Abstract
Background
Post-stroke depression (PSD) is the most prevalent neuropsychological disorder among stroke patients, affecting approximately one-third of stroke survivors at any one time after a stroke. We identified between-person associations between post-stroke depression trajectories across 3 timepoints and predictors affecting trajectory classification among stroke patients.
Methods
This is a prospective longitudinal study using a convenience sample of 119 participants from 2 tertiary hospitals from March 2022 to September 2022. Clinical assessments and data collection were performed at diagnosis (T1), 3 months (T2), and 6 months (T3) after diagnosis. The instruments were Demographic and Disease Information Sheet and PROMIS-Depression 8a. Data were analyzed using SPSS 27.0 for descriptive statistics, logistic regression, and the Mplus program for growth mixture model analysis.
Results
Two stroke survivors depression trajectory classes (Class 1, moderate level decreasing- [37.8 %], and Class 2, high level increasing- [62.2%]) were delineated. Class 1 experienced moderate depression post-stroke, with a smooth diminishing pattern at T2 and T3, while Class 2 had a higher baseline depressive score and a significant increase at T2 and T3. The best growth mixture model was Class 2 model (LMR, p=0.010, BLRT, p≤0.01, AIC=2611.934, BIC=2650.842, aBIC=2606.583, Entropy= 0.944). The logistic regression results revealed that Class 2 of depression trajectory had a significant association with a lower score on cognitive function (B=-5.29, 95%CI: -8.80, -1.78, p <0.05) compared with Class 1. The stroke type, marital status, and monthly income were predictors of the Class 2 depression trajectory group among stroke patients. Precisely, ischemic stroke is associated with lower risk of class 2 trajectory.
Conclusion
The trajectory of post-stroke depression changes over time. This research has the potential to serve as a foundation for the assessment of high-risk stroke patients, the development of precise management programs, the implementation of risk stratification, and the enhancement of prognosis.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Stroke & Cerebrovascular Diseases publishes original papers on basic and clinical science related to the fields of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases. The Journal also features review articles, controversies, methods and technical notes, selected case reports and other original articles of special nature. Its editorial mission is to focus on prevention and repair of cerebrovascular disease. Clinical papers emphasize medical and surgical aspects of stroke, clinical trials and design, epidemiology, stroke care delivery systems and outcomes, imaging sciences and rehabilitation of stroke. The Journal will be of special interest to specialists involved in caring for patients with cerebrovascular disease, including neurologists, neurosurgeons and cardiologists.
