Abstract excerpt

Stroke is one of the most common causes of disability and lack of independence in activities of daily living in adults. One of the most important factors predisposing to stroke, besides hypertension and atrial fibrillation, is carotid atherosclerosis. Rupture of unstable plaque with formation of a platelet plug is the cause of about 20-25% of ischemic strokes. Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is an important regulator of...
