Risk of Silent Cerebral Infarctions Doubled in Atrial Fibrillation房颤患者隐性脑梗的风险增加一倍以上

A systematic review and meta-analysis revealed that atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with more than a 2-fold increase in the odds for silent cerebral infarctions (SCI). CT and MRI studies were combined in 4,407 patients (505 with AF and 3,902 without), 230 AF patients (45.54%) and 610 patients without AF (15.63%) had SCIs. The overall prevalence of SCI lesions on MRI and CT among patients with AF was 40% and 22%, respectively. AF was associated with SCIs in patients with no history of symptomatic stroke independent of AF type (paroxysmal vs. persistent). AF patients have a four- to five-fold increased risk for clinically evident stroke, and they are also at risk for larger brain infarctions and worse outcomes following stroke, compared with the general population. AF may be associated with a 40% increase in the risk for cognitive impairment, SCI may be one of the mechanisms. The benefit of anticoagulant therapy for the prevention of symptomatic stroke in AF patients is well documented, but not for SCI.
