Background Prior work has shown a direct association between atrial fibrillation (AF),
cognitive decline, and dementia. AF can alter cerebral blood flow, which may lead to …

Background and Objectives Atrial fibrillation (AF) has been associated with cognitive decline
and dementia. However, the mechanisms behind these associations are not clear …

Left atrial (LA) dysfunction has been linked to cognitive impairment and cerebrovascular
dysfunction. Higher brain free-water (FW) derived from diffusion-MRI was associated with …

INTRODUCTION Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with an elevated risk of cognitive
impairment and dementia. Understanding the cognitive sequelae and brain structural …

Aims Atrial fibrillation (AF) has been associated with cognitive impairment. Additionally,
brain volume may be reduced in individuals with AF. Potential causes may include cerebral …

Abstract Background Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is a common cause of ischemic stroke (IS), and is
associated with cognitive impairment in the general population. We aimed to compare the …

Background Patients with carotid arterial disease (CD) with and without atrial fibrillation (AF)
are at risk of stroke. Patients with AF are at a higher risk of stroke and dementia. Objectives …

Background and Purpose: Data on the effect on vascular outcomes of concomitant
atherosclerotic vascular disease (ASVD) with atrial fibrillation (AF) after stroke are limited …

Background and Purpose—Evidence suggests that atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with
increased risk of cognitive decline and dementia, even in the absence of stroke. White …

Introduction The objective of our study was to investigate cross-sectional associations of
atrial fibrillation with neuroimaging measures of cerebrovascular disease and Alzheimer's …
