Description
Cherie Ong and six co-authors link a fat carrying blood protein to stroke at a young age. The protein is a known heart risk, but its role in young stroke was murky. They match young stroke patients with healthy peers of like age, sex, and race.
Stroke patients had far higher levels and far more high cases than peers. High levels near tripled the odds of stroke, and the link held after checks for blood pressure, sugar illness, smoke, and weight. The team urges more study of screens and drugs aimed at this protein for young stroke.
