Feasibility and Effectiveness of Treatments for Post-Stroke Depression in Elderly Inpatients: Systematic Review
Bibliographic record
Abstract
To determine the feasibility and effectiveness of antidepressive treatments for post-stroke depression in elderly medical inpatients, MEDLINE was searched for potentially relevant articles published from January 1987 to August 1997 using the keywords "depression or depressive disorder" (exploded) and "aged." Thirteen reports met the following inclusion criteria: (1) published in English or French; (2) minimum age criterion of 55 and over or mean age 65 and over; (3) post-stroke subjects admitted to a medical, geriatric, or rehabilitation service; (4) used accepted criteria for depression; (5) examined treatment(s) for depression; and (6) reported outcomes as a depression diagnosis and/or symptom level. Data were abstracted independently from each article by two reviewers. The limited evidence suggests contraindications to treatment of 83% of a group to receive a heterocyclic antidepressant compared with 11% of a group to receive a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI); rates of discontinuation and study completion are similar for heterocyclics, SSRIs and psychostimulants. All of the treatments appear to be at least modestly effective in the short term.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
