BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac cause of ischemic stroke. However, the relation between AF and stroke care outcomes in diverse populations is understudied. We aimed to evaluate sex and race-ethnic disparities associated with AF in hospital stroke outcomes utilizing data from the FLorida PuErto Rico Atrial Fibrillation (FLiPER–AF) Stroke Study. METHODS: The study included 104,308 ischemic stroke cases with available information on AF status enrolled in a state-wide stroke registry from 2010 to 2016. Multivariable logistic regression models were performed to evaluate the association between AF and stroke outcomes and the modification effects on the associations by sex and by race-ethnicity, adjusted for socio-demographic status, vascular risk factors and stroke severity. RESULTS: AF was present in 23% of ischemic stroke cases. AF was associated with worse disability at discharge (OR=1.11, 95% CI, 1.04–1.18), less discharge to home (OR=0.89, 0.85–0.92), and longer length of hospital stay (LOS>6 days, OR=1.53, 1.46–1.60). Interaction analyses showed that the association between AF and less discharge to home was stronger in women than men (p for interaction
