A number of studies have examined the relationship between genetic platelet glycoprotein variants and early-onset atherothrombotic disease, particularly acute myocardial infarction. Data on the association of these genetic susceptibility markers with ischemic stroke are more limited, and their role in hemorrhagic stroke has not been previously examined.
