Why is determining the genetic contribution important to assess in stroke patients?
a- comorbidities mask the symptoms and delay the diagnosis
b- environmental risk factors have equal contribution to the problems
c- often the person with a stroke cannot provide accurate family information
d- stroke classification and phenotype remain hetergeneous

why is determining the genetic contribution important to assess in stroke patients?

Explanation:

1.Family health history is an important tool for identifying people at increased risk for stroke because it reflects both an individual's genes and shared environmental risk factors. In a 2003 study in Utah, 86% of all early strokes occurred in just 11% of families.

2.Stroke seems to run in some families. ... Members of a family might have a genetic tendency for stroke risk factors, such as an inherited predisposition for high blood pressure (hypertension) or diabetes. The influence of a common lifestyle among family members also could contribute to familial stroke.

3.Stroke also occurs as a complication of several genetic disorders, the most common of these being sickle cell disease.

4.Genes play a role in the development of risk factors that can lead to a stroke, such as high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, and vascular conditions. An increased risk for stroke within a family may also be due to common behavioral factors, such as a sedentary lifestyle or poor eating habits. Thus, family health history is an important tool for identifying people at increased risk for stroke.
