متن کاملHealth-related quality of life among young adults with ischemic stroke on long-term follow-up.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We sought to compare health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in young adults with ischemic stroke on long-term follow-up with controls and to evaluate HRQoL in clinically relevant patient subgroups. METHODS HRQoL was determined with the use of the 8 subscales of the Short-Form General Health Survey (SF-36). Subgroups of patients were defined by sex, age, functional statu...
