Increased major bleeding incidence in atrial fibrillation patients with apixaban: a review of Japanese post-marketing surveillance studies of direct oral anticoagulants
AbstractLarge-scaled post-marketing surveillance studies (PMSSs) of 4 direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) for stroke prevention in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) were conducted since 2011 in Japan, and the results of the last one have recently been published. Each reported a more than acceptable ischemic stroke prevention. The major bleeding rates were also acceptably low and comparable to each other in the PMSSs of dabigatran (J-dabigatran), rivaroxaban (XAPASS), and edoxaban (ETNA-AF-Japan). However, the incidence in PMSS of apixaban (STANDARD) was more than double the others. This finding appeared to contradict th...

Medication Adherence and Stroke Prevention: What Real World Data Tells Us.
Authors: Hsieh CY Abstract Medication adherence, by definition,(2) is "the extent to which a patient acts in accordance with the prescribed interval and dose of a dosing regimen." Poor medication adherence can interfere with the ability to treat many diseases, leading to greater complications and a lower quality of life.(3) In this issue of Acta Neurologica Taiwanica, Chen et al.(4) presented the inverse association between adherence of antithrombotic agents and poor outcomes after a first-ever ischemic stroke. The findings were consistent with Sung, et al.(5) that medication nonadherence are prevalent in young adu...

Diet Drinks Linked To Increased Stroke Risk & Heart Attacks
This study, as well as other research on the connection between diet beverages and vascular disease, is observational and cannot show cause and effect. That’s a major limitation, researchers say, as it’s impossible to determine whether the association is due to a specific artificial sweetener, a type of beverage or another hidden health issue. “Postmenopausal women tend to have higher risk for vascular disease because they are lacking the protective effects of natural hormones,” North Carolina cardiologist Dr. Kevin Campbell said, which could contribute to increased risk for heart disease and stroke...

Past Covidien, ev3 Activities are Costing Medtronic a Hefty Sum
Sometimes acquiring other companies means taking the bad with the good. In Medtronic's case, that means settling multiple Department of Justice claims against ev3, a business Medtronic owns by way of its Covidien acquisition. Covidien bought ev3 in 2010 and Medtronic finalized its $49.9 billion Covidien deal in early 2015. Now, Medtronic is paying the price for activities that ev3 allegedly conducted between 2005 and 2009 involving the Onyx Liquid Embolic System. FDA approved the device in 2005 as a liquid embolization device that is surgically injected into blood vessels to block blood flow to arteriovenous malformations ...

Extension of Disease Risk Score-Based Confounding Adjustments for Multiple Outcomes Of Interest- An Empirical Evaluation.
Abstract Use of disease risk score (DRS)-based confounding adjustment when estimating treatment effects on multiple outcomes is not well studied. Using an empirical example comparing dabigatran versus warfarin on ischemic stroke and major bleeding risk in 12 sequential monitoring periods (90 days each) using the Truven Marketscan database, we compared two approaches for combining DRS for multiple outcomes: (1) 1:1 matching on prognostic propensity scores (PPS), created using DRS for bleeding and stroke as independent variables in a propensity score (PS) model; and (2) simultaneous 1:1 matching on DRS for bleeding ...
