01/2005 | Methods of Information in Medicine, SchattauerA Scoring System for Ascertainment of Incident Stroke; the Risk Index Score (RISc)
Objectives: The main objective of this study was to develop and validate a computer-based statistical algorithm that could be translated into a simple scoring system in order to ascertain incident stroke cases using hospital admission medical records data. Methods: The Risk Index Score (RISc) algorithm was developed using data collected prospectively by the Brain Attack Surveillance in Corpus Christi (BASIC) project, 2000...

09/2006 | Thrombosis and Haemostasis, SchattauerFibrinogen gene haplotypes in relation to risk of coronary events and coronary and extracoronary atherosclerosis: The Rotterdam Study
Fibrin network structure has been correlated with coronary disease. Fibrinogen and (FGG and FGA) gene haplotypes (chromosome 4q28) may be associated with fibrin network structure, and thereby with rigidity of the fibrin clot and sensitivity of the fibrin clot to the fibrinolytic system...
