influenced by factors such as education, lifestyle, and access to care, which determine the extent of functional recovery. Disparities in stroke rehabilitation research have traditionally included age, race/ethnicity, and sex, but other areas make up a gap in the literature. This article conducted a literature review of original research articles published between 2008 and 2022. The article also expands on research that highlights stroke disparities in risk factors, rehabilitative stroke care, language barriers, outcomes for stroke survivors, and interventions focused on rehabilitative stroke disparities.

Sociodemographic index-age differences in the global prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, 1990-2019: a population-based study.
Arch Public Health
January 2025
Department of Nephrology, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, Hefei, China.
Background: This study aims to assess the global burden and trends in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) prevalence, stratified by sociodemographic index (SDI) categories and age groups, across 204 countries and territories.
Methods: Utilizing data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019, this study analyzed trends in the age-standardized prevalence rate of overall and type-specific CVDs, including rheumatic heart disease, ischemic heart disease, stroke, hypertensive heart disease, non-rheumatic valvular heart disease, cardiomyopathy and myocarditis, atrial fibrillation and flutter, peripheral artery disease, endocarditis, and other cardiovascular and circulatory diseases. Age-standardized prevalence rates were stratified by SDI categories (low, low-middle, middle, high-middle, and high) and age groups (0-14, 15-49, 50-69, and ≥ 70 years).
Sex and gender in perioperative cardiovascular research: protocol for a scoping review.
Syst Rev
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, ON, Canada.
Background: The inadequate inclusion of sex and gender in medical research has resulted in biased clinical guidance and disparities in knowledge and patient outcomes. Despite efforts by regulatory and funding agencies, opportunities to generate sex-specific knowledge are frequently overlooked. While certain disciplines in cardiovascular medicine have made notable progress, these advances have yet to permeate the literature on perioperative cardiovascular complications in non-cardiac surgery.

Methods: An observational study of adults with stroke/TIA admitted to hospitals in the Australian Stroke Clinical Registry (Queensland, Victoria; 2012-2016; n=45 hospitals), with linked administrative data.
Sepsis-Associated Cardiomyopathy: Long-Term Prognosis, Management, and Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy.
Curr Cardiol Rep
January 2025
Director, Cardiac Intensive Care Emory Heart & Vascular Center, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, GA, USA.
Purpose Of Review: To explore the definitions of sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy and how that impacts interpretation of the available data and considerations of long-term prognosis and management.
Recent Findings: The field of sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy has been hampered by lack of consensus about its proper definition, with a great deal of heterogeneity in clinical trial data in both individual studies and meta-analyses and consequent disparity of estimates of incidence, prognosis, and clinical significance. New diagnostic techniques, while potentially shedding light on pathophysiology, have only exacerbated these challenges.
The potential impact of optimal blood pressure treatment intensity to reduce disparities in dementia between Black and White individuals.
J Alzheimers Dis
January 2025
Department of Neurology, The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, Columbus, OH, USA.
Background: Black adults have higher dementia risk than White adults. Whether tighter population-level blood pressure (BP) control reduces this disparity is unknown.
Objective: Estimate the impact of optimal BP treatment intensity on racial disparities in dementia.
