Background and Purpose: Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is a novel
age-related risk factor for cardiovascular disease–related morbidity and mortality. The
association of CHIP with risk of incident ischemic stroke was reported previously in an
exploratory analysis including a small number of incident stroke cases without replication
and lack of stroke subphenotyping. The purpose of this study was to discover whether CHIP
is a risk factor for ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke. Methods: We utilized plasma genome …
