OBJECTIVE To study a role of MTHFR mutations and their associations with the disturbances of basic parameters of the folate cycle in the development of ischemic stroke (IS). METHODS Fifty-one post-stroke patients, 26 women and 25 men, aged from 29 to 87 years, were included in the study. The control

Serum folate and risk for ischemic stroke. First National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey epidemiologic follow-up study.

The associations of dietary folate, vitamin B(6), vitamin B(12), and methionine intakes with risk of stroke subtypes were examined among 26,556 male Finnish smokers, aged 50-69 years, enrolled in the Alpha-Tocopherol, Beta-Carotene Cancer Prevention Study. Dietary intake was assessed at baseline by

Folate, vitamin B6, and B12 intakes in relation to risk of stroke among men.

OBJECTIVE It is uncertain what impact increasing voluntary folate fortification may be having on the statistical power of randomized trials testing the homocysteine hypothesis of atherothrombosis. The objective of this study was to determine whether there has been a change in folate status between

Homocysteine, vitamin B12 and folate levels in Iranian patients with ischemic stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Homocysteine, folate, and some group B vitamins have been proposed as a cause of Cerebro-Vascular Accidents (CVA). We conducted a case-control study to compare the plasma levels of folate, vitamin B12 and homocysteine in Iranian subjects with and without cerebro-vascular

Functionality of patients with post-stroke hemiplegia: Does serum folate level matter?

OBJECTIVE To investigate serum levels of folate, B12, and total homocysteine (tHcy) in elderly post-stroke patients, and the possible correlations with radiological markers of neuropathology. METHODS Cross-sectional study. METHODS Department of Neurology, Cardinal Tien Hospital. METHODS Eighty-nine

Folate intake and risk of stroke among women.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Few studies have examined the association between folate intake and risk of stroke, although numerous studies have suggested that high levels of homocysteine are positively related to stroke. We aim to assess the relation between folate intake and stroke incidence among women participating

BACKGROUND The S-adenosylmethionine synthetase type 1 (MAT1A) gene encodes a key enzyme in one-carbon nutrient metabolism. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the association of MAT1A variants with homocysteine, DNA damage, and cardiovascular disease (CVD). METHODS Eight variants of MAT1A were

Young stroke and basal plasma and post-methionine load homocysteine and cysteine levels 1 year after the acute event: do plasma folates make the difference?

Only registered users can translate articles

We conducted a case-control study to evaluate the relationship between ischemic stroke in young adults (<45 years of age) and plasma homocysteine (Hcy), plasma folate and vitamin B(12), after a methionine load. We studied 42 patients with a history of ischemic stroke and 29 controls with a negative
