Statistics: Results are from logistic regression analyses adjusted for age, sex and BMI. Interaction effects on a multiplicative scale (ORint) per one minor allele increase assuming additive genetic model are shown. ORint = 1 means no interaction on a multiplicative scale.

Notes: In the subgroup analyses of valve disease and cardiomyopathy, controls did not have any valvular disease or cardiomyopathy, respectively.

Abbreviations: CVD, cerebrovascular disease; TIA, transient ischemic attack.
