Analysis of the Incidence and Influencing Factors of Depression in the Acute Stage of Ischemic Stroke: A Retrospective Clinical Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Poststroke depression (PSD) is a common complication following a stroke, but the risk factors for its onset remain controversial. The purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence of PSD and its relationship with stroke sites to provide more evidence for the early identification of high-risk patients with PSD.

Methods

This retrospective clinical study recruited acute ischemic stroke patients and assessed them for 2 weeks after the onset. Blood samples were collected from the patients upon admission for routine blood tests and blood biochemical analysis.
