Non-cardioembolic risk factors in atrial fibrillation-associated ischemic stroke.
INTRODUCTION:Cardioembolic (CE) risks is usually considered as the main mechanism of ischemic stroke in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) patients. However, a substantial number of ischemic strokes in NVAF patients are related to non-CE mechanisms. The aim of this study was to investigate the...
