Cerebellar Stroke's hidden toll on mood revealed
NCT ID NCT03515486
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 38 people who had a first stroke in the cerebellum, a brain area involved in mood. Researchers used interviews and smartphone tracking to measure depression, anxiety, and apathy in daily life. The goal was to better understand how these mood problems develop and how they relate to brain changes seen on advanced MRI scans.
