LGALS1 and stroke disorder: In both the control and stroke groups, the serum levels of Gal-9 were significantly correlated with the Gal-1 (controls, r = 0.324, p < 0.001; patients, r = 0.339, p < 0.001) and Gal-3 levels (controls, r = 0.382, p < 0.001; patients, r = 0.215, p = 0.014), and the Gal-3 levels were correlated with the Gal-3BP levels (controls, r = 0.181, p = 0.040; patients, r = 0.180, p = 0.041).
