Oral anticoagulant treatment for secondary prevention after cerebral ischaemia of presumed arterial origin is associated with a higher bleeding rate than cardioembolic stroke. This discrepancy is only partly explained by known bleeding risk factors. Haemostatic genetic variants and AB0 blood group may be involved. We performed a nested casecontrol study in patients with cerebral ischaemia of presumed arterial...
