Abstract


Post ⁃ stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) is one of the most important factors leading to post ⁃ stroke disability. In recent years, studies have shown that patients with PSCI have gastrointestinal microbiome imbalance. Besides, gastrointestinal microbiome also plays an important role in the occurrence and development of PSCI. As a consequence, this research reviews the progress on the relationship between the PSCI and the gastrointestinal microbiome, in order to provide a new perspective for the prevention, the treatment and research direction of PSCI.
