Figures & data

Table 1. Baseline characteristics of the study cohort according to oral anticoagulant categories.

Figure 1. Crude cumulative incidence curves of (a) ischaemic stroke, (b) intracranial haemorrhage and (c) all-cause mortality in the studied oral anticoagulation groups. TTR: time-in-therapeutic-range.

Figure 2. Inverse-probability-of-treatment-weighted Cox hazard ratios of calculated incidence rates per 100 patient years for direct oral anticoagulants compared with warfarin in different time-in-therapeutic-range groups for ischaemic stroke, intracranial haemorrhage, any bleeding and death endpoints. Reference group (1) = warfarin patients with the second best (TTR group 3) time-in-therapeutic-range (TTR).

Reference group (1) = warfarin patients with the second best (TTR group 3) time-in-therapeutic-range (TTR).
