| Abstract | BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Depression, imbalance, and physical disability are among the serious stroke sequels. The objective of this study was to examine the correlation between depression, balance, and self-reported physical performance in patients post stroke. METHODS: The Arabic versions of the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Dynamic Gait Index (A-DGI), and physical Stroke Impact Scale-16 version 3 were administered to a convenience sample of patients post stroke. The correlation between the mentioned measures was calculated using the Pearson coefficient. Additionally, the Kruskal-Wallis test was used to find out if the distribution of measurement scores differs among BDI levels of depression intensity or among Orpington Prognostic Scale (OPS) levels of stroke severity. RESULTS: Sixty-one patients with stroke (mean age [standard deviation] = 64 [12] years, 39 male) were recruited. Significant moderate correlations were found between BDI and A-DGI, BDI and Stroke Impact Scale (SIS), and A-DGI and physical SIS. Additionally, the distribution of the A-DGI and the physical SIS scores showed significant differences among BDI levels of depression intensity. Moreover, the distribution of the BDI, A-DGI, and physical SIS scores showed significant differences among OPS levels of stroke severity. CONCLUSIONS: Depressive symptoms were found frequent among people post stroke and were associated with balance and self-reported physical performance. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
