A study of twins and stroke.

1 Feb 1992

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Although there are strong genetic contributions to coronary artery disease, only a few studies have considered heritable influences on stroke. METHODS: We investigated the role of genetic factors in stroke using the Twin Registry maintained by the National Academy of Sciences-National Research Council. The registry includes 15,948 male twin pairs born between 1917 and 1927. In 1985, 9,475...
