Analysis of bioMARKer Distribution and Individual Reproducibility Under Rivaroxaban Treatment in Japanese Patients with Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation (R-MARK Study, CVI ARO2).
We reported the on-therapy range of rivaroxaban in a multicenter cohort. This range was consistent with that of a single-center cohort and was highly reproducible within three months in daily clinical practice. However, caution is necessary regarding several factors that may affect the intraindividual variation of PC-Riv. PMID: 32684604 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Clinical characteristics and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation receiving rhythm-control therapy: the Fushimi AF Registry
AbstractManagement of atrial fibrillation (AF) with current rhythm-control therapy has an uncertain impact on outcomes. Among 3731 patients in the Fushimi AF Registry, a community-based prospective survey of AF patients in Fushimi-ku, Kyoto, we investigated the characteristics and outcomes in 478 patients receiving rhythm-control therapy (anti-arrhythmic drug and/or catheter ablation) alone, with 1279 patients receiving rate-control therapy (beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, and digoxin) alone serving as a reference. The Rhythm-control group, 26% of which had prior catheter ablation, was younger (70.5  ± 10.8 v...
