Predictive Value of Left Atrial and Ventricular Strain for the Detection of Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With Cryptogenic Stroke

Predictive Value of Left Atrial and Ventricular Strain for the Detection of Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With Cryptogenic Stroke

Background and AimsCryptogenic stroke (CS) is associated with a high rate of recurrences and adverse outcomes at long-term follow-up, especially due to its unknown etiology that often leads to ineffective secondary prevention. Asymptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF) could play an important pathophysio...
