Abstract
Detailed data on post-stroke depression (PSD) in older adults are limited in spite of the high vulnerability of this population to stroke. In fact, PSD prevalence in older adults ranges from 16.0 to 43.9%; however, timing and instruments of evaluation often differ significantly across all available studies. The etiology, genetic and inflammatory factors, as well as structural brain alterations, are claimed as part of a multifaceted mechanism of action in PSD onset. Thus, the aim of this narrative review was to further elaborate on the prevalence, etiology, diagnosis, consequences and treatment of PSD in older adults. The consequences of PSD in older adults may be devastating, including a poor functional outcome after rehabilitation and lower medication adherence. In addition, lower quality of life and reduced social participation, higher risk of new stroke, rehospitalization, and mortality have been reported. In this scenario, treating PSD represents a crucial step to prevent these complications. Both pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies are currently available. The pharmacological treatment utilizes antidepressant drugs, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), tricyclic antidepressants (TAs) and new multimodal antidepressants (NMAs). Non-pharmacological therapies include psychological interventions and non-invasive brain stimulation techniques, while excluding drug administration. In the general population experiencing PSD, SSRIs (sertraline in particular) are the most prescribed, whereas the combination of antidepressants and psychotherapy is underused. Furthermore, about one-third of patients do not receive treatment for PSD. In regard to older adults with PSD, the possibility of more adverse effects or contraindications to antidepressant prescription due to comorbidities may limit the therapeutic window. Although drugs such as citalopram, escitalopram, sertraline, venlafaxine, and vortioxetine are usually well tolerated by older patients with PSD, the few randomized controlled trials (RCTs) specifically considering older adults with PSD have been conducted with fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, reboxetine, citalopram and nortriptyline, often with very small patient samples. Furthermore, data regarding the results of non-pharmacological therapies are scarce. High-quality RCTs recruiting large samples of older adults are needed in order to better manage PSD in this population. In addition, adequate screening and diagnosis instruments, with reliable timing of evaluation, should be applied.

Ginkgo biloba extract EGb 761® improves cognition and overall condition after ischemic stroke: Results from a pilot randomized trial. Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1147860. [PMID: 37063270 PMCID: PMC10090660 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1147860] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2023] [Accepted: 03/20/2023] [Indexed: 03/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Patients who experienced an ischemic stroke are at risk for cognitive impairment. Quantified Ginkgo biloba extract EGb 761® has been used to treat cognitive dysfunction, functional impairment and neuropsychiatric symptoms in mild cognitive impairment and dementia.Objectives: To assess the cognitive-related effects of EGb 761® treatment in patients after acute ischemic stroke, as well as the feasibility of patient selection and outcome measures.Methods: We conducted a randomized, multicentric, open-label trial at 7 centers in China. Patients scoring 20 or lower on the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale were enrolled between 7 and 14 days after stroke onset and randomly assigned to receive 240 mg per day of EGb 761® or no additional therapy for 24 weeks in a 1:1 ratio. Both groups received standard treatments for the prevention of recurrent stroke during the trial. General cognitive function and a battery of cognitive tests for sub-domains were evaluated at 24 weeks. All patients were monitored for adverse events.Results: 201 patients ≥50 years old were included, with 100 assigned to the EGb 761® group and 101 to the reference group. The mean change from baseline on the global cognitive function as assessed by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment score was 2.92 in the EGb 761® group and 1.33 in the reference group (between-group difference: 1.59 points; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.51 to 2.67; p < 0.005). For cognitive domains, EGb 761® showed greater effects on the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test Total Recall (EGb 761® change 1.40 vs. reference −0.49) and Form 1 of the Shape Trail Test (EGb 761® change −38.2 vs. reference −15.6). Potentially EGb 761®-related adverse events occurred in no more than 3% of patients.Conclusion: Over the 24-week period, EGb 761® treatment improved overall cognitive performance among patients with mild to moderate ischemic stroke. Our findings provide valuable recommendations for the design of future trials, including the criteria for patient selection.Clinical Trial Registration:www.isrctn.com, identifier ISRCTN11815543.

Symptomatic plaque enhancement is associated with early-onset post-stroke depression. J Affect Disord 2022; 306:281-287. [PMID: 35337924 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2022.03.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2021] [Revised: 01/07/2022] [Accepted: 03/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between imaging features closely associated with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic plaques and early-onset post-stroke depression (PSD) is currently unclear. MATERIALS AND METHODS 76 ischemic stroke patients who underwent high-resolution vessel wall magnetic resonance imaging (HR-VWI) were divided into PSD and non-PSD groups according to their DSM-V diagnoses and HAMD-17 scores at 14 days after onset. Clinical data and the imaging features associated with symptomatic plaques (including the enhancement index (EI), remodeling index, and plaque surface irregularity) were compared between groups. Multifactorial logistic regression analysis was used to find independent predictors of early-onset PSD. Spearman rank correlation analysis explores the association between clinical data, symptomatic plaque imaging features, and HAMD-17 in patients. RESULTS The sample comprised 36 patients with early-onset PSD. The symptomatic plaque EI and infarct volume were significantly higher in depressed patients than in patients without depression (P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression showed that symptomatic plaque EI could be used as an independent predictor of early-onset PSD after correcting for the confounding factor of infarct volume (OR = 1.034, 95% CI:1.014-1.055, P = 0.001). In the total sample, symptomatic plaque EI, infarct volume, and HAMD-17 had a significant positive correlation with each other (P < 0.05). LIMITATIONS This study focused only on the patients' symptomatic plaques and did not monitor patients' systemic inflammation levels at the time of HR-VWI. CONCLUSIONS The degree of symptomatic plaque enhancement is an independent predictive imaging marker of early-onset PSD and can be used the early diagnosis of early-onset PSD.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Poststroke depression (PSD) is the most frequent and important neuropsychiatric problem afflicting these patients. Anemia is common in many of these individuals presenting with acute stroke. This study determined whether there is a relationship between anemia on hospital admission and PSD. Two hundred eighty-four acute stroke patients were included in the study. Among them, there were 88 PSD patients, whereas another 196 were non-PSD patients. Clinical depression symptoms were diagnosed according to DSM-4 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition) criteria and a HAMD-17 (the 17-item Hamilton Depression Scale) score ≥8 at 1 month after stroke. In the PSD patients, 27.3% of them presented with anemia, whereas only 12.8% of the non-PSD patients had this condition. There was a negative correlation between hemoglobin level and HAMD-17 score in all patients. A binary logistic regression analysis revealed that anemia was independently associated with PSD after adjustment for sex, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale scores, mRS (modified Rankin Scale) scores, BI (Barthel Index) scores, RBC (red blood cell), and hematocrit. In conclusion, anemia at admission is associated with PSD seen in these patients 1 month later. Therefore, anemia is a possible predictor of PSD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The aim was to study the effect of intravenous alteplase on the development of post-stroke depression (PSD) in acute stroke patients, and to identify predictors of PSD. METHODS This post hoc analysis included patients with unknown onset stroke randomized to treatment with alteplase or placebo in the WAKE-UP trial (ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT01525290), in whom a composite end-point of PSD was defined as a Beck Depression Inventory ≥10, medication with an antidepressant, or depression recorded as an adverse event. Multiple logistic regression was used to identify predictors of PSD at 90 days. Structural equation modelling was applied to assess the indirect effect of thrombolysis on PSD mediated by the modified Rankin Scale. RESULTS Information on the composite end-point was available for 438 of 503 randomized patients. PSD was present in 96 of 224 (42.9%) patients in the alteplase group and 115 of 214 (53.7%) in the placebo group (odds ratio 0.63; 95% confidence interval 0.43-0.94; p = 0.022; adjusted for age and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale at baseline). Prognostic factors associated with PSD included baseline medication with antidepressants, higher lesion volume, history of depression and assignment to placebo. While 65% of the effect of thrombolysis on PSD were caused directly, 35% were mediated by an improvement of the mRS. CONCLUSIONS Treatment with alteplase in patients with acute stroke resulted in lower rates of depression at 90 days, which were only partially explained by reduced functional disability. Predictors of PSD including history and clinical characteristics may help in identifying patients at risk of PSD.

Abstract
Objetivo: Avaliar a presença da dor em indivíduos com acidente vascular cerebral (AVC) e sua relação com o desempenho funcional e a qualidade de vida (QV). Métodos: Estudo transversal onde 50 indivíduos com AVC atendidos em um centro de reabilitação foram avaliados por meio da Escala Visual Numérica (EVN), Questionário de Dor McGill, SF-36 e Índice de Barthel (IB). A estatística inferencial foi realizada por meio do Teste T e do coeficiente de correlação de Pearson. Resultados: A presença de dor foi verificada em 64% da população, com média sete na EVN e expressivo número e intensidade de descritores do McGill. Os pacientes com dor apresentaram piores escores para QV nos domínios saúde mental (p = 0,046), estado geral da saúde (p = 0,021), aspectos emocionais (p = 0,034) e dor (p < 0,0001). A dor no hemicorpo hígido estava presente em 37% dos pacientes. A EVN correlacionou-se com o estado geral da saúde da SF-36 (r = -0,359; p = 0,043); já o McGill com a saúde mental (r = -0,364; p = 0,041), capacidade funcional (r = -0,365; p = 0,039) e aspectos emocionais (r = -0,374; p = 0,035). Não houve relação entre a dor e o IB. Conclusões: Este estudo mostrou alta incidência e intensidade de dor em indivíduos com AVC, mesmo em reabilitação. A presença da dor interferiu mais na QV do que na função e o McGill relacionou-se com mais domínios da SF-36 do que a EVN.

Abstract
Background Observe the relationship of anxiety and depression on quality of life outcomes after open and endovascular cerebrovascular procedures. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 349 patients who underwent a procedure for aneurysm, arteriovenous malformation, intraparenchymal hemorrhage, carotid stenosis, acute stroke, and conventional catheter angiogram over three years at a community hospital. We correlated pre-procedural anxiety and depression with Global Physical Health, Global Mental Health, and Modified Rankin Scale scores. We performed univariate and multivariate linear and logistic regression analyses adjusting for past medical history and sociodemographic factors. Results Anxiety or depression occurred in 18 % of patients. Patients with anxiety or depression were more likely to be female (81% vs 60.8%; p = 0.002) and younger (54 vs. 59 years old; p = 0.025). The groups did not differ in type or urgency of procedure, smoking or history of diabetes. Patients with anxiety or depression reported lower mental health scores at 30 days (45.1 vs 48.2; p = 0.002) post-procedure. In multivariate analyses, anxious or depressed patients had worse mental health scores at 30 days (t = − 2.893; p = 0.008) than those who did not have a history of anxiety or depression. There was no difference between groups in length of stay, mortality, physical health t-scores, functionality scores, or six month quality of life outcomes. Conclusions Patients undergoing cerebrovascular procedures who self-reported anxiety or depression showed a significant difference in mental health outcomes at 30 days, but six month mental health and other medical and functional outcomes measures were similar to patients without these diagnoses.

Abstract
The main arguments in support of researching anxiety and depression in patients with chronic somatic diseases are the prevalence of affective disorders in the population, somatic conditions as risk factors of affective disorders and the search for effective preventative and therapeutic strategies. The aim of the study was to determine the association between the functional status, selected sociodemographic characteristics and prevalence as well as severity of anxiety and depression in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson's disease (PD) and history of stroke (S). Material and methods: Eighty participants (44 women and 36 men) with MS (n = 22), PD (n = 31) and history of stroke (n = 27) were enrolled. All participants completed a questionnaire consisting of metrics, the Katz Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Results: Fifty-five per cent of all participants did not present with anxiety or depression, 20% scored above the diagnostic threshold on the anxiety scale and 26% scored above the diagnostic threshold on the depression scale. Subgroup analysis revealed that anxiety and depression sufferers were 13.64% and 13.64% of MS patients, respectively; 22.58% and 35.48% of PD patients, respectively; and 22.22% and 25.93% of stroke survivors, respectively. There was a significant correlation between depression and independence level in the entire group and between depression and marital status in stroke survivors. Conclusions: Although depression and anxiety are highly prevalent in patients with neurological conditions, the disorder has a very individual nature and is not associated with the patient's age, duration of a condition or concomitant diseases. Screening for depression and anxiety as a part of comprehensive approach may increase treatment efficacy in neurological patients.

Abstract
Post-stroke depression (PSD) is a severe and frequent stroke complication and one of the crucial factors for the outcome of rehabilitation and life quality after stroke. However, mood disorders frequently remain unnoticed and therefore untreated. The aim of the study was to examine all the potential risk factors and determine the independent predictors of early-onset depression after first-ever stroke, which would help identify high-risk patients, establish early diagnosis and timely treatment that would improve the course and prognosis of this disorder. This prospective study included 60 patients treated for their first-ever stroke; there were 30 patients diagnosed with depression and 30 patients without depression. The study included collection and analysis of all socio-demographic and clinical risk factors for PSD. Testing was performed two weeks after stroke. Depression was diagnosed according to the Mini International Neuropsychiatry Interview, DSM-IV diagnostic criteria, and depression severity was quantified by the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale. Cognitive impairment was assessed by the Mini Mental State Examination. Neurological deficit was assessed by the US National Institute of Health Stroke Scale. Our results showed that the independent predictors of early-onset depression after stroke were previous depressive episodes, cognitive dysfunction, and more severe neurological deficit.

Assessment of the Progression of Poststroke Depression in Ischemic Stroke Patients Using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2020; 29:104561. [PMID: 31941579 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2019.104561] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2019] [Revised: 10/28/2019] [Accepted: 11/21/2019] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Poststroke depression (PSD) affects one-third of stroke patients and is linked with higher stroke morbidity, mortality, and recurrence. Current guidelines do not direct when to screen for PSD, and predictors of PSD are not well understood. We sought to understand progression of PSD symptoms early after ischemic stroke, identify predictors of PSD, and describe the use of antidepressants in PSD. METHODS We collected demographic, clinical, and PSD (Patient Health Questionnaire-9; PHQ-9) data from ischemic stroke patients hospitalized at our Comprehensive Stroke Center and followed up in our clinic. PHQ-9 was obtained during hospitalization and again in clinic within 180 days of discharge. We performed univariate analysis and logistic regression to detect variables associated with PSD. RESULTS Among 201 patients, PSD symptoms (PHQ-9 > 4) were identified in 30% of patients during hospitalization and 46% during follow-up (54% of which had no symptoms during hospitalization). At follow-up, 36% were worse by PHQ-9 category. In univariate analysis, follow-up modified Rankin Scale (mRS) greater than or equal to 2 (P = .03) and antidepressant prescription (P < .001) were associated with worsening PHQ-9 category. In logistic regression analysis, follow-up mRS greater than or equal to 2 (P = .02), posterior circulation stroke (P = .03), and antidepressant prescription (P < .01) were associated with worsening PHQ-9 category. CONCLUSIONS Almost half of ischemic stroke patients develop PSD symptoms and more than one-third worsen between hospitalization and follow-up. Poststroke disability (mRS ≥ 2) and posterior circulation stroke were associated with worsening PSD. Worsening PSD symptoms prompted treatment change in 29% of patients. Screening for PSD during hospitalization should be repeated during early follow-up.

[PMID: 31129437 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpsychires.2019.05.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2019] [Revised: 04/12/2019] [Accepted: 05/16/2019] [Indexed: 10/26/2022]
Abstract
We aimed to explore the circulating microRNAs biomarkers in the acute stage following cerebral ischemia to earlier warn late-onset post-stroke depression (PSD). A total of 251 consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke were recruited. They were divided into three groups depending on whether PSD had occurred at 2 weeks or 3 months since stroke: early-onset PSD, late-onset PSD, and non-depressed group. Microarray assay was conducted to identify the different expression profiles of plasma miRNAs. Comprehensive bioinformatics analysis for their integrating putative target genes was performed. The key miRNA was validated in a larger cohort and its function was further studied in ischemic mice brain. We screened three differentially expressed miRNAs in the late-onset PSD individuals, miR-140-5p and miR-221-3p were significantly upregulated while miR-1246 was downregulated. The bioinformatics analysis demonstrated that their predicted target genes were mainly enriched in axon development and Ras signaling pathway. Logistic regression analysis revealed that miR-140-5p was an independent risk factor for late-onset PSD (P = 0.017, OR = 2.313, 95%CI 1.158 to 4.617). The miR-140-5p expression on admission was significantly positively correlated with HDRS scores assessed at 3 months after stroke (P = 0.0007). The predictive value of miR-140-5p for late-onset PSD is 83.3% sensitivity and 72.6% specificity (AUC = 0.8127, P < 0.0001). AAV-mediated overexpression of miR-140-5p decreased the protein level of IL1rap, IL1rapl1, VEGF, and MEGF10 in the ischemic mouse hippocampus and inhibited neurogenesis and capillary density. MiR-140-5p might be involved in the pathogenesis of late-onset PSD and used as a novel early warning biomarker.

Arch Gerontol Geriatr 2018; 79:164-170. [PMID: 30265911 DOI: 10.1016/j.archger.2018.08.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2018] [Revised: 08/22/2018] [Accepted: 08/24/2018] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to explore the relationship between perceived stress, sense of coherence, and depression among older stroke patients. METHODS A demographic questionnaire, the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), the Sense of Coherence Scale (SOC) and the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) were distributed to 3000 older stroke patients from Neurology wards in six large general hospitals, and 2907 individuals completed the survey. Data analysis consisted of correlation, multiple linear regression, and structural equation modeling. RESULTS The total score of the SOC and perceived stress showed a negative correlation (r = -0.80, P < 0.01), the total SOC of coherence and depression also resulted in a negative correlation (r = -0.77, P < 0.01), and the total score of the perceived stress and depression resulted in a positive correlation (r = 0.82, P < 0.01). The results of multiple regression analyses indicated that SOC mediated the association between perceived stress and depression, and the influence of perceived stress on depression was decreased by 16.0%with in the sense of being out of control dimension and was decreased by 12.3% within the feeling of tension dimension when sense of coherence was added to the model. The structural equation model confirmed that the sense of coherence had a partial mediation effect between perceived stress and depression. CONCLUSION SOC is the mediating variable between perceived stress and depression, and can reduce the influence of perceived stress on depression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-stroke depression (PSD) seriously affects the rehabilitation of nerve function and quality of life. However, the pathogenesis of PSD is still not clear. This study aimed to investigate the demographic, clinical, and biochemical factors in patients with PSD. METHODS Patients with an acute ischemic stroke, who met the inclusion criteria at Shanghai Tenth People's Hospital from April 2016 to September 2016, were recruited for this study. The stroke severity was assessed using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), and the mental state was assessed using Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), and Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) at 1 week of admission. The patients were divided into PSD and non-PSD groups. The demographic and clinical characteristics, as well as the biochemical factors, were compared between the two groups. A logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the risk factors for depression following stroke. RESULTS A total of 83 patients with acute ischemic stroke were recruited. Of these, 36 (43.4%) developed depression. The multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that high NIHSS [odds ratio (OR): 1.84, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.09-3.12, P = 0.023] and high HAMD scores (OR: 2.38, 95% CI: 1.61-3.50, P < 0.001) were independent risk predictors for PSD and so were lower dopamine level (OR: 0.64, 95% CI: 0.45-0.91, P = 0.014), lower 5-hydroxytryptamine level (OR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-1.00, P = 0.046), higher tumor necrosis factor-α level (OR: 1.05, 95% CI: 1.00-1.09, P = 0.044), and lower nerve growth factor level (OR: 0.06, 95% CI: 0.01-0.67, P = 0.022). CONCLUSIONS The identification of higher NIHSS scores, higher HAMD scores, lower dopamine level, lower 5-hydroxytryptamine level, higher tumor necrosis factor-α level, and lower nerve growth factor level might be useful for clinicians in recognizing and treating depression in patients after a stroke.
