The relationship between angiotensin converting enzyme gene polimorphism and lacunar infarction

Abstract

Background: To evaluate the relationship between polymorphisms of the angiotensin converting enzyme ACE gene and cerebral lacunar infarction.Methods: We included 23 patients with cerebral lacunar infarct confirmed with computerized tomography CT , and 26 controls with normal CT scans. We considered age, sex, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, cardiac disease, hyperlipidemia and smoking as risk factors. Insertions or deletions I/D in the ACE gene were detected using polymerase chain reaction PCR .Results: The average incidence of hyperlipidemia and mean age were higher in the lacunar infarct group p
