Atrial Fibrillation Risk Scores as Potential Predictors of Significant Coronary Artery Disease in Chronic Coronary Syndrome: A Novel Diagnostic Approach by Alexandru-Florinel Oancea, Paula Cristina Morariu, Maria Godun, Stefan Dorin Dobreanu, Miron Mihnea, Diana Gabriela Iosep, Ana Maria Buburuz, Ovidiu Mitu, Alexandru Burlacu, Diana-Elena Floria, Raluca Mitea, Andrei Vâță, Daniela Maria Tanase, Antoniu Octavian Petris, Irina-Iuliana Costache-Enache, Mariana Floria

“…Chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are prevalent cardiovascular conditions that share numerous risk factors and pathophysiological mechanisms. While clinical scores commonly used in AF—such as CHA₂DS₂VA (which includes congestive heart failure, hypertension, age ≥ 75, diabetes, stroke/TIA, vascular disease, and age 65–74), HAS-BLED (which incorporates hypertension, abnormal renal/liver function, stroke, bleeding history, labile INR, elderly age, and drug/alcohol use), and C₂HEST (incorporating coronary artery disease, COPD, hypertension, elderly age ≥ 75, systolic heart failure, and thyroid disease)—are traditionally applied to rhythm or bleeding risk prediction, their value in estimating the angiographic severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) remains underexplored. …”
