For continuous variables, values are expressed as mean (standard deviation) unless stated. For dichotomous variables, values are n (%). AF indicates atrial fibrillation; BP, blood pressure; DM, diabetes mellitus; ICH, intracerebral hemorrhage; IQR, interquartile range; IVH, intraventricular hemorrhage; MI, previous myocardial infarction; and NIHSS, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale. N/A = not available in CLEAR B dataset. P values are for t test, Mann–Whitney tests or χ2 comparison.
