Blood Type Linked to Higher Risk for Early-Onset Stroke
Individuals with type A blood have a 16% higher risk for early-onset stroke (EOS) than those with other blood types, new research shows.
Conversely, results from a meta-analysis of nearly 17,000 cases of ischemic stroke in adults younger than 60 years showed that having type O blood reduced the risk for EOS by 12%.
In addition, the associations with risk were significantly stronger in EOS than in those with late-onset stroke (LOS), pointing to a stronger role for prothrombotic factors in younger patients, the researchers note.
“What this is telling us is that maybe what makes you susceptible to stroke as a young adult is the blood type, which is really giving you a much higher risk of clotting and stroke compared to later onset,” co-investigator Braxton Mitchell, PhD, professor of medicine and epidemiology and public health at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, told Medscape Medical News.
The findings were published online August 31 in Neurology.
