Abstract
Introduction null Atrial fibrillation (AF), a risk factor for stroke and systemic thromboembolism, is associated with unfavorable fibrin clot properties and increased thrombus formation in peripheral blood. The left atrial appendage (LAA) is known to be the primary site of thrombus formation. null null null Aim null We investigated the relative differences in plasma fibrin clot features including plasma fibrin clot permeability (Ks) and clot...
