Rs2200733 and rs10033464 on chromosome 4q25 confer risk of cardioembolic stroke: an updated meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: A recent genome-wide association study elucidated that 4q25 was implicated in ischemic stroke, but subsequent studies showed inconsistent results. In order to get coincident conclusion, we investigated two SNPs (rs2200733, rs10033464) on chromosome 4q25 in 1,388 stroke patients and 1,629 controls from Chinese Han population and then performed a meta-analysis. Although we failed to detect any association between 4q25 and stroke in our case-control study, meta-analysis revealed that rs2200733 showed association with overall stroke (OR 1.18, 95 % CI 1.08-1.27), but not for rs10033464. Subsequently subgroup analysis indicated that both rs2200733 and rs10033464 conferred increased risk for cardioembolic stroke (CE stroke) (for rs2200733, OR 1.38, 95 % CI 1.26-1.51; for rs10033464, OR 1.14, 95 % CI 1.02-1.26), while rs2200733 was marginal associated with non-CE stroke (OR 1.09, 95 % CI 1.02-1.16). our results demonstrated that two SNPs (rs2200733 and rs1003346) on chromosome 4q25 were limited to the stroke of cardioembolic etiology. To confirm this conclusion, well-designed studies with larger sample size involving case-control populations with homogeneous ancestry warrant to be conducted in the future.

Project description:Background and Purpose- Classification of stroke as cardioembolic in etiology can be challenging, particularly since the predominant cause, atrial fibrillation (AF), may not be present at the time of stroke. Efficient tools that discriminate cardioembolic from noncardioembolic strokes may improve care as anticoagulation is frequently indicated after cardioembolism. We sought to assess and quantify the discriminative power of AF risk as a classifier for cardioembolism in a real-world population of patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods- We performed a cross-sectional analysis of a multi-institutional sample of patients with acute ischemic stroke. We systematically adjudicated stroke subtype and examined associations between AF risk using CHA2DS2-VASc, Cohorts for Heart and Aging Research in Genomic Epidemiology-AF score, and the recently developed Electronic Health Record-Based AF score, and cardioembolic stroke using logistic regression. We compared the ability of AF risk to discriminate cardioembolism by calculating C statistics and sensitivity/specificity cutoffs for cardioembolic stroke. Results- Of 1431 individuals with ischemic stroke (age, 65±15; 40% women), 323 (22.6%) had cardioembolism. AF risk was significantly associated with cardioembolism (CHA2DS2-VASc: odds ratio [OR] per SD, 1.69 [95% CI, 1.49-1.93]; Cohorts for Heart and Aging Research in Genomic Epidemiology-AF score: OR, 2.22 [95% CI, 1.90-2.60]; electronic Health Record-Based AF: OR, 2.55 [95% CI, 2.16-3.04]). Discrimination was greater for Cohorts for Heart and Aging Research in Genomic Epidemiology-AF score (C index, 0.695 [95% CI, 0.663-0.726]) and Electronic Health Record-Based AF score (0.713 [95% CI, 0.681-0.744]) versus CHA2DS2-VASc (C index, 0.651 [95% CI, 0.619-0.683]). Examination of AF scores across a range of thresholds indicated that AF risk may facilitate identification of individuals at low likelihood of cardioembolism (eg, negative likelihood ratios for Electronic Health Record-Based AF score ranged 0.31-0.10 at sensitivity thresholds 0.90-0.99). Conclusions- AF risk scores associate with cardioembolic stroke and exhibit moderate discrimination. Utilization of AF risk scores at the time of stroke may be most useful for identifying individuals at low probability of cardioembolism. Future analyses are warranted to assess whether stroke subtype classification can be enhanced to improve outcomes in undifferentiated stroke.
