Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The data about apolipoprotein E gene (APOE) genotype and the risk of stroke are inconsistent. The APOE genotype is expected to influence the development of carotid plaques. Our aim was to look for association between APOE genotype and carotid plaque morphology in ischemic stroke patients. METHODS AND RESULTS: Data of ischemic stroke patients was collected prospectively for 2 years. The degree...
