Hunting for hidden triggers of bleeding strokes

NCT ID NCT00682695

First seen Jul 02, 2026 · 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.
