Is there a prognostic role for C-reactive protein in ischemic stroke?
CRP levels>or = 9 mg/l, evaluated in incident ischemic stroke within 24 h, predict a higher risk of further ischemic events and mortality.
The 807TT/873AA genotype of the GPIa gene alone or in combination with risk factors had no major effect on MI, however, it appears to be associated with higher HDL-cholesterol levels in healthy subjects.
