Summary: | The results of γ-glutamyl carboxylase gene rs2592551 polymorphism determining in 170 patients with ischemic atherothrombotic stroke and 124 subjects without acute cerebrovascular disease (control group) have been evaluated. Obtained results revealed that rs2592551 polymorphism was related to ischemic stroke in Ukrainian population. The risk for this disease in patients with T/T genotype was higher than in major C-allele carriers (odds ratio (OR) = 3.117; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.016-9.566; P = 0.047). After dividing patients into subgroups, formed by the presence of certain risk factors for atherosclerosis, similar association has been established for women and non-smokers. At the same time, the heterozygous genotype (C/T) in females had significantly protective effect against ischemic stroke development when compared to C/C and T/T genotypes (OR = 0.460; 95% CI 0.213-0.994; P = 0.048). Statistical significance of these results persisted even after adjustment for age, body mass index, smoking and hypertension. |
