Findings from University Hospital Broaden Understanding of Stroke (Mendelian Randomization Studies In Stroke Exploration of Risk Factors and Drug Targets With Human Genetic Data)

摘要

2021 SEP 17 (NewsRx) - By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Disease Prevention Daily - Fresh data on Cerebrovascular Diseases and Conditions - Stroke are presented in a new report. According to news reporting originating from Munich, Germany, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "Elucidating the causes of stroke is key to developing effective preventive strategies. The Mendelian randomization approach leverages genetic variants related to an exposure of interest to investigate the effects of varying that exposure on disease risk." Funders for this research include German Research Foundation (DFG), Onassis Foundation, Deutscher Akademischer Austausch Dienst (DAAD), Vascular Dementia Research Foundation, British Heart Foundation Centre of Research Excellence at Imperial College London.
