متن کاملThe associations of stroke, transient ischemic attack, and/or stroke-related recurrent vascular events with Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2
BACKGROUND Studies on stroke and lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) have produced conflicting results. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to assess the associations of Lp-PLA2 levels (mass and activity) with recurrent vascular events in patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) and/or first ischemic stroke and with stroke in the general population. METHODS The MEDLINE, Em...
