Author's reply to Atrial fibrillation patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Do we need new stroke risk stratification?
We thank Dr. Joung and colleagues for their interests in our work.1 In our study, patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) had a higher risk of stroke than NVAF patients without HCM in all generations and all CHA2DS2-VASc score groups. As shown in the study of Jung et al.,2 the stroke risk in NVAF with HCM without any other stroke risk factor was greater than that in NVAF with a CHA2DS2-VASc score of 2. We agree with their results, and all NVAF patients with HCM should receive anticoagulation.

Stroke and Bleeding Risk Assessment in Atrial Fibrillation: Where Are We Now?
Korean Circ J. 2021 Jun 1. doi: 10.4070/kcj.2021.0170. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMost important international guidelines recommend the use of CHA₂DS₂-VASc and HAS-BLED scores for stroke and bleeding risk assessments in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients, respectively. The 2020 AF guidelines of European Society of Cardiology have revised the definition of "C: congestive heart failure (HF)" component, and now patients with either HF with reduced ejection fraction or preserved ejection fraction should be assigned 1 point. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was also included. Besides, the revised "V: vascular diseases" compone...
