Stroke is the third leading cause of death. Stroke occurs when an insufficient amount of blood is supplied to the brain due to a thrombus or an emboli leading to permanent tissue damage. Lesions in the brain can lead to psychiatric complications. The prevalence of psychiatric complications after stroke is very common. Psychiatric complications such as depression, anxiety, apathy, pseudobulbar effects (laughing and crying), mania, psychosis, and bipolar disorders are seen after stroke. In this review, various psychiatric disorders are reported among post-stroke survivors in which depression and anxiety are common. Consequently, apathy, pseudobulbar effects, catastrophic reactions, psychosis, bipolar disorder, and mania are also observed after stroke. Therefore, early detection and management of psychiatric disorders prevent further complications and improve the quality of life in post-stroke patients.

Objectives: The objective of the study is to evaluate the prevalence of depression and anxiety in post-stroke patients and identify its predictors. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted for a period of 6 months among 81 patients admitted with stroke in SSIMS and RC, Davangere. The information compiled from patient data collection form was assessed for comorbid conditions and type of stroke. Assessment for depression and anxiety was conducted using Hamilton D (HAM-D) and HAM-A scale and information of location of lesion was obtained from patient’s neuroimaging results. Quality of life (QOL) of post-stroke was assessed using stroke and aphasia QOL (SAQOL) questionnaire. Follow-up was conducted for patients who were diagnosed with depression and anxiety within 1 to 3 months. Results: Depression was more prevalent as compared to anxiety in post-stroke patients and was predominant in males and between the ages 61 and 70 years. Hypertension and diabetes were found to be a major comorbid conditions in such patients. Factors contributing to increased risk of depression and anxiety after stroke include age, sex, comorbidities, lesion location, and type of stroke. Post-stroke depression (PSD) and anxiety showed statistically significant association with left-sided lesion. Conclusion: PSD and anxiety are a relatively common complications and can result in poor QOL in stroke patients. Early detection of depression and anxiety symptoms may assist functional recovery and improve QOL in stroke patients. Careful evaluation of PSD and post-stroke anxiety should be integrated into clinical care of stroke patients.

Introduction Detailed data on the long-term consequences and treatment of stroke are scarce. We aimed to assess the needs and disease burden of community-dwelling stroke patients and their carers and to compare their treatment to evidence-based guidelines by a stroke neurologist. Methods We invited long-term stroke patients from two previous acute clinical studies ( n = 516) in Berlin, Germany to participate in an observational, cross-sectional study. Participants underwent a comprehensive interview and examination using the Post-Stroke Checklist and validated standard measures of: self-reported needs, quality of life, overall outcome, spasticity, pain, aphasia, cognition, depression, secondary prevention, social needs and caregiver burden. Results Fifty-seven participants (median initial National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score 10 interquartile range 4–12.75) consented to assessment (median 41 months (interquartile range 36–50) after stroke. Modified Rankin Scale was 2 (median; interquartile range 1–3), EuroQoL index value was 0.81 (median; interquartile range 0.70–1.00). The frequencies for disabilities in the major domains were: spasticity 35%; cognition 61%; depression 20%; medication non-compliance 14%. Spasticity ( p = 0.008) and social needs ( p < 0.001) had the strongest impact on quality of life. The corresponding items in the Post-Stroke Checklist were predictive for low mood ( p < 0.001), impaired cognition ( p = 0.015), social needs ( p = 0.005) and caregiver burden ( p = 0.031). In the comprehensive interview, we identified the following needs: medical review (30%), optimization of pharmacotherapy (18%), outpatient therapy (47%) and social work input (33%). Conclusion These results suggest significant unmet needs and gaps in health and social care in long-term stroke patients. Further research to develop a comprehensive model for managing stroke aftercare is warranted. Clinical Trial Registration: clinicaltrials.gov NCT02320994.

Background and Purpose: Orosomucoid-1 (ORM-1) is an abundant protein with important roles in inflammation and immunosuppression. We utilized RNA sequencing to measure mRNA levels in human ischemic stroke patients, with confirmation by serum ORM-1 protein measurements. A mouse model of ischemic stroke was then used to examine post-stroke changes in ORM-1 within the brain itself. Hypothesis: We tested the hypothesis that ORM-1 levels increase following ischemic stroke, with sex differences in protein dynamics over time. Methods: RNA sequencing was performed on whole blood from ischemic stroke patients (n=23) and controls (n=12), with Benjamini-Hochberg correction for multiple testing. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed on serum from ischemic stroke patients (n=28) and controls (n=8), with analysis by T-test. For brain analysis, mice (n=14) were subjected to a 90-minute middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) surgery and sacrificed 6 or 24 hours after stroke. Control mice underwent parallel “sham” surgery without occlusion. Western blotting was used to detect ORM-1 protein levels in whole brain, with analysis by two-way ANOVA. Results: RNA sequencing showed a 2.8-fold increase in human ORM-1 at 24 hours post-stroke (q=.0029), an increase also seen in serum ORM-1 protein levels (p=.011). Western blot analysis of mouse brain revealed that glycosylated (p=0.0003) and naive (p=0.0333) forms of ORM-1 were higher in female mice compared to males 6 hours post-stroke. Interestingly, ORM-1 levels were higher in the brains of stroke mice at 6 hours (p=.0483), while at 24 hours ORM-1 levels in stroke mice were lower than their sham counterparts (p=.0212). In both human and mouse data, no sex differences were seen in ORM-1 levels in the brain or periphery at 24 hours post-stroke. Conclusion: In conclusion, ORM-1 is a sexually dimorphic protein involved in the early (<24 hour) response to ischemic stroke. This research serves as an initial step in determining the mechanism of ORM-1 in the ischemic stroke response and its potential as a future therapeutic target for both sexes.
