Article Synopsis
- - The study investigated the prevalence, risk factors, and cognitive impact of cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) in an urban Indian population aged 50 and above, revealing a prevalence rate of 14.42%.
- - It identified that older age, a history of stroke, hypertension, and smoking significantly increased the risk of developing CMBs, especially multiple microbleeds.
- - The presence of multiple CMBs was linked to poorer performance in memory and executive function, indicating a need for further research to understand their implications on cognition.
Objective: Studies on association between methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene (MTHFR) C677T gene polymorphism and ischemic stroke have shown conflicting results. We have conducted a meta-analysis to determine the precise association of the C677T polymorphism of MTHFR gene with risk of ischemic stroke.
Materials And Methods: We searched electronic databases Medline, EMBASE, and Google Scholar (last search dated till August 2014).
