| Core Tip |
Post-stroke depression remains a major challenge in stroke rehabilitation and is often influenced by metabolic and inflammatory factors associated with obesity. The weight-to-waist index has emerged as a promising tool for assessing central obesity, offering better predictive value than the traditional body mass index. Recognizing the weight-to-waist index as a critical factor in post-stroke depression risk assessment could enhance early detection and intervention strategies, ultimately improving long-term outcomes for stroke survivors. |
