Abstract excerpt
Ischemic stroke represents a significant societal burden across the globe. Rare high penetrant monogenic variants and less pathogenic common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been described as being associated with risk of diseases. Genetic studies in Saudi Arabian patients offer a greater opportunity to detect rare high penetrant mutations enriched in these consanguineous populations. We performed...
