Abstract

The risk of first ischemic stroke was significantly higher in hypertensive patients with low levels of both folate and B<sub>12</sub>. Effect of folic acid treatment was greatest in patients with low folate and B<sub>12</sub> with the CC genotype, and with high folate and B<sub>12</sub> with the TT genotype.
