Lesion Network Mapping for Atrial Fibrillation Newly Detected on ECG or Cardiac Monitoring After Stroke.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Atrial fibrillation detected after stroke is a distinct clinical entity that may stem from cardiogenic-neurogenic interactions. We aimed to illuminate the lesion network mapping of atrial fibrillation newly detected on ECG or cardiac monitoring after stroke and explore the association between the central autonomic network and occurrence of atrial fibrillation.

Methods

We performed voxel-based lesion-symptom mapping, structural disconnection connectome mapping and functional disconnection connectome mapping to locate lesions and networks for atrial fibrillation newly detected on ECG or cardiac monitoring after stroke. We also calculated the mapping score to quantify the overlap between lesions and maps and evaluated its association with atrial fibrillation using lo
