Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Recent data suggest that inflammatory reactions are involved in the pathogenesis of cerebral ischaemia. AIM: To investigate whether certain inflammatory genetic polymorphisms are associated with the occurrence of ischaemic stroke. METHODS: We investigated the prevalence of six polymorphisms in cytokine genes (IL-6, TNF-alpha, TNF-beta, IL-1beta, IL-10, and IL-1Ralpha) in a group of ischaemic stroke...
