Pre-stroke sleep duration and post-stroke depression.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Sleep disturbance and depression are common in stroke patients, however, little is known about the role of sleep in post-stroke depression. This study examined the association between pre-stroke sleep duration and depression at 90 days post-stroke in a population-based bi-ethnic sample.
