Peripheral Blood Leukocyte Expression of lncRNA MIAT and Its Diagnostic and Prognostic Value in Ischemic Stroke

Ischemic stroke (IS) is an extremely heterogeneous disease with variable pathogenesis. Due to the lack of early diagnostic markers, the mortality rate of IS remains high. Cumulative evidence shows that long noncoding RNAs among noncoding RNAs play important roles in cardiovascular diseases. In the present study, we focused on the expression pattern of myocardial infarction –associated transcript (MIAT) and its clinical significance in IS.
