Atrial Fibrillation Genetic Risk Differentiates Cardioembolic Stroke from other Stroke Subtypes
2017-12-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Objective</h4> We sought to assess whether genetic risk factors for atrial fibrillation can explain cardioembolic stroke risk. <h4>Methods</h4> We evaluated genetic correlations between a prior genetic study of AF and AF in the presence of cardioembolic stroke using genome-wide genotypes from the Stroke Genetics Network (N = 3,190 AF cases, 3,000 cardioembolic stroke cases, and 28,026 referents). We tested w...
