Guideline-directed therapies for comorbidities and clinical outcomes among individuals with atrial fibrillation
ConclusionsIn AF patients, there is underuse of GDT for non-AF comorbidities. The association between GDT use and outcomes was strongest in heart failure and obstructive sleep apnea patients where use of GDT was associated with lower mortality and less AF progression.

Outcome impact of different tranexamic acid regimens in cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (OPTIMAL): Rationale, design, and study protocol of a multi-center randomized controlled trial
ConclusionsThe study is designed to identify a TxA dose with maximal efficacy and minimal complications. We hypothesize that the high dose has superior efficacy and non-inferior safety to the low dose.

Randomized evaluation of ticagrelor monotherapy after 3-month dual-antiplatelet therapy in patients with acute coronary syndrome treated with new-generation sirolimus-eluting stents: TICO trial rationale and design
ConclusionsThe TICO trial is an ongoing trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor monotherapy following 3-month DAPT exclusively in ACS patients treated with uniform BP-SES. It may provide novel insights regarding the need for adjusted use of DAPT for rebalancing risk–benefit in current practice and changing from the conventional concept of aspirin maintenance to a ticagrelor-based regimen in the management of ACS.

Relationship of stroke and bleeding risk profiles to efficacy and safety of dabigatran dual therapy versus warfarin triple therapy in atrial fibrillation after PCI: An ancillary analysis from the RE-DUAL PCI trial
ConclusionDabigatran dual therapy reduced bleeding events irrespective of bleeding risk category and demonstrated similar efficacy regardless of stroke risk category when compared with warfarin triple therapy.

Publication date: November 2018Source: American Heart Journal, Volume 205Author(s): Nicolas M. Van Mieghem, Martin Unverdorben, Marco Valgimigli, Roxana Mehran, Eric Boersma, Usman Baber, Christian Hengstenberg, Minggao Shi, Cathy Chen, Shigeru Saito, Roland Veltkamp, Pascal Vranckx, George D. DangasTranscatheter aortic valve implantation, also called transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), is the treatment of choice for patients with severe aortic stenosis and intermediate to high operative risk. A significant portion of TAVR patients have atrial fibrillation (AF) requiring chronic oral anticoagulation. In moderate...

Rationale and design of the EVOLVE short DAPT study to assess 3-month dual antiplatelet therapy in subjects at high risk for bleeding undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
ConclusionThe EVOLVE Short DAPT study will prospectively define the safety of DAPT discontinuation at 3 months in high bleeding risk patients treated with the SYNERGY stent.

Safety and efficacy of non–vitamin K oral anticoagulant for atrial fibrillation patients after percutaneous coronary intervention: A bivariate analysis of the PIONEER AF-PCI and RE-DUAL PCI trial
ConclusionsA bivariate analysis that simultaneously characterizes both risk and benefit demonstrates that riva- and dabi-based regimens were both favorable over VKA plus dual antiplatelet therapy among patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing PCI.

Impact of total ischemic time on manual thrombus aspiration benefit during primary percutaneous coronary intervention
ConclusionIn a large registry of STEMI patients, manual TA was not associated with lower risk-adjusted in-hospital all-cause mortality compared with PCI-alone regardless of TIT but was associated with significantly greater risk of MACE. In patients with prolonged TIT, manual TA was associated with higher risk-adjusted MACE rates compared with PCI-alone.

An open-Label, 2 × 2 factorial, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the safety of apixaban vs. vitamin K antagonist and aspirin vs. placebo in patients with atrial fibrillation and acute coronary syndrome and/or percutaneous coronary intervention: Rationale and design of the AUGUSTUS trial
Publication date: June 2018 Source:American Heart Journal, Volume 200 Author(s): Renato D. Lopes, Amit N. Vora, Danny Liaw, Christopher B. Granger, Harald Darius, Shaun G. Goodman, Roxana Mehran, Stephan Windecker, John H. Alexander Background The optimal antithrombotic strategy for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who develop acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and/or the need for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is uncertain. The risk of bleeding is a major concern when oral anticoagulation is required to prevent stroke, and concomitant therapy with antiplatelet agents is required to minimize recurrent ischemic ...

Oral anti-Xa anticoagulation after Trans-Aortic Valve Implantation for Aortic Stenosis: The randomized ATLANTIS trial
Conclusions ATLANTIS tests the superiority of an apixaban-based strategy versus the recommended standard of care strategy to reduce the risk of post-TAVR thromboembolic and bleeding complications in an all comer population.
