The clinical information, scale data, biomarkers in peripheral venous blood, and imaging data during hospitalization and follow-up period were collected.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold>\n                    Patient age (range 34\u201378) was positively correlated with the prevalence of fatigue (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.009). Both blood norepinephrine and serotonin levels during hospitalization were negatively correlated to the prevalence of post-stroke fatigue (model 1\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.009 and model 2\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.043, respectively).

Compared to non-fatigue patients, amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) was lower in several areas of brain in stroke patients with fatigue, including the right orbital inferior frontal, right inner orbital frontal, right frontal, right triangular frontal inferior, right anterior and lateral cingulate, and right medial frontal gyruses.
