Meta-analysis comparing the frequency of carotid artery stenosis in patients with atrial fibrillation and vice versa
Atrial fibrillation (AF) and carotid stenosis (CS) can coexist and this association has been
reported to result in a higher risk of stroke than attributed to either condition alone. Here we …
