Description

ZhenKun Xiao, LiangJie Deng, YongHong Duan, Bing Wang, and AiHua Liu published a 2026 study pairing global burden estimates with individual cohort data on stroke tied to blood sugar and cholesterol dysfunction. Global Burden of Disease figures traced Chinese stroke deaths and disability from high fasting glucose and high LDL cholesterol between 1990 and 2023. A Chinese aging cohort served for discovery, with a United States cohort validating biomarker findings.

Age-standardized death and disability rates fell over the period, yet absolute numbers stayed large in 2023 in the reported estimates. A biomarker called eGDR, reflecting estimated glucose disposal, consistently tied to lower stroke risk and topped the predictor rankings in machine learning analyses. Adding it to standard risk models was tested for discrimination and clinical benefit.
