RESUMO
BACKGROUND: In recent decades, considerable advances have been made in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke (IS) and its prevention. However, even after treatment, approximately two-thirds of patients with IS have some degree of disability that requires rehabilitation, along with an increased possibility of developing psychiatric disorders, particularly depression. OBJECTIVE: To determine the predictors of post-stroke depression in a 6-month period in patients with IS. METHOD: Ninety-seven patients with IS without previous depression were included in the study. The study protocol was applied during hospitalization and at 30, 90, and 180 days after hospital discharge. A binary logistic regression was then used. Age, sex, marital status, occupation, education, thrombolysis, National Institute of Health Stroke Scale, modified Rankin scale (mRS) score, Barthel index, and Mini-Mental State Examination score were included as independent variables. RESULTS: Of the 97 patients, 24% of patients developed post-stroke depression. In the longitudinal follow-up, an mRS score of > 0 was the lone significant predictor of depression development (odds ratio = 5.38; 95% confidence interval: 1.25-23.12; p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Our results showed that in patients without previous depression, functional impairment of any degree has a 5-fold greater chance of leading to depression development in the first 6 months post-stroke as compared to that in patients without functional impairment.

Professor Charcot had several pupils in his famous neurological service at the Salpêtrière Hospital in Paris, France. Among them, Édouard Brissaud was one of Charcot's favorite pupils, temporarily becoming his successor after Charcot's death. Brissaud's neurological contributions were significant, including the description of hemifacial spasm, "geste antagoniste" in dystonia, pseudobulbar affect, post-traumatic stress disorder, the Brissaud-Sicard syndrome, and Brissaud's sign. Additionally, Brissaud was the first to suggest that Parkinson's disease pathology could be related to the substantia nigra.

RESUMO Professor Charcot teve vários discípulos em seu famoso serviço de neurologia no hospital Salpêtrière, em Paris, França. Dentre eles, Édouard Brissaud foi um dos pupilos favoritos de Charcot. Após a morte de Charcot, em 1893, Brissaud foi o seu sucessor temporário. Suas contribuições neurológicas foram muito expressivas, incluindo a descrição do espasmo hemifacial, do "geste antagoniste", da paralisia pseudobulbar, do transtorno de estresse pós-traumático, a síndrome de Brissaud-Sicard, e também do sinal de Brissaud. Além disso, Brissaud, sugeriu pela primeira vez no mundo, que a patologia da doença de Parkinson poderia estar relacionada à substância negra.
