Comparison of the CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASc and R2CHADS2 Scores in Japanese Patients with Non-valvular Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Not Receiving Anticoagulation Therapy
Objective It remains unclear whether the CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASc, or R2CHADS2 score is the most useful for the risk stratification of ischemic stroke/systemic thromboembolism (IS/SE) in Japanese patients with paroxysmal non-valvular atrial fibrillation (PNVAF). Methods We investigated the incidence of IS/SE on the basis of the CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASc, and R2CHADS2 scores in 332 consecutive PNVAF pati...
متن کاملFluvastatin therapy could not decrease progression of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in non-valvular disease patients
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate whether fluvastatin therapy could decrease the probability of atrial fibrillation (AF) progression from paroxysmal AF to permanent AF and decrease the recurrence frequency of AF. METHODS Analyses were performed using two-tailed Student's t test or Mann-Whitney U tests. Categorical variables were compared with the χ2 statistics or Fisher's exact test. Pat...
متن کاملIntracranial hemorrhage in patients with atrial fibrillation receiving anticoagulation therapy.
We investigated the frequency and characteristics of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), the factors associated with the risk of ICH, and outcomes post-ICH overall and by randomized treatment. We identified patients with ICH from the overall trial population enrolled in the Apixaban for Reduction in Stroke and Other Thromboembolic Events in Atrial Fibrillation trial who received ≥1 dose of the study...
متن کاملComparison of Prolonged Atrial Electromechanical Delays with Different Definitions in the Discrimination of Patients with Non-Valvular Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Previous studies have evaluated atrial electromechanical delays (AEMDs) with a number of different definitions to discriminate patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) from controls without PAF. However, their discriminative values for PAF have not previously been directly compared. SUBJECTS AND METHODS A total of 65 PAF patients and 130 control subjects ma...
متن کاملComparison between CHA2DS2-VASc and the new R2CHADS2 and ATRIA scores at predicting thromboembolic event in non-anticoagulated and anticoagulated patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.
BACKGROUND Accurate risk stratification is considered the first and most important step in the management of patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). We compared the performance of the widely used CHA2DS2-VASc and the recently developed R2CHADS2 and ATRIA scores, for predicting thromboembolic (TE) event in either non-anticoagulated or anticoagulated patients with NVAF. METHODS T...
