Stroke increases risk for disability. Obesity and diabetes also increase risk for disability in the general population, but their association with disability in stroke survivors is unknown. We examined disability risk associated with obesity and diabetes in stroke survivors across six disability types: hearing, vision, cognition, mobility, and basic and instrumental activities of daily living (ADLs). Data from 37,955 community-dwelling US stroke survivors aged ≥18 years were analyzed from the 2017 and 2018 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. Linear regression was used to calculate prevalence of each disability type. Survivors were stratified by obesity versus normal weight and diabetes vs no diabetes, and logistic regression was used to calculate adjusted odds ratios (AOR) for each disability type, adjusted for demographic information. Prevalences of disability types ranged from 14.2% to 36.0%. Among survivors with obesity, odds were elevated for mobility (AOR: 1.68) and basic ADL (AOR: 1.55) disability. Among survivors with diabetes, odds were elevated for all disability types (AOR range: 1.15–1.71). Stroke survivors with obesity or diabetes experience increased risk for disability compared to survivors without these chronic conditions. Interventions for managing disability, obesity, and diabetes concomitantly may be warranted and deserve further consideration.
