Behavioral and psychological changes following cerebrovascular pathology have long been known. Depression, often severe and long-lasting, is a common and often unrecognized component of stroke. Although many of the clinical characteristics of poststroke depression have been reported in the literature for years, systematic studies of the frequency, course, relationship to lesion location, and response to treatment have only recently been undertaken. In this review, the authors briefly examine these various aspects of poststroke depression.
脑血管病变后出现的行为和心理变化早已为人所知。抑郁症,通常严重且持久,是中风常见且常未被识别的一个组成部分。尽管多年来文献中已报道了中风后抑郁症的许多临床特征,但直到最近才对其发生率、病程、与病变部位的关系以及对治疗的反应进行系统研究。在这篇综述中,作者简要探讨了中风后抑郁症的这些不同方面。
