Screening of cerebral infarction-related genetic markers using a Cox regression analysis between onset age and heterozygosity at randomly selected short tandem repeat loci.

Abstract excerpt

The aim of this paper is to explore whether the heterozygosity at the 9 CODIS short tandem repeats (STR) loci including D3S1358, vWA, FGA, D8S1179, D21S11, D18S51, D5S818, D13S317 and D7S820 is associated with the risk of atherosclerotic cerebral infarction (CI). The DNA samples were collected from patients with CI (n = 72) and people over the age of 90 years without CI (n = 59). Alleles of the STR loci were...
