Neuropsychometric changes in patients after carotid endarterectomy.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:It has been suggested that the interleukin-1A (IL-1A) allele 2 is a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Because cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related hemorrhage (CAAH) often coexists with AD, we examined the IL-1A polymorphism in CAAH. METHODS:In a case-control study, patients with pathologi...
