    Abstract Importance: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an established risk factor for ischaemic stroke. The introduction of continuous cardiac rhythm monitoring devices has enabled detection of brief and asymptomatic episodes of AF.
    Observations: The search yielded 727 studies, 11 of which met the inclusion criteria. Four studies suggested a strong temporal association between episodes of AF and stroke, while seven indicated a weak relationship. The conflicting nature of the studies may be attributed to inconsistencies in ischaemic stroke verification (n=5/11), event rate and power (n=6/11) and lack of controlling for anticoagulation (n=10/11), mitigating the relationship between AF episodes and stroke.
    Conclusions and relevance: The temporal relationship between AF and stroke still remains unclear due to varying study methodology, lack of control for anticoagulation and inconsistent stroke subtyping. Our review identifies limitations to the current literature and makes recommendations for future studies assessing the temporal relationship between AF episodes and cardioembolic stroke.

    Abstract Background: Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) is strongly associated with ischemic stroke. Continuous cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) can assess PAF episodes over prolonged periods. Studies that attempted to find a temporal association between PAF and ischemic stroke were inconclusive. Thus, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess this relationship.
    Aims: To assess the temporal association between AF episodes and stroke within 30 days of the arrhythmic episode. The secondary outcome is a temporal association within a 90-day period.
    Summary of review: A total of 2804 studies that discussed the temporal relationship between PAF and ischemic stroke were screened, and 7 studies were included in the meta-analysis. Amongst the 4041 patients included in these studies, there were 138 patients with device detected PAF episodes and stroke. Four studies used a 30-day window for temporality and the pooled OR showed a significant association (OR 4.11 [95% CI 1.03-16.40]). The 3 studies reporting on AF and stroke within a 90 day window did not find a significant temporal relationship (OR of 0.43 [95% CI 0.13-1.41]). Finally, the pooled result of those 7 studies did not show a significant association (OR 1.51 [95% CI 0.44 - 5.17]).
    Conclusions: This meta-analysis supports a temporal relationship between PAF and ischemic stroke within a 30-day window. Establishing this relationship is important for individualized risk prediction and targeted anticoagulation treatment.

    Abstract Background: Anticoagulants are recommended to prevent cardioembolic stroke in most patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Management errors with anticoagulation and use of aspirin instead of anticoagulants have been documented worldwide, especially with vitamin K antagonists.
    Aims: To assess the rate of anticoagulant mismanagement errors in patients admitted with ischaemic stroke and the clinical correlates with stroke outcomes in the era of non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants.
    Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of patients admitted with ischaemic stroke and history of AF to a single-centre tertiary hospital stroke unit in Melbourne, Australia, between January 2016 and June 2019. We assessed management errors as defined using European Heart Rhythm Association criteria with anticoagulation in the 2 weeks prior to the index stroke.
    Results: A total of 306 patients with AF and ischaemic stroke was included, of whom 196 (64%) had management errors. Patients with management errors were older (median age 84 vs 81 years; P = 0.002) and more often female (53% vs 38%; P = 0.02). Of those with management errors, 74 (37%) were not prescribed any anticoagulation despite increased stroke risk and absence of contraindications and 40 (20%) had anticoagulation inappropriately ceased. Mortality at 3 months was 32% in those with management errors, compared with 17% in the appropriately anticoagulated group (P = 0.005).
    Conclusions: Inappropriate management of anticoagulants is present in the majority of acute ischaemic stroke in the 2 weeks preceding the event and is linked to higher mortality. Improved anticoagulation practice has the potential to substantially reduce stroke rates in patients with AF.
