Post-stroke depression (PSD) is one of the emotional disorders after the onset of stroke. Many studies have indicated that inflammatory processes can promote the occurrence and development of PSD. The purpose of our study was to explore the potential relationship between PSD and two inflammatory biomarkers: inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and macrophage inflammatory protein 1α (MIP-1α).
