Genetic contribution to white matter hyperintensity burden in early- and late-onset ischemic stroke patients

Thesis (M.A.)--Boston University === White matter hyperintensity volume (WMHV) is associated with greater risk of ischemic stroke, and discovery of genetic markers of increased WMHV may contribute to improved stroke risk prediction models, leading to novel stroke prevention strategies, especially in...
