Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The main aim of the study is to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of ischemic stroke patients with atrial fibrillation and concurrent carotid atherosclerosis. Additionally, this study will investigate the effect of concurrent carotid atherosclerosis on the outcomes of recurrent stroke, myocardial infarction and death during follow-up
