Does a greater burden of atrial fibrillation increase the risk of ischemic stroke in adults with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation?
A greater burden of atrial fibrillation independently increases the risk of ischemic stroke in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
A greater burden of atrial fibrillation is associated with a higher risk of ischemic stroke independent of known stroke risk factors in adults with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
