Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
2MACE scoreAt baseline

MACE: Major adverse cardiovascular events. 2MACE: History of Myocardial infarction/ Cardiac revascularization and Metabolic Syndrome, Age \>75 years, Congestive heart failure (ejection fraction \<40%), Thrombo-Embolism

Occurrence of MACE to evaluate the performance of the 2MACE indexAt 2 years and 6 months or early termination

Percentage of patients with MACE including fatal/nonfatal myocardial infarction, cardiac revascularization and cardiovascular death

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incorporation of additional risk factors to the 2MACE index or replacing some of the existing onesAt baseline

Risk factors to the 2MACE index (e.g. body mass index, smoking, drugs use, estimated glomerular filtration rate, structural cardio-pathology)

Occurrence of strokeAt baseline, at 1 year, at 2 years, at 2 years and 6 months or early termination
Thromboembolic risk based on the CHA2DS2-VASCAt baseline

CHA2DS2-VASc:Cardiac failure, Hypertension, Age ≥75, Diabetes, Stroke -Vascular disease, Age and Sex category

Occurrence of transient ischemic attack (TIA)At baseline, at 1 year, at 2 years, at 2 years and 6 months or early termination
Occurrence of systemic embolismAt baseline, at 1 year, at 2 years, at 2 years and 6 months or early termination
Thromboembolic risk based on the CHADS2 scoreAt baseline

CHADS2: Cardiac Failure, Hypertension, Age, Diabetes, Stroke

Patients' profileAt baseline

Baseline patients' profile defined by: sociodemographic data, anthropometric data, previous relevant medical history, cardiac medical history distinct to atrial fibrillation, comorbidities (renal failure, left ventricular dysfunction, hypertension, thyroid dysfunction, liver failure, alcoholism)

Occurrence of major cardiovascular events (fatal/nonfatal myocardial infarction, cardiac revascularization and cardiovascular death)At baseline, at 1 year, at 2 years, at 2 years and 6 months or early termination
Number of MACEs occurring during the studyAt 1 year, at 2 years, at 2 years and 6 months or early termination
Number of cases (frequency) of metabolism syndrome at enrollment with/without the occurrence of myocardial infarction or coronary revascularizationAt baseline
