Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Lymphotoxin-Alpha (LTA) is a mediator of inflammation which may be associated with the risk of ischemic stroke (IS). Polymorphisms (-252A/G and -804C/A) in the LTA gene have been found to be associated with IS with contradictory results. The present meta-analysis aimed to provide a comprehensive account of the association of (-252A/G and -804C/A) gene polymorphisms of LTA gene with susceptibility to IS....
