Alterations in anxiety and social behaviour in Npas4 deficient mice following photochemically-induced focal cortical stroke.
In this study we investigated the role of Npas4 in modulating these stroke-induced neuropsychiatric responses by comparing the performance of wildtype and Npas4(-/-) mice in various cognitive and behavioural tasks in a photochemical model of focal cortical stroke. We show that this stroke model results in impaired spatial recognition memory and a reduction in despair-like behaviour that affect both genotypes to a similar degree. Moreover, mice lacking Npas4 also show differences in some aspects of post-stroke sociability and anxiety. Specifically, we show that while stroke had no effect on anxiety levels in wildtype mice, ...

Anxiety disorders and risk of stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: Anxiety disorders are a very prevalent modifiable condition associated with risk of stroke increased by 24%. This evidence could inform the development of interventions for the management of anxiety and the prevention of stroke. Further studies on the risk of stroke in patients with anxiety, and the explanatory factors for this association, are required. PMID: 28135591 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The efficacy of problem solving therapy to reduce post stroke emotional distress in younger (18-65) stroke survivors.
CONCLUSION: The between-subject results suggest that there was no significant difference between those that received problem solving therapy and a waitlist control group between baseline and post-waitlist/post-therapy. The within-subject design suggests that problem solving therapy may be beneficial for younger stroke survivors when they are given some time to learn and implement the skills into their day to day life. However, additional research with a control group is required to investigate this further. This study provides limited evidence for the provision of support groups for younger stroke survivors post stroke, ho...

Time-course investigation of postural sway variability: Does anxiety exacerbate the sensory reweighting impairment in chronic stroke survivors?
Publication date: Available online 8 March 2019Source: NeuropsychologiaAuthor(s): Shamsi Jamali, Akram Azad, Hajar Mehdizadeh, Asgar Doostdar, Fatemeh Hoseinpour, Maryam Mehdizadeh, Javad Niazi-Khatoon, Mohammad Reza Shokouhyan, Mohamad Parnianpour, Ghorban Taghizadeh, Kinda KhalafAbstractAlthough anxiety is one of the most prevalent psychological disorders in stroke survivors, its effect on sensory reweighting has not yet been fully studied. The aim of this work was to investigate how anticipation of collision avoidance events affects sensory reweighting in chronic stroke survivors with low and high levels of anxiety (LA-...

The validity of proxy responses on patient-reported outcome measures: Are proxies a reliable alternative to stroke patients ’ self-report?
ConclusionsBoth patient- and proxy-reported PROMs demonstrated strong validity. Only patient-reported PROMs were responsive to change, and proxies had worse validity for patients  ≤ 3 months from stroke but better validity for patients >  3 months from stroke. These findings justify the utilization of proxy responses in stroke patients >  3 months from stroke.

Temporal evolution and predictors of subjective cognitive complaints up to 4 years after stroke
CONCLUSION: Post-stroke subjective cognitive complaints increase over time and can be predicted by the extent of subjective cognitive complaints and the presence of adaptive and maladaptive psychological factors in the early phases after stroke.PMID:33948672 | DOI:10.2340/16501977-2840

Health anxiety in stroke survivors: a cross-sectional study on the prevalence of health anxiety in stroke survivors and its impact on quality of life
CONCLUSIONS: Almost a third of stroke survivors were experiencing clinical levels of health anxiety, with HiHA significantly associated with lower quality of life. Future research should explore the use of existing evidence based psychological interventions for health anxiety in this population.Implications for rehabilitationOur findings suggest almost one in three stroke survivors residing in the community have clinical levels of health anxiety.High health anxiety in stroke survivors was significantly related to lower levels of quality of life.Given this finding, evidence-based treatments for health anxiety may improve qu...

Effect on anxiety and depression of a multifactorial risk factor intervention program after stroke and TIA: a randomized controlled trial.
Conclusion: A structured, multidisciplinary, multifactorial risk factor program including vascular risk factor management may be associated with reduced HADS scores and a lower prevalence of depressive symptoms one year after stroke. PMID: 23957255 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Young individuals with stroke: a cross sectional study of long-term disability associated with self-rated global health
Conclusion: The negative effects of stroke, on self-rated global health among young individuals living in the community, appear to be substantial, multi factorial and long-standing which call for interdisciplinary research collaborations and team measures by health care long-term.

Effect of Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) Endovascular Closure on Stroke Quality of Life (P4.229)
Conclusion: PFO stroke patients have improved quality of life after PFO closure as measured by validated quantitative anxiety and depression scales under multi-disciplinary care. Patient’s stress hormone levels were also lowered post PFO closure. These findings demonstrate the importance of a multi-disciplinary approach to stroke patient care, and individualizing care in younger stroke patients. Longer term future studies are needed to understand the effect of PFO closure vs multi-disciplinary specialized care.Study Supported by: NIH/NINDSDisclosure: Dr. K has nothing to disclose.

Natural history, predictors and associated outcomes of anxiety up to 10 years after stroke: the South London Stroke Register
Conclusions: anxiety is a frequent problem affecting stroke survivors in the long term. Clinicians should pay attention to patients at risk of anxiety since it is associated with lower QoL and depression.

Depression and anxiety symptoms post-stroke/ TIA: prevalence and associations in cross-sectional data from a regional stroke registry
We described cross-sectional prevalence of depression and anxiety symptoms using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Data on clinical and demographic details was collected and univariable and multivariable analyses performed to describe associations with HADS scores. We examined those with a diagnosis of `stroke? and `TIA? as separate cohorts. Results: From 13,283 potentially eligible stroke patients in the registry, we had full HADS data on 4,079. Of the 3,584 potentially eligible TIA patients, we had full HADS data on 1,247 patients. Across the stroke cohort, 1181 (29%) had HADS anxiety scores suggestive of...
