Lower dementia risk with anticoagulation and ablation in patients with atrial fibrillation
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common cardiac arrhythmia in the elderly population, has been associated with an impairment of cognitive function and an increased risk of dementia. Even though there does not appear to be solid evidence that any specific treatment prevents or delays AF-as...
