TL;DR
To examine possible risk factors in post‐stroke depression other than site of lesion in the brain, a large number of patients with a history of stroke or deep vein thrombosis were surveyed.
Abstract
Results favoured the hypothesis that depression in an unselected group of stroke patients is no more common, and of no more specific aetiology, than it is among elderly patients with other physical illness.

230 Citations1990Allan House, Martin Dennis +3 more
A detailed follow-up study of patients with a stroke who had a CT scan which showed a neurologically appropriate single stroke lesion failed to confirm a number of recent claims about poststroke depressive disorders, and it is suggested that previous studies have different findings because of differences in the conventions applied to the definition and measurement of psychiatric disorders after stroke.
