Abstract
Our meta-analysis strongly suggested that the AGT M235T and ACE I/D polymorphisms significantly contribute to the risk of ischemic stroke in Han Chinese population. Also, the stratified analysis showed that the effects of these two polymorphisms differ by the geographic region. Further studies with more specific common information and large sample size are needed to understand the genetic mechanism of ischemic stroke.
