Sumario: | OBJECTIVES: To investigate the association between prestroke physical activity and depressive symptoms up to 6 months after stroke and examine if citalopram treatment modified the association. DESIGN: A secondary analysis of data from the multicentre randomised controlled trial The Efficacy of Citalopram Treatment in Acute Ischemic Stroke (TALOS). SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: TALOS was conducted at multiple stroke centres in Denmark from 2013 to 2016. It enrolled 642 non-depressed patients with first-ever acute ischaemic stroke. Patients were eligible for this study if a prestroke physical activity level was assessed by the Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE). INTERVENTIONS: All patients were randomised to citalopram or placebo for 6 months. OUTCOMES: Depressive symptoms 1 and 6 months after stroke measured on the Major Depression Inventory (MDI) ranging from 0 to 50. RESULTS: A total of 625 patients were included. Median (IQR) age was 69 (60–77) years, 410 (65.6%) were men, 309 (49.4 %) received citalopram and median (IQR) prestroke PASE score was 132.5 (76–197). Higher prestroke PASE quartile, compared with the lowest PASE quartile, was associated with fewer depressive symptoms both after 1 month (mean difference third quartile −2.3 (−4.2, –0.5), p=0.013, mean difference fourth quartile −2.4 (−4.3, –0.5), p=0.015) and 6 months after stroke (mean difference third quartile −3.3 (−5.5, –1.2), p=0.002, mean difference fourth quartile −2.8 (−5.2, –0.3), p=0.027). There was no interaction between citalopram treatment and prestroke PASE score on poststroke MDI scores (p=0.86). CONCLUSIONS: A higher prestroke physical activity level was associated with fewer depressive symptoms 1 and 6 months after stroke. Citalopram treatment did not seem to modify this association. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBERS: NCT01937182 (ClinicalTrials.gov) and 2013-002253-30 (EUDRACT). |
