Abstract
These results suggest a high frequency of early VCI in older Nigerian stroke survivors. Apart from aging, associated neurodegeneration and cognitive decline, educational level and pre-stroke diet particularly fish consumption were identified as modifiable factors. This emphasizes the vital role of education and healthy nutrition in building reserves to ameliorate cognitive dysfunction after stroke.
