Reduced dose direct oral anticoagulants compared with warfarin with high time in therapeutic range in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation
The objective of this study was to compare effectiveness and safety between reduced dose DOACs and high TTR warfarin treatment (TTR  ≥ 70%) in NVAF. A Swedish anticoagulation registry was used in identifying eligible patients from July 2011 to December 2017. The study cohort consisted of 40,564 patients with newly initiated DOAC (apixaban, dabigatran, or rivaroxaban) (11,083 patients) or warfarin treatment (29,481 patients ) after exclusion of 374,135 patients due to not being warfarin or DOAC naïve, not being prescribed reduced dose, having previous mechanical heart valve (MHV), or being under 18 years old. The me...

Expression of microRNA Predicts Cardiovascular Events in Patients with Stable Coronary Artery Disease
CONCLUSIONS: Among patients with CAD, adding miR-223-3p expression to traditional cardiovascular risk factors may improve prediction of cardiovascular events, particularly ST. Clinical trials confirming these findings are warranted.PMID:36603835 | DOI:10.1055/s-0042-1760258

Role of cerebral microbleeds in acute ischemic stroke and atrial fibrillation
AbstractCerebral microbleeds (CMBs) are commonly detected in the brains of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). With the development of neuroimaging, clinicians are paying more attention to the presence of CMBs. CMBs were found to significantly increase the risk of intracranial hemorrhagic transformation and hemorrhage in patients with AIS, especially in patients with concurrent atrial fibrillation (AF). Additionally, the presence of CMBs is thought to be a symbol of a high risk of recurrent ischemic stroke (IS). A few researchers have found that the presence of CMBs has no significant effect on the prognosis of pati...

Effectiveness and safety of direct oral anticoagulants in patients with venous thromboembolism and creatinine clearance   & lt;  30 mL/min
AbstractThe few studies that compared direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) vs. warfarin in the setting of advanced renal insufficiency have focused on patients with atrial fibrillation. The purpose of this observational, matched, cohort study of patients was to assess the effectiveness and safety of DOAC vs. warfarin for the treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE) among patients with a creatinine clearance (CrCl)  <  30 mL/min. This observational, cohort study included patients with VTE and CrCl <  30 mL/min who were newly initiated on a DOAC or warfarin between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2020. DOAC pati...

Impact of a pharmacist intervention on DOAC knowledge and satisfaction in ambulatory patients
AbstractPatient education of high-risk medications such as direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) is limited in ambulatory care settings. Clinical pharmacists are uniquely equipped to educate patients about DOACS but seldom interact with patients in those settings where patient education and satisfaction are often overlooked. Recently, the Anticoagulation Forum endorsed a checklist  (DOAC Checklist) to guide and educate patients initiating or resuming DOACs. We assessed the impact on knowledge and satisfaction of an intervention framed around the checklist. Randomized clinical trial. Ambulatory patients starting a DOAC or res...

Independent risk factors for an increased incidence of thromboembolism after lung transplantation
ConclusionsThe incidence of TE after LTX is high, especially in lung transplant recipients with a BMI  >  25 and an age >  55 years as well as cardiovascular risk factors closely associated with the metabolic syndrome. As these patients comprise a growing recipient fraction, intensified research should focus on the risks and benefits of regular screening or a prolonged TE prophylaxis in these patients.Trial registration number DKRS: 00021501.

Clinical impact of oral anticoagulation among octogenarians with atrial fibrillation and anaemia
AbstractOur study aimed to describe the efficacy and safety of oral anticoagulation (OAC) use in elderly patients (>  or = 80 years-old) with atrial fibrillation (AF) and concomitant anaemia. Data for this study were sourced from AF Research Database (NCT03760874). AF patients aged ≥ 80 who received OAC treatment, both direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) and vitamin K antagonist (VKA) were selected. Partici pants were categorized as anaemic and non-anaemic. The primary outcome was the occurrence of overall bleeding. The primary effectiveness outcome was the occurrence of thromboembolic events (a composite of isch...

The efficacy and safety of tenecteplase versus alteplase for acute ischemic stroke: an updated systematic review, pairwise, and network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
AbstractTenecteplase (TNK) is a promising candidate to replace alteplase as the standard of care for acute ischemic stroke (AIS); however, the optimal dosage is still to be investigated. Therefore, we aim to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TNK versus alteplase and to investigate the optimal TNK dosage. A systematic review, pairwise, and network meta-analysis synthesizing randomized controlled trials (RCTs) from WOS, SCOPUS, EMBASE, and PubMed until July 26th, 2022. We used the risk ratio (RR) for dichotomous outcomes presented with the corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI). We registered our protocol in PROSPERO w...
