Evaluation of genetic risk factors for silent brain infarction.

Stroke - 1 Sept 1999

Notsu Y, Nabika T, Park H Y, Masuda J, Kobayashi S

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Silent brain infarction (SBI) is often found with white matter hyperintensity. A recent genetic study on elderly twins indicated that the susceptibility to white matter hyperintensity was largely determined by genetic factors, implying the existence of genetic susceptibility for SBI as well. We therefore studied 3 genetic polymorphisms in SBI, the deletion/insertion polymorphism of...
