Post stroke depression: epidemiology, pathophysiology, and biological treatment
Abstract
Depression is a common occurrence after stroke and is associated with excess disability, cognitive impairment, and mortality. The authors undertook a systematic review of the English language literature to review several aspects of this illness, including the prevalence of this disorder, the debate on its etiology, and the current understanding of the biological treatment of poststroke depression. Methodological problems encountered in the study of poststroke depression are highlighted throughout the manuscript. The authors conclude that the available evidence supports poststroke depression as being multifactorial in origin and consistent with the biopsychosocial model of mental illness.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
