Patterns of anticoagulation therapy in atrial fibrillation: results from a large real-life single-center registry.
CONCLUSION: Warfarin and DOACs are administered to different target populations, possibly due to socio-economic reasons. Patients receiving warfarin rarely obtain optimal dosing control, and experience significantly shorter survival compared with patients receiving DOACs. PMID: 33150762 [PubMed - in process]

Role of platelet gene polymorphisms in ischemic pediatric stroke subtypes: a case-control study.
CONCLUSION: Individual HPAs, and particularly HPA haplotypes, are involved in IPS subtypes pathogenesis. A possible risk-inducing synergistic effect of SELP haplotypes with FV R506Q is restricted to PAIS only. PMID: 32118374 [PubMed - in process]

Unstable carotid artery plaque: new insights and controversies in diagnostics and treatment.
Abstract Cardiovascular disease is estimated to be the leading cause of death, globally causing 14 million deaths each year. Stroke remains a massive public health problem and there is an increasing need for better strategies for the prevention and treatment of this disease. At least 20% of ischemic strokes are thromboembolic in nature, caused by a thromboembolism from an atherosclerotic plaque at the carotid bifurcation or the internal carotid artery. Current clinical guidelines for both primary and secondary prevention of stroke in patients with carotid stenosis caused by atherosclerotic plaques remain reliant o...
