Risk of Stroke vs. Intracerebral Hemorrhage in Patients with Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials Comparing Dual vs. Triple Antithrombotic Therapy
About 15% of patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation might require percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) with stent placement to treat obstructive coronary artery disease. Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) and P2Y12 antagonist is recommended after PCI. Patients requiring DAPT also require treatment with oral anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation. We conducted a meta-analysis to identify the antithrombotic regimen associated with the lowest rate of bleeding and thromboembolic events in non-valvular atrial fibrillation after PCI.

Artificial Intelligence-Enabled ECG to Identify Silent Atrial Fibrillation in Embolic Stroke of Unknown Source
Embolic strokes of unknown source (ESUS)1 are a common problem in clinical practice. While their prevalence varies across series, ESUS constitute up to one-third of all strokes after a complete in-hospital evaluation.2,3 Cardiac embolism from undiagnosed paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) is often suspected in these cases and prolonged ambulatory cardiac rhythm monitoring is consequently often pursued after hospital discharge.4,5

Association of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy and Atrial Fibrillation with Hemorrhagic Evolution of Small Vessel Disease
Cerebral small vessel disease1 affects the perforating arterioles located deep in the brain, particularly at the level of internal capsule, thalamus, basal ganglia, corona radiata and brainstem. The disease may manifest acutely in ischemic form, due to the occlusion of one or more small vessels (lacunar stroke), or in hemorrhagic form ( “typical” deep intracerebral hemorrhage, which differs from the less frequent lobar, cortical, location, that is usually due to the rupture of vascular structures of larger size and to different causes compared to small vessel disease).

Peri-device leakage not CHA2DS2-VASc is associated with post-left atrial appendage closure cardiovascular event
In patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF), the left atrial appendage occluder (LAAO) is an alternative treatment for stroke prevention. However, thromboembolic event still occur, and the predictors are unknown.

Embolic stroke and atrioesophageal fistula as complications of atrial ablation
We present a case of a patient with cardioembolic cerebral infarcts and sepsis secondary to an atrioesophageal fistula, which likely developed after an atrial ablation procedure for atrial fibrillation.

A Case of Superficial Hemisensory Dysfunction due to Operculo-insular Infarction: Radiological Depiction of Thalamocortical Projections to the Secondary Somatosensory Cortex
A 64-year-old obese man developed hypesthesia in the left arm and leg. Neurological examination revealed decreased senses of pain, touch, and temperature in the left face, arm, trunk, and leg. Remaining functions were normal. Electrocardiogram showed atrial fibrillation. Somatosensory-evoked potentials using the stimulation in the median nerve were normal on both sides. Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed acute infarction in the right parietal operculum and insula. There were no pathognomonic lesions in the postcentral gyrus, the thalamus, or the brain stem. Cardioembolic operculo-insular infarction was diagnosed. Di...

Rivaroxaban versus Warfarin in Japanese Patients with Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation in Relation to the CHADS2 Score: A Subgroup Analysis of the J-ROCKET AF Trial
Conclusion: This subanalysis indicated that the safety and efficacy of rivaroxaban compared with warfarin were similar, regardless of CHADS2 score.

Cerebral Microbleeds and Asymptomatic Cerebral Infarctions in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation
Conclusions: Patients with AF had a significantly higher prevalence of CMBs. The presence of CMBs in the baseline MRI may predict the consequent onset of an ACI and increase in CMBs in patients with AF.

Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants Do Not Increase Cerebral Microbleeds
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a cardiac arrhythmia that frequently induces ischemic strokes. Nowadays, non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) have come into widespread use for cardiogenic embolism prevention in place of warfarin. Recently, cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) have been noticed for their potential implication in cerebral small vessel disease. We hypothesized that NOACs do not have an unfavorable influence over cerebral small vessels and investigated whether NOACs increase CMBs in AF patients in a prospective manner.

Paradoxical Brain Emboli Related to Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia after Catheter Ablation
Thromboembolism associated with catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation has been considered to be derived from catheters, ablation sites, or a left atrial appendage. Paradoxical brain embolism due to iatrogenic shunt after catheter ablation has yet to be described.
