Because these loci had prior evidence for genome-wide significance for CAD, we specifically analyzed the respective signals for IS and LAS and found evidence for association at chr12q24/SH2B3 (PIS=1.62x10-7) and ABO (PIS=2.6x10-4), as well as at HDAC9 (PLAS=2.32x10-12), 9p21 (PLAS=3.70x10-6), RAI1-PEMT-RASD1 (PLAS=2.69x10-5), EDNRA (PLAS=7.29x10-4), and CYP17A1-CNNM2-NT5C2 (PLAS=4.9x10-4). Conclusions-Our results demonstrate substantial overlap in the genetic risk of IS and particularly the LAS subtype with CAD.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:05:46 AEDT ]]> Genetic overlap between diagnostic subtypes of ischemic stroke https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27245 g=0.96, SE=0.47, P=9x10−4) and profile scores (rg=0.72; 95% confidence interval, 0.52–0.93). Between LAA and cardioembolism and SVD and cardioembolism, correlation was moderate using linear mixed models but not significantly different from zero for profile scoring. Joint meta-analysis of LAA and SVD identified strong association (P=1x10−7) for single nucleotide polymorphisms near the opioid receptor μ1 (OPRM1) gene. Conclusions: Our results suggest that LAA and SVD, which have been hitherto treated as genetically distinct, may share a substantial genetic component. Combined analyses of LAA and SVD may increase power to identify small-effect alleles influencing shared pathophysiological processes.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:29:11 AEDT ]]> Shared genetic basis for migraine and ischemic stroke: a genome-wide analysis of common variants https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:25600 -28 for the LAS polygenic score in MO) and between MO and cardioembolic stroke (CE; p 2.7 x 10-20 for the CE score in MO). Conclusions: Our findings indicate shared genetic susceptibility to migraine and IS, with a particularly strong overlap between MO and both LAS and CE pointing towards shared mechanisms. Our observations on MA are consistent with a limited role of common genetic variants in this subtype.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:28:03 AEDT ]]> Low-frequency and common genetic variation in ischemic stroke: the METASTROKE collaboration https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:25883 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:25:54 AEDT ]]>
