Article Synopsis
- Esketamine has been proven effective for treatment-resistant depression (TRD), but its high cost and limited knowledge on treatment duration highlight the need for better outcome predictions.* -
- A study with TRD patients receiving esketamine identified two response trajectories—responders and non-responders—while showing that initial depression scores can predict future treatment success with 80% accuracy.* -
- Although the findings are promising, the study's observational nature and lack of a placebo group mean more controlled experiments are needed to validate these predictions and improve treatment decisions.*
Purpose: Post-stroke depression (PSD) affects one third of stroke survivors, with multiple severe negative consequences. We aim to assess the weight of four different types of clinical risk factors for PSD.
Patients And Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study in a stroke centre.
Objectives: Poststroke depression (PSD) is a public health issue, affecting one-third of stroke survivors, and is associated with multiple negative consequences. Reviews tried to identify PSD risk factors with discrepant results, highlighting the lack of comparability of the analyzed studies. We carried out a meta-analysis in order to identify clinical risk factors that can predict PSD.
