Post-Stroke Depression Therapy: Where are we Now?
Abstract Post-stroke depression is an important psychological consequence of ischemic stroke, and affects around one third of stroke patients at any time post-stroke. It has a negative impact on patient morbidity and mortality, and as such development of effective post-stroke recognition and treatment strategies are very important.

In this review, we present evidence regarding the underlying biology of post-stroke depression, commonalities between post-stroke depression and Major ...
