However, persistence of oral anticoagulation therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation and MHCs is unknown. We aimed to evaluate the effect of MHCs on the persistence of direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) use in patients with atrial fibrillation based on a nationwide cohort. METHODS AND RESULTS: The nationwide registry-based FinACAF (Finnish Anticoagulation in Atrial Fibrillation)...
