Abstract: Hypothetical relationships between heart failure and incident ischaemic stroke. Depicted are two extremes: (i) heart failure is coincidental with ischaemic stroke based on shared risk factors, regardless of ejection fraction (EF; upper portion of the figure), and (ii) the risk of cardioembolic stroke subtypes depends on the reduction of EF, with lower EF being associated with higher stroke risk (lower portion of the figure).
