In the meantime, replication of significant associations detected in the candidate gene part of the study with our genomewide approach should provide us with practical estimates for the likely density of SNP markers needed for successful LD mapping.
Defining the molecular basis for the inherited component to ischemic stroke risk will require converging lines of evidence from various methodologies, including genomewide screens [ 24 ] and candidate gene association studies.
The reason is simply that this approach has only recently become possible with the advent of high throughput SNP genotyping and we are not currently aware of any published studies that have used genomewide association for identification of susceptibility loci of complex traits.
Identifying genes for polygenic ischemic stroke has been a difficult task and most human studies have employed a candidate gene approach [ 5 ] although at least one genomewide linkage scan in affected sibling pairs is on the way [ 22 ] . We propose to use a combination of a candidate gene association study and genomewide association scan in children with Hb SS at high (230 cases) or low (400 controls) risk for cerebrovascular disease as determined by their TCD velocity.
References for the polymorphisms listed in Table 1are provided in the additional file 1. The genomewide screen for a large number of SNP markers may uncover the association of novel polymorphisms with cerebrovascular disease and stroke in sickle cell disease.
