Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants Versus Warfarin in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation with Coronary or Peripheral Artery Disease.
Authors: Zhang H, Xue Z, Yi D, Li X, Tan Y, Li J Abstract The efficacy and safety of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in atrial fibrillation (AF) with coronary or peripheral artery disease (CAD or PAD) remain largely unresolved. We, therefore, conducted a meta-analysis to explore the effect of NOACs compared with warfarin in these populations.We systematically searched the Cochrane Library, PubMed, and Embase databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving NOACs versus warfarin in AF patients with CAD or PAD. A random-effect model was selected to pool the risk ratios (RRs) and 95% co...

Prognostic Significance of Serum Indoxyl Sulfate and Albumin for Patients with Cardiovascular Disease.
Authors: Watanabe I, Tatebe J, Fujii T, Noike R, Saito D, Koike H, Yabe T, Okubo R, Nakanishi R, Amano H, Toda M, Ikeda T, Morita T Abstract The progression of renal dysfunction reduces serum albumin and deteriorates the binding capacity of protein-bound uremic toxins. We evaluated the prognostic implications of serum indoxyl sulfate (IS) and albumin levels in patients with cardiovascular disease.We prospectively enrolled 351 consecutive patients undergoing percutaneous revascularization for coronary artery disease or peripheral artery disease. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality. Patients were assigned to...

The Prognostic Implications of Living Alone on Long-Term Mortality in Patients with Chronic Coronary Syndrome after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Int Heart J. 2023;64(4):584-589. doi: 10.1536/ihj.23-063.ABSTRACTLiving alone is associated with increased cardiac events and mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction. However, the prognostic impact of living alone with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) still remains unclear. In the present study, we examined the relationship between living alone and long-term mortality in patients with CCS who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Consecutive 830 patients with CCS who underwent PCI were enrolled and divided into 2 groups according to whether or not they were living alone at the time of admission (...
