Antiplatelet Agents and Oral Anticoagulant Use in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation and Carotid Artery Disease After First-Time Ischaemic Stroke
CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest for patients with AF and carotid artery disease after ischaemic stroke, receiving NOACs without APA is associated with a lower risk of major bleeding with no negative impact on recurrent stroke or mortality. Evidence from randomised trials is needed to confirm this finding.PMID:36692658 | DOI:10.1007/s10557-023-07433-4

Stroke in Atrial Fibrillation and Other Atrial Dysrhythmias
AbstractPurpose of ReviewAtrial fibrillation (AF) is a major risk factor for systemic embolism and ischaemic stroke. Furthermore, AF-related strokes are associated with higher mortality, greater disability, longer hospital stays and lower rates of hospital discharge than strokes caused by other reasons. The aim of this review to summarise the existing evidence on the association of AF with ischemic stroke and provide insights on the pathophysiological mechanisms and the clinical management of patients with AF in order to reduce the burden of ischemic stroke.Recent FindingsBeyond Virchow ’s triad, several pathophysiologic...

Oral Anticoagulation and the Incidence of Stroke Associated with Atrial Fibrillation in Mainland Portugal: A Modelling Study
CONCLUSION: The use of oral anticoagulation was associated with a reduced incidence of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation in mainland Portugal. This reduction was more relevant in the period between 2016 and 2018, and is probably related with the introduction of the novel oral anticoagulants.PMID:37429703 | DOI:10.20344/amp.19255

Non-vitamin K oral anticoagulant drugs for stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation and chronic kidney disease.
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are disorders with increasing prevalence. The presence of CKD increases the risk of incident AF and vice versa, and the presence of AF may accelerate CKD progression. Nearly a third of patients with established CKD also have AF, whilst half of AF patients may have some degree of renal dysfunction. Both AF and CKD are associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, including significantly increased risk of stroke or systemic embolism. Oral anticoagulant therapy (OAC), either with vitamin K antagonists or with non-vitamin K oral ant...

Effectiveness and Safety of Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants in Asian Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—In real-world practice among a high-risk Asian atrial fibrillation population, all 3 NOACs demonstrated similar risk of ischemic stroke and lower risk of ICH compared with warfarin. All-cause mortality was significantly lower only with dabigatran and apixaban.

Stroke Prevention with Oral Anticoagulants: Summary of the Evidence and Efficacy Measures as an Aid to Treatment Choices
AbstractAtrial fibrillation (AF) is an established risk factor for a first or recurrent stroke. Despite proven efficacy in preventing stroke in patients with AF, warfarin is underused, partly due to safety concerns. Recent randomized trials have shown that non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) such as dabigatran (a direct thrombin inhibitor) and apixaban, edoxaban, and rivaroxaban (factor Xa inhibitors) are not only non-inferior or superior to warfarin but also demonstrate a decreased risk of cerebrovascular bleeding among patients with AF and moderate to high risk of stroke. Additionally, NOACs have an adva...

Is the prescription right? A review of non-vitamin K antagonist anticoagulant (NOAC) prescriptions in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. Safe prescribing in atrial fibrillation and evaluation of non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants in stroke prevention (SAFE-NOACS) group
ConclusionOur study highlights significant inaccuracies in NOAC prescribing. Patients commenced on NOACs should be assessed and followed up in a multidisciplinary AF clinic to ensure safe and effective prescribing and stroke prevention.

Stroke prevention, 1-year clinical outcomes and healthcare resource utilization in patients with atrial fibrillation in France: Data from the GARFIELD-AF registry.
CONCLUSIONS: Patients enrolled in France had higher rates of mortality and stroke/systemic embolism than in GARFIELD-AF overall. Conversely, the risk of major bleeding was not higher. PMID: 29861295 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Ischemic stroke in patients previously anticoagulated for non-valvular atrial fibrillation: Why does it happen?
ConclusionIn the majority of patients, stroke occurrence despite chronic anticoagulation appears to be explained by subtherapeutic dosage, poor treatment adherence or non-cardioembolic etiology, and not by inefficacy of the anticoagulants.ResumoIntroduçãoOs anticoagulantes orais demonstraram ser altamente eficazes na prevenção do acidente vascular cerebral (AVC) associado a fibrilhação auricular (FA). A ocorrência de AVC apesar da hipocoagulação oral não é expectável, existindo escassa informação sobre os mecanismos responsáveis pela sua ocorrência. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar possíveis mecanismos ...

Recurrent ischemic stroke in atrial fibrillation with non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulation
Publication date: Available online 28 March 2019Source: Journal of Clinical NeuroscienceAuthor(s): Ho Geol Woo, Inyoung Chung, Dong Seok Gwak, Baik Kyun Kim, Beom Joon Kim, Hee-Joon Bae, Moon-Ku HanAbstractThe etiology or rate of recurrent ischemic stroke according to dosing methods including drug adherence in patients taking non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) remain uncertain. We investigated the association between dosing methods including drug adherence achieved with NOACs and the presence of major vessel occlusion (MVO) in patients with ischemic stroke with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF).

Evaluation of stroke incidence with duty ‐cycled multielectrode‐phased radiofrequency ablation of persistent atrial fibrillation results of the VICTORY AF Study
ConclusionsVICTORY AF demonstrated a 1.6% incidence of stroke in PersAF undergoing ablation with a phased RF system which did not meet statistical confidence due to poor enrollment. The secondary outcomes suggest comparable efficacy to phased RF in the tailored treatment of permanent AF trial. Rigorous clinical evaluation of the stroke risk of new AF ablation technologies as well as restriction to Vitamin K antagonist anticoagulation appears to be unachievable goals in a clinical multicenter IDE trial of AF ablation in the current era.
