Aspirin and clopidogrel resistance; a neglected gap in stroke and cardiovascular practice in Iran: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Antiplatelet drugs, such as Aspirin and Clopidogrel (Plavix) are effective in the primary prevention of thromboembolic events. They are commonly used to reduce the risk of recurrence of thromboembolism. The bo...

Clopidogrel monotherapy versus Aspirin monotherapy in patients with established cardiovascular disease: systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with established cardiovascular disease, Clopidogrel was associated with a 17% relative-risk reduction for non-fatal MI, borderline decreased risk for MACE and similar risk for all-cause mortality, stroke and major bleeding compared to Aspirin.PMID:35577054 | DOI:10.1055/a-1853-2952

Antithrombotic strategy and its relationship with outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation and chronic coronary syndrome
This study aimed to explore antithrombotic strategy and its relationship with outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) at high risk for stroke and chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) in real-world clinical practice. Patients with AF at high risk for stroke complicated with CCS from China Atrial Fibrillation Registry (CAFR) were enrolled. The patients were divided into non-antithrombotic (Non-AT) group, oral anticoagulants (OAC) group, antiplatelet therapy (APT) group (aspirin or clopidogrel), and dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) group (aspirin  + clopidogrel) according to their antithrombotic strategies at baseli...

Management of tandem occlusions in patients who receive rtPA
ConclusionThe use of GP2b3aI in the setting of tandem occlusions that required emergent stent placement post-rtPA appears safe and effective. Given the small sample size, these findings should be interpreted cautiously, and need to be confirmed in a larger patient population.

Outcomes of a multi-ethnic Asian population on combined treatment with clopidogrel and omeprazole in 12,440 patients
In conclusion, the use of clopidogrel with omeprazole is associated with an increased risk of MI, but not mortality or stroke, in this multi-ethnic Asian population. These risks appear to vary among different ethnic groups.

Impact of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation on Thrombin Generation and Platelet Function
CONCLUSION: In this pilot study, we were able to demonstrate that thrombin generation is significantly increased early after TAVI, while platelet function is not affected. Increased thrombin concentrations may contribute to the high risk of postprocedural thromboembolic events. This leads to the hypothesis that extended peri-interventional anticoagulation early after TAVI may be an approach to reduce thromboembolic events.PMID:33759144 | DOI:10.1055/s-0041-1725190

Clopidogrel increases risk of pneumonia compared with aspirin in acute ischemic minor stroke patients
AbstractAntiplatelet agents may increase the risk of infections via suppressing platelet-mediated immune response. Here we assessed the contribution of clopidogrel versus aspirin to the development of pneumonia during an acute ischemic stroke admission. A retrospective cohort study was conducted of acute ischemic stroke patients who were admitted to our hospital from 2015 to 2018. Included patients received uninterrupted clopidogrel or aspirin therapy and did not take other antiplatelet agents throughout their stay. The interest outcome was development of pneumonia after stroke. Conditional logistic regression model after ...

Risk of major adverse cardiovascular events of CYP2C19 loss-of-function genotype guided prasugrel/ticagrelor vs clopidogrel therapy for acute coronary syndrome patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: a meta-analysis.
Authors: Biswas M, Kali MSK, Biswas TK, Ibrahim B Abstract The most effective antiplatelet treatments for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients carrying CYP2C19 loss-of-function (LoF) alleles undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is still debating and conflicting. It was aimed to compare the efficacy and safety endpoints for these patients treated with alternative P2Y12 receptor blockers (e.g. prasugrel or ticagrelor) against clopidogrel. Literature was searched in PubMed, Cochrane library, Synapse and 1000 Genomes databases following PRISMA guidelines for identifying relevant studies. Aggregated ris...

The efficacy and safety of CYP2C19 genotype-guided antiplatelet therapy compared with conventional antiplatelet therapy in patients with acute coronary syndrome or undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CYP2C19 genotype-guided antiplatelet therapy in patients with ACS or undergoing PCI. PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library and clinicaltrials.gov were searched to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing CYP2C19 genotype-guided antiplatelet therapy with conventional therapy in patients with ACS or undergoing PCI. Eight RCTs involving 6708 patients were included in this meta-analysis. CYP2C19 genotype-guided antiplatelet therapy was slightly superior to the conventional antiplatelet therapy in reducing the risk of MACE [RR(95%CI): 0.71(0.51-0.98), p = .04...

Interactions between clopidogrel and traditional Chinese medicine
AbstractThe use of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has obtained more and more acceptance all over the world due to its multi-target and multi-level function characteristics. Clopidogrel is a major therapeutic option to reduce atherothrombotic events in patients with acute coronary syndrome, recent myocardial infarction, recent stroke or established peripheral arterial disease. These patients probably take TCM. Are there any interactions between clopidogrel and TCM? Whether TCM will affect the efficacy of clopidogrel or increase the adverse reactions of bleeding? Clarifying this information will help physicians make bett...

Associations between use of prasugrel vs clopidogrel and outcomes by type of acute coronary syndrome: an analysis from the PROMETHEUS registry
AbstractWe sought to investigate the utilization of prasugrel and its association with outcomes relative to clopidogrel in three typical subgroups of ACS in a real-world setting. Prasugrel is superior to clopidogrel for reducing risk of ischemic events in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), but is associated with an increased risk of bleeding complications. PROMETHEUS was a retrospective multicenter observational study of 19,913 ACS patients undergoing PCI from 8 centers in the United States between 2010 and 2013. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were define...
