Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays a role in atherosclerosis-related diseases such as cerebrovascular or cardiovascular diseases. However, the effect of VEGF -2578C>A, -1154G>A, -634G>C, and 936C>T polymorphisms on the susceptibility to stroke and silent brain infarction has not been reported. METHODS: Using polymerase chain reaction-amplified DNA, VEGF polymorphisms were...
