Is Ischemic Stroke Risk Related to Folate Status or Other Nutrients Correlated With Folate Intake?
Dr. Pan, Wen-Harn
American Stroke Association, Nov 06, 2008Folate status was inversely associated with plasma homocysteine concentration, a potential risk factor of cardiovascular disease. However, it is uncertain whether folate is causally associated with risk of ischemic stroke (IS). We aimed to examine the association between IS incidence and folate intake, biochemical folate status, and folate associated nutrients.
