Abstract: Objective: To investigate the correlation between poststroke depression (PSD) and serum levels of inflammatory cytokines, neurologic impairment, daily life ability in patients with acute cerebral infarction at different time. Methods: Two hundreds and eighty patients who admitted to our hospital with a diagnosis of acute infarction excluded the patients mismatch conditions were evaluated by Hamilton depres-sion rating scale (HDRS) to diagnose PSD respectively at admission and 3 months after stroke. Serum inflammatory cytokines high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and interleukin-6(IL-6) were determined. NIH stroke scale(NIHSS) and Barthel index for daily life ability were used to evaluate nerve functions. Then we analyzed the correlation between PSD and serum inflammatory cytokines, correlation between PSD and functional impairment and daily life ability at different time. Logistic regression was performed to ana-lyze the risk factors of PSD. Results: The PSD incidence was higher in recovery stage than that in acute stage, but there was no difference. Serum inflammatory cytokines were higher in PSD group at admission than that in non-PSD group. The NIHSS score and Barthel index in PSD group were different from those in non-group at acute and recovery stage. The OR score was 1.765, 1.646, 1.817, 1.188 and 2.015 respec-tively to TNF-α, IL-6 and Barthel index in the acute phase and to NIHSS and Barthel index in recovery stage. Conclusion: The pathogenesis of PSD at different courses of stroke is not same. TNF-α, IL-6 and Barthel index are the independent risk factors of PSD in acute phase, so do NIHSS score and Barthel index in recovery period.
