Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between polymorphism of leukotriene A4 hydrolase (LTA4H) gene among ischemic stroke patients and the related subtypes in the discordant sib pairs. METHODS: Families including ischemic stroke patients and their siblings were recruited. Four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of LTA4H as rs2072512, rs2540489, rs2540500 and rs6538697 were selected. Generalized estimating...
