Hyperhomocysteinemia – An Independent Risk Factor in a Young Male with Cryptogenic Stroke

Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Biosciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 10

Abstract

Hyperhomocysteinemia has been shown to have increase role in stoke but it has not been proven to be an independent risk factor in cryptogenic stroke. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate whether hyperhomocysteinemia can be an independent risk factor for development of stoke in young adults. We are proposing to establish plasma homocysteine and Vitamin B12 assay as routine tests for the evaluation of cryptogenic stroke in young adults as they can be independent biomarkers for their diagnosis.
