Group comparisons (PDPD vs non-PDPD) with adjustment for covariates were carried out either using multivariate analysis of variance or logistic regression analysis.Results: More severe strokes (ie, mean National Institute of Health Stroke Scale score on admission 10.1±7.9 vs 7.5±7.4; F(10,796)=18.5, p<0.0001) and higher prevalence of poor outcome (73.7 vs 54.9%; OR: 2.6, standard error: 0.5, z=4.82, p<0.0001) was found in patients with a documented psychiatric diagnosis at the time of stroke, as well as a higher rate of psychiatric complications during the initial treatment phase (46.7 vs 28.9%; OR: −0.78, z=4.59, p<0.0001).Conclusion: Our data have clinical implications in that they call for identification of psychiatric premorbidity or comorbidity through careful history-taking and particularly close monitoring for psychiatric complications with respect to their potentially negative impact on outcome after stroke.Keywords: stroke, psychiatric disorder, comorbidityHoyer CSchmidt HLKranaster LAlonso ADove Medical Pressarticlestrokepsychiatric disordercomorbidityNeurosciences.
