Stroke continues to represent a major public health challenge worldwide.
Among all non-communicable diseases (NCDs), it remains the second leading cause of death and the third leading cause of death and disability combined, as measured by disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs).
WSO Global Fact Sheet 2025 offers the most current and authoritative data on the global impact of the disease.
Developed in collaboration with experts from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) research group and reviewed by the WSO Executive Committee, this comprehensive report serves as a critical resource for policymakers, healthcare professionals, researchers, and advocacy groups.
The updated figures and trends presented in the 2025 Fact Sheet are intended to inform strategic communication, guide resource allocation, and support global efforts aimed at prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation.
