Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Elevated fibrinogen levels are suggested to increase the risk of myocardial infarction and stroke. Carriers of the A allele of the fibrinogen -455G/A polymorphism have increased plasma fibrinogen levels. We studied the association of this polymorphism with stroke subtype in the Stroke Aging Memory (SAM) cohort. METHODS: The SAM cohort comprises 486 consecutive patients 55 to 85 years of...
