Association between oral anticoagulants and COVID-19-related outcomes: a population-based cohort study
CONCLUSION: Among those at low baseline stroke risk, people receiving OACs had a lower risk of testing positive for SARS-CoV-2 and severe COVID-19 outcomes than non-users; this might be explained by a causal effect of OACs in preventing severe COVID-19 outcomes or unmeasured confounding, including more cautious behaviours leading to reduced infection risk.PMID:35440465 | DOI:10.3399/BJGP.2021.0689

Influence of atrial fibrillation subtypes on anticoagulant therapy in a high-risk older population: the FAI project
CONCLUSIONS: In a population-based survey, AF pattern was an independent predictor of OAC treatment. Paroxysmal AF is still perceived as carrying a lower risk of vascular events.PMID:35543807 | DOI:10.1007/s40520-022-02140-w

Cohort profile: Outcomes & Multi-morbidity In Type 2 diabetes (OMIT) - a national registry-based observational cohort with focus on care and treatment of key high-risk groups in Norway
Purpose
The ‘Outcomes & Multi-morbidity in Type 2 Diabetes’ (OMIT) is an observational registry-based cohort of Norwegian patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) established to study high-risk groups often omitted from randomised clinical trials.
Participants
The OMIT cohort includes 57 572 patients with T2D identified via linkage of Norwegian Diabetes Register for Adults and the Rogaland-Oslo-Salten-Akershus-Hordaland study, both offering data on clinical patient characteristics and drug prescriptions. Subsequently these data are further linked to the Norwegian Prescription Database for dispensed medications,...

Clinical code usage in UK general practice: a cohort study exploring 18 conditions over 14 years
Conclusions
This is an under-reported research area and the findings suggest the codes’ usage diversity for most conditions remained overall stable throughout the study period. Generated mental health code lists can last for a long time unlike cardiometabolic conditions and cancer. Adopting more consistent and less diverse coding would help improve data quality in primary care. Future research is needed following the transfer to the Systematised Nomenclature of Medicine Clinical Terms (SNOMED CT) coding.

How is atrial fibrillation detected in everyday healthcare? Results of a Dutch cohort study
CONCLUSION: Diagnosing AF is a multidisciplinary process. The irregular heartbeat was most often detected by the GP, but cardiologists diagnosed most cases. One-third of all newly diagnosed AF was silent.PMID:36048351 | DOI:10.1007/s12471-022-01719-2
