Stroke Clinical Trial
Official title:
Siblings With Ischemic Stroke Study
The purpose of this study is to find the genes that increase the risk of developing an ischemic stroke using DNA samples collected from concordant (stroke-affected) sibling pairs.
Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the United States and a leading cause of
acquired disability in adults. Each year, about 700,000 people experience stroke in the
country. Ischemic stroke, which constitutes about 80 percent of all strokes, is a complex
genetic disorder--the result of interactions between multiple genes and multiple
environmental exposures. Genes affecting cholesterol, blood pressure, clotting, and other
factors may increase the risk of ischemic stroke.
In this clinical study, investigators are studying groups of siblings in which at least two
of the siblings have had an ischemic stroke. The goal of this multi-center study is to find
the genes that increase the risk of developing an ischemic stroke.
To accomplish the aims of the study, researchers are using DNA samples collected from
concordant (stroke-affected) sibling pairs to determine if there are regions in the human
genome associated with ischemic stroke or that may harbor stroke susceptibility genes.
Two teaspoons of blood will be collected from each participant and submitted for genetic
analysis. Understanding the genetic predisposition to stroke could have major benefits for
public health.
