From: The impact of incident stroke on cognitive trajectories in later life
Predicted change in cognitive function after stroke (centred at time 0) Note: Results from mixed linear regression models with participant-specific random intercept and slope adjusting for overall follow-up time (in years), a time-varying stroke variable (centred at year 0, .i.e. stroke occurred at year 0), time after an incident stroke (includes time points after 0). Other covariates included in the models were sex, age, ethnicity and country, education, smoking, alcohol consumption, depressive symptoms, diabetes, and baseline cognition score.
