Long term Post-Stroke Functional Outcomes: a comparison of diabetics and non-diabetics
Conclusions: DM was associated with poor functional outcomes following ischemic stroke in the long term with the effect remaining consistent throughout the 7-year follow-up period. Age modified the effe ct of DM in the long term, with an observed increase in risk in the ≤65 age group but not in the>65 age group.
