Description
Summary:Stroke is one of the serious threats to human health, with high incidence, morbidity and mortality. Studies have shown that genes play an important role in the pathogenesis of stroke. Atherosclerosis, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia and heart disease are risk factors for stroke, and are associated with inheritance. Stroke susceptibility gene is one of the hotspots at home and abroad. This article reviews the progress of susceptibility genes in large artery atherosclerotic ischemic stroke.
