Stroke/TIA Diagnoses within Neuro RFV Population. The probability of a stroke/TIA diagnosis within the Neuro RFV population by year and by age group (all ages, 18–44 years old, 45–64 years old, and 65+ years old). Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals. For unadjusted analysis of all ages: OR = 0.962 (95% CI 0.951–0.973, p < 0.001), while for adjusted: OR = 0.960 (95% CI 0.948–0.971, p < 0.001). This downward trend was driven primarily by the older adult population (adjusted OR 0.952, 95% CI 0.939–0.965, p < 0.001) compared to the young (adjusted OR 0.997, 95% CI 0.954–1.042, p = 0.883)
