Mary Cushman: Circulating Biomarkers and New Risk Score Enhance Stroke Prediction in AFib

Mary Cushman, Hematologist, University Distinguished Professor and Vice Chair for Emerging Researchers  at UVM Department of Medicine, shared on X:

”New risk calculator for stroke prediction in Atrial Fibrillation
Two REGARDS Study manuscripts in JTH journal

One Identified biomarkers for breakthrough stroke
In the other we developed a new CHADS-VASc-Biomarkers score!”
