This is the 3rd video in a series on preventing the most common cause of disability: Stroke. It's the 2nd video on the stroke gene. It shows there are now 31 known locations, most in the 4 q25 regions (q25 region of the 4th chromosome). They have a varying impacts, mostly on the muscle of the heart. The muscle of the heart can evolve into the conduction system of the heart. These hyper-evolving cells can form extra pathways, creating a short circuit phenomenon in the conduction system, leading to atrial fibrillation. Atrial fibrillation causes a 5x increase in stroke risk. & it's by far the most common cardiac dysrhythmia. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5704994/
