  1. Minimally-adjusted models were adjusted for categorized age (< 65; ≥65) and gender
  2. Multivariable-adjusted models were additionally adjusted for HAS_BLED (0–1; ≥2), CHA2DS2-VASc (0–1; ≥2), type of AF (paroxysmal/persistent)
  3. 1 MACE was defined as the composite of any MI/stroke (n=14), heart failure (n=20) and mortality (n=8).
