Prior neuropsychiatric disturbances are risk factors for stroke. There is a knowledge gap on the predictors of prestroke psychopathology, as well as their association with stroke outcomes in survivors living in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). We estimated prevalence, predictors, and association of prestroke neuropsychiatric symptoms with poststroke depression (PSD), disability, and mortality.
