Depression Symptoms Could Be A Warning of Heart Stroke Risk, Says Study

News 18  

Depressive symptoms may be a warning that a person may encounter a stroke. While post-stroke depression is a common problem experienced by many, a recent study published in the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology has pointed out that people develop depressive symptoms years before the stroke even occurred. However, two years before the stroke, the scores of people who later had a stroke started rising by an average of 0.33 points. At the assessment before the stroke, 29 per cent of people who later had a stroke met the criteria of having probable depression. But even slight increases in depressive symptoms, especially mood and fatigue-related symptoms, maybe a signal of a stroke that is about to occur,” said Maria Blöchl, PhD, of the University of Münster in Germany.
