, TCD > 200 cm/sec) and there were 5 pairs among 130 randomized patients suggesting that other genetic factors may in part determine propensity for stroke (RJ Adams, unpublished observations).
Loglinear models will be employed for this [ 19 ] . Suppose, for example, that the data from two genes are combined with TCD status to form a 2 × 2 × 2 table.
Results are presented in table 2. On the assumption that the goal of the study is to identify mutant alleles that occur with increased frequency in patients with high TCD, the table is limited to cases in which p 1 > p 2 . To save space, the table is further limited to entries that just span the range of differences, p 1 - p 2 , that can be detected with 80-90% power for each specified value of p 1 . Based on these power analyses we conclude that we have good power to detect realistic differences in frequencies of alleles that increase risk of cerebrovascular disease and stroke in cases as compared to controls.
The incorporation of any preventive or therapeutic measures into this program will depend not only on the findings of association of high TCD phenotype with certain SNPs but also on the results of the ongoing STOP II study, which is studying the optimal duration of transfusion in these high risk children.
The recently funded STOP-II study, to be conducted in 24 centers, will investigate the duration of stroke risk and the feasibility of discontinuing transfusion after 30 months in patients whose TCD velocities have normalized after transfusion.
