Case report: MELAS and concomitant presumed antiphospholipid antibody syndrome in an adult woman
Mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, stroke-like episodes, and other features (short stature, headaches, seizures, and sensorineural hearing loss) constitute characteristics of MELAS syndrome. MELAS is a rare condition due to mutations in maternally inherited mitochondrial DNA with levels of heteroplasmy possibly related to late adulthood presentation. A previously reported MELAS case coexisted with presumed Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome (APLAS), but the connection between MELAS and a potential APLAS is unclear. A 29-year-old woman presented with mild right-sided sensorimotor symptoms and mixed aphasia in...

Real-World Study Confirms Benefit of XARELTO ® (rivaroxaban) for Secondary Prevention of Venous Thromboembolism in Cancer Patients
TITUSVILLE, NJ, December 9, 2022 – The Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson today announced observational data from eight years of clinical practice showing that the oral Factor Xa inhibitor XARELTO® (rivaroxaban) is associated with comparable effectiveness and safety to the Factor Xa inhibitor apixaban for the treatment of cancer-associated thromboembolism (CAT) in a broad cohort of patients with various cancer types. Patients with CAT are at a higher risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), which is the second-leading cause of death in people with cancer.1Data from the Observational Study in Cancer-A...

Comparative Effectiveness and Safety of Direct Oral Anticoagulants Versus Warfarin Among Adults With Cancer and Atrial Fibrillation
CONCLUSIONS: Older adults with cancer and atrial fibrillation exposed to DOACs had similar risks of stroke and systemic embolism and major bleeding as those exposed to warfarin. Relative to warfarin, DOAC use was associated with a similar risk of cardiovascular death and a lower risk of all-cause death.PMID:36453260 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCOUTCOMES.122.008951

Delaying clinical events among patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation treated with oral anticoagulants: Insights from the ARISTOPHANES study
CONCLUSIONS: Over 12 months after initiation, apixaban and dabigatran conferred progressive increases in event free time for stroke/SE and MB vs warfarin, whereas rivaroxaban conferred an increase in stroke/SE-free time but a loss in MB-free time vs warfarin.PMID:36456387 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejim.2022.10.021

Temporal trends in anticoagulation management for US active duty personnel with atrial fibrillation
Conclusions This is the first report describing AC utilisation in US AD military members with AF. Young AD personnel with low stroke and bleeding risks do not commonly receive AC prescriptions. DOAC prescription rates are increasing and predominate over warfarin for AC indications.

Prognostic impact of heart rate during atrial fibrillation on clinical outcomes in elderly non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients: ANAFIE Registry sub-cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: Elderly Japanese patients with non-paroxysmal NVAF and a heart rate ≥110 bpm have an increased risk of cardiac events. There was no interaction between heart rate category and the relative risk of adverse clinical events in patients taking DOACs compared with those taking warfarin.PMID:36427691 | DOI:10.1016/j.jjcc.2022.11.011

Eight pharmacokinetic genetic variants are not associated with the risk of bleeding from direct oral anticoagulants in non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients
Conclusion: Eight functional PK-related genetic variants were not significantly associated with bleeding from either rivaroxaban or apixaban in more than 2,000 AF self-identified white outpatients.

Self-reported adherence to direct oral anticoagulants versus warfarin therapy in a specialized thrombosis service —a cross-sectional study of patients in a Canadian Health Region
ConclusionsSelf-reported medication adherence was similar between warfarin and DOACs. Since suboptimal adherence is associated with poor clinical outcomes and increased costs, various stakeholders should emphasize the importance of medication adherence to oral anticoagulants at each patient encounter.

Proportion of Patients on Warfarin Therapy Who Are Eligible for Conversion to a Direct Oral Anticoagulant in the Setting of COVID-19
CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE: Approximately 52% of patients on warfarin were eligible for DOACs. This presents an opportunity to reduce patient exposure to health care settings and health care utilization in the setting of COVID-19. Increased costs of DOACs need to be assessed.PMID:36373362 | PMC:PMC9663271 | DOI:10.1177/10600280221136874

Incidence of stroke, systemic embolism and bleeding events in patients without anticoagulation based on real-world data in Japan: a retrospective cohort study
Conclusions Approximately one-third of the patients do not receive any anticoagulation in the modern DOAC era in Japan. The SSE rate increases by the CHADS2 score. The SSE rate is low in patients with a CHADS2 score <1, supporting no indication of anticoagulation in current guidelines. In patients with a CHADS2 score >1, the use of anticoagulant drug therapy is recommended because of a higher risk of stroke.
