Although the decline in poststroke mortality is a cause for celebration, 1 we must remain mindful that substantial poststroke disability is considered a worse outcome than death for many people. 2 Thus, an increased focus on stroke survivors, in particular, their cognitive and physical function, is needed. Stroke survivors face many of the same challenges as cancer survivors, and perhaps stroke survivorship could be modeled after the ongoing extensive survivorship care and research done by our oncology colleagues. 3In this issue of Stroke, Chen et al 4 used 16 years of data from the South London Stroke registry to explore the role of socioeconomic status (SES) and poststroke disability. In this well-done article, the authors found that SES was associated with 90-day and 3-year functional impairment as measured by the Barthel Index. When compared with the least deprived group of stroke survivors, the most deprived group of stroke survivors had over a 75% increase in the odds of poor functional outcome. This association remained after accounting for prominent predictors of poststroke disability, including age, stroke severity, and premorbid functional impairment. In stratified analysis, SES was associated with functional impairment in women, patients aged≥ 65 years, patients without comorbidities, and patients with an ischemic stroke but not other groups. Glasgow Coma Score and speech deficit were used to adjust for stroke severity rather than a more comprehensive severity measure like the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score, and this may explain a part of their significant findings.
