| Core Tip |
This retrospective study shows that evolocumab lipid-lowering therapy greatly ameliorates the multi-dimensional prognosis in patients with post-cerebral infarction depression. The remission rates for depression nearly doubled (58.3% vs 31.9%) associated with concurrent improvements in cognition, functional independence, and rehospitalization. This parallel reduction in inflammatory markers with proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 further supports a neuroinflammation-mediated mechanism. These results delineate evolocumab as an approach with dual therapeutic implications mitigating cardiovascular risk and neuropsychiatric sequelae in patients post-cerebral infarction. |
