Epidemiological Study of Fabry Disease in Taiwan Young Stroke Patients
This is a cross-sectional, population-based study. No randomization procedure will be executed in this study. Approximately 1000 subjects over a 36-month period. The aim of this screening study is to identify the Fabry disease as the cause in patients with young stroke.
To measure the level of α-Gal A activity, male subjects will initially provide a DBS sample and female subjects will start with a test by whole blood sample.
The prevalence of Fabry disease among patients with young stroke will be estimated by a confirmative diagnosis in gene testing.
