In the Nor-COAST study (Norwegian Cognitive Impairment After Stroke), levels of serum ILs, terminal C5b-9 complement complex (TCC), TNF, monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP-1), and macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP) were measured at baseline, 3, and 18 months after ischemic stroke (Sandvig et al., 2023; Thingstad et al., 2018). The gene discussed is TNF; the disease is ischemic stroke.
