Mohamed Ahmed Mohamed, Mursi Abd elhamid, Mosab Abdelhameed, Mohamed Eissa

This review describes present evidence relating to the association in between known stroke danger elements, underlying problems and consequences and the progression and development of AF. We searched PubMed, Medline and web of science databases for recent for studies concerning Association of ischemic stroke in cases with atrial fibrillation published up to September, 2019. Medical Mesh terms were used in our search as following; “ischemic heart disease” “atrial fibrillation”.
