Hunting for hidden triggers of bleeding strokes
NCT ID NCT00682695
First seen Jul 02, 2026 ยท Last updated Jul 02, 2026
Summary
This study aims to uncover genetic and environmental risk factors for hemorrhagic stroke, a type of stroke caused by bleeding in the brain. Researchers will analyze DNA, RNA, and blood samples from 1,000 adults who have had such a stroke, comparing them to healthy controls. By identifying variations in specific genes and other factors, they hope to better understand why these strokes happen.
