Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Carotid artery stenosis (CS) is a major risk factor for ischemic cerebrovascular disease (ICVD) and is therefore of interest in genetic investigating. Here we report the distribution of 100 polymorphisms in 47 suspected susceptibility genes for ICVD and its risk factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Previously published markers in suspected susceptibility genes were genotyped in ICVD patients and controls...
