Risk factors for thromboembolic and bleeding events in anticoagulated patients with atrial fibrillation: the prospective, multicentre observational PREvention oF thromboembolic events - European Registry in Atrial Fibrillation (PREFER in AF) by Raffaele De Caterina, Kurt Huber, Richard Schilling, Miklos Rohla, Thomas W Weiss, Ladislav Pecen, Giuseppe Patti, Jolanta M Siller-Matula, Renate B Schnabel, Dipak Kotecha, Markus Lucerna, Paulus Kirchhof

“…Objectives We identified factors associated with thromboembolic and bleeding events in two contemporary cohorts of anticoagulated patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), treated with either vitamin K antagonists (VKA) or non-VKA oral anticoagulants (NOACs).Design Prospective, multicentre observational study.Setting 461 centres in seven European countries.Participants 5310 patients receiving a VKA (PREvention oF thromboembolic events - European Registry in Atrial Fibrillation (PREFER in AF), derivation cohort) and 3156 patients receiving a NOAC (PREFER in AF Prolongation, validation cohort) for stroke prevention in AF.Outcome measures Risk factors for thromboembolic events (ischaemic stroke, systemic embolism) and major bleeding (gastrointestinal bleeding, intracerebral haemorrhage and other life-threatening bleeding).Results The mean age of patients enrolled in the PREFER in AF registry was 72±10 years, 40% were female and the mean CHA2DS2-VASc Score was 3.5±1.7. …”

Functional feature extraction and validation from twelve-lead electrocardiograms to identify atrial fibrillation by Wei Yang, Rajat Deo, Wensheng Guo

“…Abstract Background Deep learning methods on standard, 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECG) have resulted in the ability to identify individuals at high-risk for the development of atrial fibrillation. However, the process remains a “black box” and does not help clinicians in understanding the electrocardiographic changes at an individual level. we propose a nonparametric feature extraction approach to identify features that are associated with the development of atrial fibrillation (AF). …”
