RE-LY-trial-publication-10-year-anniversary
Anniversary of the pivotal RE-LY ® trial marks a decade of innovation for stroke prevention in AF patients10 years ago, RE-LY ® marked the first time a randomised trial showed that a non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant (NOAC) was safer and at least as effective as warfarin for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation (SPAF)1-3First major scientific advancement in anticoagulation care in over fifty yearsOver 100,000 patients have been included in the RE-VOLUTION study programme worldwide,4 and research into dabigatran etexilate continues

Does X(a) mark the spot? An indirect mixed treatment comparison of Xa inhibitors compared to warfarin for patients with Atrial Fibrillation
ConclusionsThe Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants constitute a new and promising category in the field of atrial fibrillation, even in the context of uncertainty, which an indirect comparison yields.

Impact of methodological choices on a meta-analysis of real-world evidence comparing non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants with vitamin K antagonists for the treatment of patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.
Conclusions Sensitivity analyses showed the impact of similar assumptions was different depending on the outcome, and the drug considered. The development of recommendations and guidelines for the inclusion of RWE in meta-analyses could prove useful in evaluating the effectiveness of health care interventions.

Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants in patients with atrial fibrillation in secondary stroke and systemic embolism prevention.
CONCLUSIONS: Nearly all hospitalized patients with AF received OAC in the secondary prevention of thromboembolic complications. NOACs were used for secondary prevention of stroke among patients with AF in patients with fewer comorbidities. PMID: 31313276 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Appropriateness of dabigatran dosing in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF): A retrospective study conducted in a tertiary care university hospital in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia
ConclusionThis study revealed inappropriate prescription of reduced doses of dabigatran in a large number of patients. Age was identified as the main driving factor for underdosing. Physicians’ and pharmacists’ awareness regarding this type of high-risk medication should be improved to ensure appropriate and safe use of this commonly used drug.

Preventable Cases of Oral Anticoagulant-Induced Bleeding: Data From the Spontaneous Reporting System
Conclusion: Our findings describe the most reported risk factors for preventability of oral anticoagulant-induced bleedings. These factors may be useful for targeting interventions to improve pharmacovigilance activities in our regional territory and to reduce the burden of medication errors and inappropriate prescription. Introduction Oral anticoagulant therapy is widely used for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with atrial fibrillation, or for the prevention and treatment of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism (Raj et al., 1994; Monaco et al., 2017). Oral anticoagulants can be di...

Apixaban for prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation in France: The PAROS cross-sectional study of routine clinical practice.
CONCLUSIONS: Initiation of apixaban versus NOACs was more common among patients with increased age, higher bleeding risk and decreased renal function, whereas initiation of apixaban versus VKAs was more common among patients with lower bleeding risk and better renal function.

The Direct Thrombin Inhibitors Dabigatran and Lepirudin Inhibit GPIb α-Mediated Platelet Aggregation.
The Direct Thrombin Inhibitors Dabigatran and Lepirudin Inhibit GPIbα-Mediated Platelet Aggregation. Thromb Haemost. 2019 Apr 20;: Authors: Trabold K, Makhoul S, Gambaryan S, van Ryn J, Walter U, Jurk K Abstract The direct thrombin inhibitor (DTI) dabigatran is a non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. In addition to its anti-thrombotic efficacy, dabigatran has been suggested to exert some pro-thrombotic effect due to fostering the ligation of thrombin to its high affinity platelet receptor glyco...

Direct oral anticoagulants in treatment of cerebral venous thrombosis: a systematic review protocol
DiscussionCurrent guidelines in the treatment of cerebral vein thrombosis dating back to 2011 from the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association endorse the utility of anticoagulation for the treatment of cerebral vein thrombosis; however, they did not support the use of direct oral anticoagulants. Updated guidelines from the European Stroke Organization, endorsed by the European Academy of Neurology in 2017, also refute utilization of direct oral anticoagulants due to a lack of evidence. There have been nearly 10  years of experience with direct oral anticoagulants in the treatment of venous thrombosis and ...

Number needed to treat based on real-world evidence for non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants versus vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants in stroke prevention in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.
CONCLUSIONS: The NNT calculation, when approached and interpreted properly, is a practical measure of the effectiveness of a treatment. The calculation based on HRs showed that NOACs are safe and effective alternatives to VKAs in real life. PMID: 30969801 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Inappropriate non-vitamin  K antagonist oral anticoagulants prescriptions: be cautious with dose reductions.
CONCLUSION: An incorrect prescription occurred more often in the reduced-dose NOAC group. Clinical parameters such as renal function are often unknown whilst these are essential to determine the right NOAC and dose. PMID: 30949972 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation: A network meta-analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: This study adds an attempt for treatment ranking of both efficacy and safety outcomes. Future trials comparing directly NOACs are needed in order to provide conclusive proofs for these results and not only circumstantial evidence offered by a network meta-analysis.
