Ambient Air Pollution and Acute Ischemic Stroke—Effect Modification by Atrial Fibrillation

Ambient Air Pollution and Acute Ischemic Stroke—Effect Modification by Atrial Fibrillation

Acute ischemic strokes (AIS) are closely linked with air pollution, and there is some evidence that traditional cardiovascular risk factors may alter the relationship between air pollution and strokes. We investigated the effect of atrial fibrillation (AF) on the association of AIS with air pollutan...
