In the Genotyping Recurrence Risk of Stroke (GRECOS) project, however, Fernándes-Cadenas et al. found an association of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs1800801 in the matrix carboxyglutamatic acid Gla protein (MGP) gene with first-year recurrent ischemic stroke in Spanish Caucasians [9]. The gene discussed is MGP; the disease is stroke disorder.
