Clinical Trial Summary

Single-center prospective observational study investigating the association of brainstem raphe hypoechogenicity detected by transcranial sonography and post-stroke depression three months after an acute ischemic stroke.


Clinical Trial Description

Post-stroke depression (PSD) is an important complication after a stroke. Despite significant limitations between studies of PSD risk factors, stroke severity or post-stroke disability, prior depressive episodes, and female sex are arguably the most well-known risk factors for developing PSD, although the predictive value of these factors is limited. A hypoechogenic brainstem raphe (BR) detected by transcranial sonography (TCS) is associated with depressive symptoms in distinct diseases but is also common with approximately 25% of the non-depressed population in Europe. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the association between BR hypoechogenicity and PSD occurrence in a prospective observational study design. ;
