Plasma apolipoprotein E and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 levels in young people with HIV and ischemic stroke in Lusaka, Zambia
The results suggest that lower plasma ApoE levels are independently associated with non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke in young PWH. Additional studies with larger sample sizes are needed to further explore the contribution of these inflammatory markers in young-onset HIV-associated stroke.
