Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have implicated that two at-risk haplotypes (HapA and HapB) of gene-encoding 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein (ALOX5AP) were significantly associated with stroke. The aim of this study was to explore the association between haplotypes of ALOX5AP gene and risk for ischemic stroke (IS) in Chinese Han population. A total of 492 patients with IS and 490 matched control subjects were recruited. Six...
