Trajectories and influencing factors of social alienation in first-onset stroke patients: a prospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Stroke patients frequently experience social alienation due to factors such as impaired self-care, depression, fatigue, and stigma. This condition exacerbates the perceived burden of disease and hinders social integration within families and society. Multiple studies have demonstrated that the level of social alienation is influenced by physical, psychological, biological, and socioeconomic factors.
