abstract = {Background: There is a reverse relationship between serum bilirubin level and incidence of stroke, heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) can catalyze heme into bilirubin, it is unknown the association of HO-1 level with risk of stroke.
Methods: Sixty patients with stroke and fifty patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) were recruited. Serum level of HO-1, total and direct bilirubin, alanine transaminase, live function, lipid profile and infection status of patients were measured.
Results: Significant differences were found between two groups in terms of serum levels of HO-1 (163.6±58.7 vs. 141.2±49.7, P=0.032), total bilirubin (10.1±4.6 vs. 15.8±2.7, P},
