Wants Talk Psychotherapy but Cannot Talk: EMDR for Post-stroke Depression with Expressive Aphasia

Incidence, early case fatality and determinants of stroke in Iran: Golestan Cohort Study
Stroke is a neurological deficit secondary to an acute focal central nervous system injury caused by a vascular origin.1 In 2019, stroke was considered the second cause of death worldwide, accounting for 125 million Disability-Adjusted Life-Years (DALYs).2 In addition to physical disability, stroke causes tremendous emotional distress and a significant economic burden.3 Studies suggest that the global burden of stroke has been increasing during the past few decades. This increase has been attributed to aging populations and the rising prevalence of risk factors, particularly in low and middle-income countries.

Quality of Life Within Three Months After Stroke: A Study in the City of Arak, Iran.
CONCLUSION: It was concluded that being older, having higher NIHSS score, suffering from hypertension, right side lesion and previous stroke could be significantly correlated with poor patients' QoL. Therefore, effective interventions focusing on older individuals especially those with more severe impairments were assumed to help in improving post-stroke QoL in patients; regardless of their gender, level of education, and social activities.
