The Impact of < em > PCSK9 < /em > Gene Polymorphisms on Ischemic Stroke: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

CONCLUSIONS: This meta-analysis demonstrated that G allele variant of PCSK9 rs505151 and A allele variant of PCSK9 rs17111503 were associated with an increased risk of IS. Based on our findings, these SNPs could serve as potential targets for the diagnosis and treatment of IS. The integration of information on genetic polymorphism into IS risk prediction model may be beneficial in routine clinical practice.PMID:38538222 | DOI:10.31083/j.jin2303062
