Efficacy and safety of dual antiplatelet therapy after percutaneous coronary drug-eluting stenting: A network meta-analysis
Conclusions: S-DAPT + P2Y12 has the lowest bleeding risk, while L-DAPT has the highest bleeding risk. In the outcome of MI, stent thrombosis, and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular adverse events, L-DAPT has the best efficacy. In the outcome of stroke and all-cause mortality, the 4 interventions were equally effective.

Efficacy and safety of ticagrelor monotherapy in patients following percutaneous coronary intervention: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Background: We aimed to systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety ticagrelor monotherapy following percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods: Online databases were searched for relevant studies (published between the years 2015 and 2020) comparing 1-month Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) followed by 23-month ticagrelor monotherapy with 12-month DAPT followed by 12-month aspirin monotherapy following percutaneous coronary intervention. Primary outcomes assessed efficacy whereas secondary outcomes assessed safety. Odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) based on a random effect model were calc...

Dual therapy with an oral non-vitamin K antagonist and a P2Y12 inhibitor vs triple therapy with aspirin, a P2Y12 inhibitor and a vitamin K antagonist for the treatment of diabetes mellitus patients with co-existing atrial fibrillation following percutaneous coronary intervention: A meta-analysis
Conclusions: DT with a NOAC and a P2Y12 inhibitor was associated with significantly less bleeding events without increasing the adverse cardiovascular outcomes when compared to TT with aspirin, a P2Y12 inhibitor and a Vitamin K antagonist for the treatment of DM patients with co-existing AF following PCI. Hence, DT is comparable in efficacy, but safer compared to TT. This interesting hypothesis will have to be confirmed in future studies.

Two cases of rt-PA with dual antiplatelet therapies with capsular warning syndrome
Rationale: Capsular warning syndrome (CWS) is a term to describe stereotyped lacunar transient ischemic attacks (TIAs). Patients with CWS are at high risk of developing completed stroke. However, the exact pathophysiology of CWS is still unclear, and there is no conclusive clinical strategy for CWS patients. Patient symptoms: Two cases of middle-aged men with hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes mellitus presented with fluctuating right-sided weakness, numbness, and dysarthria. Diagnoses: These two patients were diagnosed with CWS. Interventions: Recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-P...

Acute ischemic stroke due to unruptured small aneurysm of internal carotid artery: A case report
Rationale: Intracranial small aneurysm is a rare cause of ischemic stroke, and been described only in sparse case reports. The exact pathophysiology, treatment strategies, and prognosis remain incompletely understood. Patient concerns: A 42-year-old man presented with an acute onset weakness of the right limbs. Diagnoses: Neuroimaging evaluation confirmed a diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke and left internal carotid artery (ICA) small aneurysm. Interventions: The patient underwent oral anti-platelet therapy (100 mg aspirin daily). Outcomes: The patient recovered to normal status within 4 weeks following an...

An investigation into the impact of enteric coated of aspirin in patients with newly diagnosed ischemic stroke (ECASIS)
Discussion: This trial will determine potential differences in the efficacy of EC Aspirin and plain Aspirin on the Thromboxane B2 level. Additionally, it will ascertain the tolerability and safety of both formulations of Aspirin in patients with newly diagnosed ischemic stroke. These results will either support the current notion of no difference between the two formulations. However, if a difference is found, this will invite for future trials exploring clinical outcomes occurrence between various formulations. Clinical trial registration: Clinicaltrials.gov NCT04330872 registered on April 2, 2020

Comparison between thromboelastography and the conventional coagulation test in detecting effects of antiplatelet agents after endovascular treatments in acute ischemic stroke patients: A STROBE-compliant study
This study was designed to provide initial data to compare thromboelastography (TEG) with the conventional coagulation test (CCT) to analyze the coagulation function of antiplatelet drugs in such patients. The present retrospective cohort study included 240 patients who received endovascular therapy from September 2012 to December 2017. The baseline and clinical characteristics of these patients were collected with respect to TEG (parameters: R, K, maximal amplitude (MA), and α angle) and CCT (parameters: PT, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen (FIB), international normalized ratio (INR), and platele...

r-tPA with loading dose of clopidogrel and aspirin therapies for capsular warning syndrome attributed to middle cerebral artery atherosclerotic stenosis: A CARE-compliant case report
Rationale: The capsular warning syndrome (CWS) is a rare and special type of transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) syndrome. The pathophysiology of CWS is very complicate, and intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) is rare cause. Moreover, the effective and standard therapy has not yet been established. Patient concerns: A 47-year-old man experienced repeated and exacerbated TIAs of right hemiparesis and dysarthria. Fourteen hours after the first episode of TIAs, he developed more severe right hemiparesis and dysarthria, the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score was 12 points, and did not recover i...

Ischemic stroke in the combined territories of the septum pellucidum and the cingulate gyrus: A case report and literature review
Conclusions: Infarction in the septum pellucidum and cingulate gyrus is rare and has atypical clinical manifestations. Physical examination may not yield obvious positive signs. False-negative computed tomography findings of the head may result in misdiagnosis. Thus, it is necessary to perform whole-brain magnetic resonance imaging in time. Moreover, ScA protection should be paid attention to during surgery for anterior communicating artery aneurysm.

Association of early loss of primary functional patency of arteriovenous access with mortality in incident hemodialysis patients: A nationwide population-based observational study
The long-term survival and life quality of hemodialysis (HD) patients depend on adequacy of dialysis via a well-functioning vascular access. Loss of primary functional patency (PFP) of an arteriovenous access (AVA) eventually happens in HD patients. The association between time to loss of PFP of AVAs and mortality in HD patients remains unclear. The retrospective nationwide population-based cohort study compared the hazards of mortality with time to loss of PFP. We enrolled 1618 adult incident HD patients who received HD via AVAs for at least 90 days between January 1, 2001 and December 31, 2013. They were divided into ear...
