Relationship Between Yearly Incidence of Ischemic Stroke and Risk Scores in Patients With Contraindication to OAC (A) Yearly stroke rates by CHADS score for the study cohort of OAC-naive patients with contraindication to OAC (n = 43,248; blue). Also presented are expected adjusted yearly stroke rates, by CHA2DS2 score, for a general population of patients with AF (as presented in current guidelines, red). † Adjusted stroke rates in the general population are based on data from Gage et al. (3,14). (B) Yearly stroke rates by CHA2DS2-VASc score for the study cohort of OAC-naive patients with contraindication to OAC (n = 43,248; blue). Also presented are expected adjusted yearly stroke rates, by CHA2DS2 score, for a general population of patients with AF (as presented in current guidelines, red). ‡Adjusted stroke rates in the general population are based on data from Lip et al.
