Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: A deletion (D)/insertion (I) polymorphism in the angiotensin-converting enzyme gene has been associated with myocardial infarction. Its relations to both stroke and atheroma remain uncertain. We examined its role as a risk factor in patients with cerebrovascular disease and its relation to carotid atheroma. METHODS: One hundred one patients with symptomatic carotid artery territory...
