Incidence of stroke, transient ischaemic attack and determinants of poststroke mortality among immigrants in Denmark, 2004-2018: a population-based cohort study

Conclusions The age-standardised risk of stroke and TIA was significantly higher among the majority of immigrants than Danish-born individuals. Interventions that reduce the burden of comorbidities, improve acute stroke care and target sociodemographic factors may address the higher risk of poststroke mortality among immigrants.
