Cardiac Arrhythmias and Stroke
Stroke 31:2925-2929, Engstrom,G.,et al, 2000
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
With the exception of atrial fibrillation (AF), little scientific attention has been given the associations between cardiac arrhythmias and incidence of stroke. We sought to study whether atrial and ventricular arrhythmias assessed during a 24-hour ambulatory ECG registration are associated with incidence of stroke. A high frequency of AEB is associated with an increased incidence of stroke.
