Endothelial nitric oxide (eNOS) gene G894T and VNTR polymorphisms are closely associated with the risk of ischemic stroke development for Asians: meta-analysis of epidemiological studies.

Abstract excerpt

Although the relationships between endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene polymorphisms (including G894T, VNTR and T786C) and risk of ischemic stroke (IS) have been extensively studied, controversial results have been reported. The aim of this study was to assess the relationships between them by using a meta-analysis. Literatures were retrieved through the following databases: Medline, Embase and Wangfang...
