Safety and effectiveness of rivaroxaban for prevention of stroke in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation: analysis of routine clinical data from four countries

The safety profile of rivaroxaban for NVAF in routine practice is consistent with findings from randomized controlled trials and other studies.PMID:36795067 | DOI:10.1080/14740338.2023.2181334
