Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Sex differences have been recognized in stroke risk; however, the sex-dependent genetic contribution to stroke is unclear. We sought to examine the sex-dependent associations between genes involved in lipid metabolism and carotid atherosclerotic plaque, a subclinical precursor of stroke. METHODS: For the Genetic Determinant of Subclinical Carotid Disease study, 287 Dominicans ascertained...
