Stroke type and severity in patients with subclinical atrial fibrillation: An analysis from the Asymptomatic Atrial Fibrillation and Stroke Evaluation in Pacemaker Patients and the Atrial Fibrillation Reduction Atrial Pacing Trial (ASSERT)
Conclusions In patients with SCAF and stroke, SCAF seems probably causal in many cases; however, in more than 40%, it seems to be acting only as a risk marker.

Genome-wide and candidate gene approaches of clopidogrel efficacy using pharmacodynamic and clinical endpoints - Rationale and design of the International Clopidogrel Pharmacogenomics Consortium (ICPC)
Conclusion The ICPC aims to identify new loci influencing clopidogrel efficacy by using state-of-the-art genetic techniques in a large cohort of clopidogrel-treated patients in order to better understand the genetic basis of on-treatment response variability.
