Description

Stroke is one of the major causes of death and disability both globally and in Bangladesh. Lifestyle traits are already known as a major indicator of healthy living and they might have relationships with post-stroke outcomes. A cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2021 to June 2024, involving 1052 ischemic stroke patients from eight different areas of Bangladesh. Data were collected through interviews and standardized tools like the Barthel Index for activities of daily living, and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 for psychological assessment.
