Plasma Klotho concentrations predict functional outcome at three months after acute ischemic stroke patients.

CONCLUSIONS: Increased plasma Klotho concentrations were associated with good functional outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke. We attribute these associations to the pleiotropic effects of Klotho in stroke and vascular diseases. Key message Increased plasma Klotho concentrations were associated with good functional outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke. PMID: 31070492 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
