On the other hand, several nutrients correlated with dietary folate: vitamin B2, potassium, iron, vitamin A of plant origin, calcium were also associated with IS risk in an inverse linear manner with HR ranging from 1.5 to 1.9 for the first quartile.\n          <\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:bold>\n              <jats:italic>Conclusions\u2014<\/jats:italic>\n            <\/jats:bold>\n            The protective association of dietary folate on IS risk may be in part through that of other correlated nutrients or other dietary components.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1161\/strokeaha.108.524934","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,11,7]],"date-time":"2008-11-07T02:46:32Z","timestamp":1226025992000},"page":"3152-3158","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1161\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":78,"title":["Is Ischemic Stroke Risk Related to Folate Status or Other Nutrients Correlated With Folate Intake?"],"prefix":"10.1161","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"Lu-Chen","family":"Weng","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Institute of Biomedical Sciences (L.-C.W., W.-T.Y., S.-Y.C., W.-H.P.), Academia Sinica;
