Long-term stroke and major bleeding risk in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation: A comparative analysis between non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants and warfarin using a clinical data warehouse
ConclusionsIn this CDW based study, NOACs are more effective and safer than warfarin in patients with AF even with long-term follow-up. NOACs should be used to prevent ischemic stroke in patients with AF

The relationship between stroke severity and prior direct oral anticoagulant therapy in patients with acute ischemic stroke and non ‐valvular atrial fibrillation
ConclusionDOAC treatment prior to the event should reduce initial stroke severity in patients with AIS and NVAF.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Primary Prevention of Stroke in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients: A Scientific Update
Background: Although chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an independent risk factor for stroke, official recommendations for the primary prevention of stroke in CKD are generally lacking.Summary: We searched PubMed and ISI Web of Science for randomised controlled trials, observational studies, reviews, meta-analyses and guidelines referring to measures of stroke prevention or to the treatment of stroke-associated risk factors (cardiovascular disease in general and atrial fibrillation (AF), arterial hypertension or carotid artery disease in particular) among the CKD population. The use of oral anticoagulation in AF appears safe...

Cost-Effectiveness of Left Atrial Appendage Closure With the WATCHMAN Device Compared With Warfarin or Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants for Secondary Prevention in Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—Upfront procedure costs initially make LAAC higher cost than warfarin and the non–vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants, but within 10 years, LAAC delivers more quality-adjusted life years and has lower total costs, making LAAC the most cost-effective treatment strategy for secondary prevention of stroke in atrial fibrillation.

Stroke severity in patients with preceding direct oral anticoagulant therapy as compared to vitamin K antagonists
AbstractBackgroundAlthough direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) have proven at least equally effective in the prevention of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in patients with atrial fibrillation as compared to the vitamin K antagonists (VKA), no reliable data on the severity of AIS of DOAC patients as compared to VKA is available.MethodsUsing a prospectively collected cohort of AIS patients, we performed univariate and multivariate (displayed as adjusted Odds Ratios, OR and 95% confidence intervals, 95% CI) analyses regarding the severity of AIS in patients with preceding DOAC (N = 210) versus VKA (N = 173) therapy. Additio...

Underdosed Direct Oral Anticoagulants in Atrial Fibrillation Patients Reduce Stroke Severity and Improve Outcome
Conclusions: In patients with atrial fibrillation, recommended doses and underdoses of DOACs reduced stroke severity on admission and were associated with good 3-month outcomes.Cerebrovasc Dis

Effectiveness and Safety of Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants in Asian Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—In real-world practice among a high-risk Asian atrial fibrillation population, all 3 NOACs demonstrated similar risk of ischemic stroke and lower risk of ICH compared with warfarin. All-cause mortality was significantly lower only with dabigatran and apixaban.

Impact of type of oral anticoagulants in patients with cerebral microbleeds after atrial fibrillation-related ischemic stroke or TIA: Results of the NOACISP-LONGTERM registry
ConclusionsIn AF-stroke patients treated with OAC, the presence of CMBs was associated with an unfavorable composite outcome for both VKAs and DOACs, with a higher risk for recurrent IS than for ICH. Strokes were numerically higher under VKAs and increased in the presence of CMBs.Clinical trial registrationhttp://www.clinicaltrials.gov, Unique identifier: NCT03826927.

Cerebral microbleeds and intracranial haemorrhage risk in patients anticoagulated for atrial fibrillation after acute ischaemic stroke or transient ischaemic attack (CROMIS-2): a multicentre observational cohort study
This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02513316. Findings Between Aug 4, 2011, and July 31, 2015, we recruited 1490 participants of whom follow-up data were available for 1447 (97%), over a mean period of 850 days (SD 373; 3366 patient-years). The symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage rate in patients with cerebral microbleeds was 9·8 per 1000 patient-years (95% CI 4·0–20·3) compared with 2·6 per 1000 patient-years (95% CI 1·1–5·4) in those without cerebral microbleeds (adjusted hazard ratio 3·67, 95% CI 1·27–10·60). Compared with the HAS-BLED score alone (C-index 0·41, 95% CI 0·29–0...

Rivaroxaban in Recurrent Ischemic Stroke Due to Protein S Deficiency: A Case Report
In this study our patient was treated with rivaroxaban. Protein S deficiency may be a predisposing factor in recurrent ischemic stroke, and rivaroxaban can be a safe and effective treatment option. Further studies are needed to confirm our findings.

Vitamin K Antagonist–associated Intracerebral Hemorrhage: Lessons from a Devastating Disease in the Dawn of the New Oral Anticoagulants
Conclusions: VKA-associated ICH presents in a particularly vulnerable population and has a poor prognosis that may be reliably predicted by several clinicoradiologic features.

Influence of oral anticoagulation on stroke severity and outcomes: A propensity score matching case-control study
Oral anticoagulants (OAC) such as vitamin K antagonists (VKA) and direct-acting OACs (DOAC) remain the mainstay for prevention of cardioembolic stroke. The influence of previous OAC treatment on stroke severity and outcomes is not well stablished. We compared patients with incident cardioembolic strokes according to pre-stroke treatment.
