Association of Low Body Weight with Clinical Outcomes in Elderly Atrial Fibrillation Patients Receiving Apixaban —J-ELD AF Registry Subanalysis
ConclusionsThe incidence of events in each body weight group was comparable for stroke or systemic embolism and bleeding requiring hospitalization, and body weight<50 kg might not be an independent risk for death in Japanese non-valvular AF patients aged ≥ 75 years taking on-label doses of apixaban.

Effectiveness and safety of transcatheter left atrial appendage closure
J Cardiol. 2021 Sep 23:S0914-5087(21)00234-3. doi: 10.1016/j.jjcc.2021.08.031. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAtrial fibrillation (AF) is responsible for cardiogenic stroke. Since left atrial appendage (LAA) is a cause of most of cardiac thrombus, LAA closure is an emerging novel stroke prevention procedure for patients with AF alternative to anticoagulation. WATCHMAN LAA Closure device (Boston Scientific, Marlborough, MA, USA) is the only approved device in the USA and Japan. The device is indicated in high bleeding risk and high stroke risk non-valvular AF patients. Cardiac tamponade, stroke, and device embolization are t...

Interrupted versus uninterrupted anticoagulation therapy for catheter ablation in adults with arrhythmias
CONCLUSIONS: This meta-analysis showed that the evidence is uncertain to inform the decision to either interrupt or continue anticoagulation therapy around CA procedure in adults with arrhythmia on outcomes of thromboembolic events, major and minor bleeding, all-cause mortality, asymptomatic thromboembolic events, and a composite endpoint of thromboembolic events (stroke, systemic embolism, major bleeding, and all-cause mortality). Most studies in the review adopted a minimal interruption strategy which has the advantage of reducing the risk of bleeding while maintaining a lower level of anticoagulation to prevent periproc...

Comparative Safety and Effectiveness of Apixaban vs. Warfarin in Oral Anticoagulant-Na ïve Japanese Patients With Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation - A Retrospective Chart Review Study
CONCLUSIONS: The benefit of apixaban over warfarin for the reduction in risk of major bleeding and stroke/SE could be generalizable to daily clinical practice and to patients with reduced renal function.PMID:34897136 | DOI:10.1253/circj.CJ-21-0682

10-Year Trends of Antithrombotic Therapy Status and Outcomes in Japanese Atrial Fibrillation Patients - The Fushimi AF Registry
CONCLUSIONS: Over the past 10 years, there has been a major transition in antithrombotic therapy and a decline in the incidence of adverse events in AF patients.PMID:35283403 | DOI:10.1253/circj.CJ-22-0023

Treatment strategy of dabigatran etexilate following the availability of idarucizumab in Japanese patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation: J-Dabigatran Surveillance 2
CONCLUSIONS: Dabigatran continues to be safe and well tolerated in patients with NVAF for stroke and systemic embolism prevention and continues to be prescribed appropriately. Treatment outcomes have not changed since the availability of idarucizumab. Since the J-Dabi1 study, treatment guidelines for anticoagulation use in NVAF have been updated based on emerging clinical evidence, accounting for differences in patient characteristics, and making dabigatran a preference for distinct patient populations.PMID:35717283 | DOI:10.1016/j.jjcc.2022.04.007
