We used ordinal regression to study the relationship between serum B2M, cystatin C, and LCN-2 with stroke risk in 1060 participants (mean age 45.4 ± 10.8 years, 46% male) from the Shenzhen-Hong Kong United Network on Cardiovascular Disease (SHUN-CVD) study. The gene discussed is B2M; the disease is cardiovascular disorder.
