Atrial fibrillation (AF) is known to be a significant risk factor for poor prognosis after stroke. In this study, we compared differences in long-term outcomes after ischemic stroke among patients with AF and sinus rhythm (SR). We identified patients admitted to the reference Neurology Center between 1 January 2013 and 30 April 2015, inclusive, with acute ischemic stroke.

- A cross-sectional study in the Swietokrzyskie Region of Poland aimed to gather comprehensive data on the incidence and prevalence of multiple sclerosis (MS) from 2010 to 2014.
- The study identified 1,462 confirmed MS patients, revealing a crude prevalence rate of 115.7 per 100,000, significantly higher in females (159.6) compared to males (69.7).
- The findings indicate that central Poland is a high-risk area for MS, with an increasing prevalence trend compared to previous studies.
