Abstract excerpt
Arterial ischemic stroke (AIS) in young adults is less common in older adults, but the underlying pathogenesis and risk factors are more multi-faceted. The role of inherited thrombophilia such as 5, 10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene polymorphism, (C677T and A1298C), factor V of Leiden (FVL) polymorphism, and the prothrombin G20210A mutations remains unclear. This study aims to evaluate the role...
