Prevalence of PSD and PSD course categories in the FL and NFL groups.
A. Prevalence of PSD in the FL and NFL groups at 14±2 days (33.9% vs 27.8%, p = 0.175), 3-month (29.6% vs 19.8%, p = 0.017), 6-month (22.6% vs 15.0%, p = 0.042) and 1-year (19.6% vs 14.3%, p = 0.138). B. Proportion of two courses of depression categories in the FL and NFL groups, 16.5% vs 9.4%, p = 0.028 for persistent/recurrent depression. FL Group, patients with frontal lobe lesions; NFL Group, patients without frontal lobe lesions.
