Comparative Effectiveness and Safety Between Apixaban, Dabigatran, Edoxaban, and Rivaroxaban Among Patients With Atrial Fibrillation : A Multinational Population-Based Cohort Study
CONCLUSION: Among patients with AF, apixaban use was associated with lower risk for GIB and similar rates of ischemic stroke or systemic embolism, ICH, and all-cause mortality compared with dabigatran, edoxaban, and rivaroxaban. This finding was consistent for patients aged 80 years or older and those with chronic kidney disease, who are often underrepresented in clinical trials.PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE: None.PMID:36315950 | DOI:10.7326/M22-0511

Dabigatran Reversal: A Practical Approach
Acta Med Port. 2022 May 2;35(5):394-398. doi: 10.20344/amp.17662. Epub 2022 May 2.ABSTRACTDabigatran is a direct oral anticoagulant used to prevent stroke and systemic embolism in patients with atrial fibrillation. In situations that require the urgent reversal of its anticoagulant activity, such as in the case of severe bleeding that is life-threatening; urgent/ emergent surgery or invasive procedures with significant bleeding risk; and the need for thrombolysis in a patient with ischemic stroke, several measures can be taken, including the use of its specific reversal agent, idarucizumab. Based on the guidelines for the ...

Comparative non-persistence in the first year of treatment with oral anticoagulants in patients with atrial fibrillation: A French comprehensive nationwide study
CONCLUSIONS: In this nationwide observational study, non-persistence rates of oral anticoagulant treatment were high in patients treated for NVAF. Apixaban-treated patients seem to experience lowest discontinuation rates 12 months after treatment initiation compared to patients treated with any other OAC.PMID:36257903 | DOI:10.1016/j.acvd.2022.06.006

Using primary care data to assess comparative effectiveness and safety of apixaban and rivaroxaban in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation in the UK: an observational cohort study
Conclusions Among patients with nonvalvular AFib, apixaban was as effective as rivaroxaban in reducing rate of stroke and safer in terms of major bleeding episodes. This head-to-head comparison supports conclusions drawn from indirect comparisons of DOAC trials against warfarin and demonstrates the potential for real-world evidence to fill evidence gaps and reduce uncertainty in both health technology assessment decision-making and clinical guideline development.

Comparison of Dabigatran Versus Warfarin Treatment for the Prevention of New Cerebral Lesions in Valvular Atrial Fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation is one of the most common arrhythmias in the United States and is associated with an increased risk of thromboembolic events.1 The American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology/Heart Rhythm Society guidelines recommend oral anticoagulation with either warfarin or oral non-vitamin K antagonists for patients diagnosed with atrial fibrillation with a high risk for ischemic stroke based on the CHA2DS2-VASc score.2 The recently published article “Comparison of Dabigatran Versus Warfarin Treatment for Prevention of New Cerebral Lesions in Valvular Atrial Fibrillation” discussed the efficacy of...

Direct Oral Anticoagulants in Patients on Chronic Dialysis and Concomitant Atrial Fibrillation: A Common Clinical Impasse
Front Biosci (Schol Ed). 2022 Jul 21;14(3):21. doi: 10.31083/j.fbs1403021.ABSTRACTThe most frequent arrhythmia treated is atrial fibrillation (AF), which necessitates the use of oral anticoagulants (OACs) to reduce the risk of thromboembolism and stroke. Patients with chronic kidney disease are more likely to develop AF, with a 10% frequency among those on chronic dialysis. Warfarin is the most widely prescribed OAC for individuals with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). On the other hand, direct OACs (DOACs) are generally safer than warfarin, with fewer fatal bleeding events and a fixed dose that does not require close inte...
