FGBGene − 148C>T Polymorphism Is Associated with Increased Risk of Ischemic Stroke in a Chinese Population: A Meta-Analysis Based on 18 Case–Control Studies

Abstract: The results of our meta-analysis suggested that the-148C>T polymorphism in the FGB gene is a susceptibility marker of ischemic stroke.

“…Our results showed a tendency of a higher frequency of the β-fibrinogen CT genotype (c.-148C>T SNP) in patients with total and arterial thrombosis than in non BCR - ABL MPN patients who did not experience vascular events. The effect of this SNP was evaluated in a large population of Chinese patients with ischemic stroke and cerebral infarction, but not in non BCR - ABL MPNs [ 27 , 28 ]. There was also evidence that β-fibrinogen c.-148C>T SNP is functional and associated with elevated plasma fibrinogen levels [ 29 ].…”
