Atrial fibrillation (AF) significantly contributes to acute ischaemic stroke (AIS), yet its precise
influence on clinical outcomes post-intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and post-endovascular …

Female sex has been suggested as a risk modifier for stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation
(AF) with comorbid prevalent stroke risk factors. Management has evolved over time towards …

The world's population is ageing, with the number of those over 60 years expected to
represent a fifth of the total population by 2050. Increases in chronic long-term health …

Background This study aimed to evaluate racial differences in the incidence of stroke by
conducting an ecological epidemiological study using UK Biobank and Korean nationwide …

Abstract Background and Aims Female sex has been linked with higher risk of ischaemic
stroke (IS) in atrial fibrillation (AF), but no prior study has examined temporal trends in the IS …

Background: Utilization of oral anticoagulants for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) prevention in
patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) increased in the United States over the last decade …

Introduction: Although ischemic stroke incidence has decreased in Sweden over the past
decade, trends in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) incidence are less well …
