Stroke Risk Reduction Outweighed Bleeding Risk Increase from Vitamin K Antagonists Treatment among Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation Patients with High Stroke risk and Low Bleeding Risk.
CONCLUSION: In NVAF patients at high risk for stroke and low risk for bleeding, our data confirm the effectiveness of anticoagulation for stroke prevention. The decrease in stroke risk of anticoagulation may outweigh the risk of major bleeding events, particularly among elderly patients. Potential risks of warfarin during initiation warrant attention, especially among patients who stop and start therapy repeatedly. PMID: 28008771 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Modeling the impact of real-world adherence to once-daily (QD) versus twice-daily (BID) non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants on stroke and major bleeding events among non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients.
CONCLUSION: QD NOACs prevented a significant number of strokes and caused no significant increase in MBs compared to BID NOACs which leads to significant net cost savings for NVAF patients in the US. PMID: 30265159 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Impact of prescription patterns of antithrombotic treatment on atrial fibrillation-related ischemic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: The prescription of oral anticoagulants, particularly direct oral anticoagulants, has increased from 2013 to 2019 in our Health Assistance Area. This increase might partially explain the reduction in AF-related IS. PMID: 33326304 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Safety and Efficacy of Triple Antithrombotic Therapy with Dabigatran versus Vitamin K Antagonist in Atrial Fibrillation Patients: A Pilot Study.
Conclusion: Dabigatran at the dose used for stroke prevention appears safer than VKA and maintains a similar efficacy profile, when used with DAPT, in AF patients who have undergone PCI with stenting for ACS. PMID: 30895193 [PubMed - in process]

Improved persistence with non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants compared with warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation: recent Australian experience.
CONCLUSIONS: Persistence with NOAC drugs in patients with AF appears to be superior to warfarin. If continued long-term, this alone will be of clinical importance in the prevention of stroke and death. PMID: 27463735 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Improved persistence with non-vitamin-K oral anticoagulants compared with warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation: recent Australian experience.
CONCLUSIONS: Persistence with NOAC drugs in patients with AF appears to be superior to warfarin. If continued long-term, this alone will be of clinical importance in the prevention of stroke and death. PMID: 27463735 [PubMed - in process]

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

Comparative effectiveness and safety of non-vitamin k antagonist oral anticoagulants and warfarin in older adults with atrial fibrillation and diabetes.
CONCLUSION: Oral anticoagulation therapy with NOACs was found to be more effective than warfarin therapy among older adults with NVAF and comorbid DM. PMID: 33327796 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effectiveness and Safety of Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants in Asian Patients with Atrial Fibrillation and Valvular Heart Disease.
CONCLUSIONS: NOACs had a comparable risk of ischemic stroke and bleeding in patients with AF and VHD, and reduced the risk of venous thromboembolism, intracranial hemorrhage, and mortality, compared to warfarin. Therefore, NOAC is an effective and safe alternative to warfarin in these patients. PMID: 33538623 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on England's national prescriptions of oral vitamin K antagonist (VKA) and direct-acting oral anticoagulants (DOACs): An interrupted time series analysis (January 2019 - February 2021)
Conclusion: The overall oral anticoagulants use in this period was lower than expected, indicating a medical needs gap, possibly due to adherence issues. The potential clinical and logistical consequences warrant further study to identify contributing factors and mitigate avoidable risks.PMID:35582854 | DOI:10.1080/03007995.2022.2078100

Incidence of left atrial abnormalities under treatment with dabigatran, rivaroxaban, and vitamin K antagonists
ConclusionWith respect to the incidence of LA abnormalities, dabigatran and rivaroxaban are not inferior to VKA.

Medium to long-term persistence with non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants in patients with atrial fibrillation: Australian experience.
CONCLUSIONS: Long-term persistence with anticoagulation in patients with AF remains a concern, even with NOACs. Patients initiated to apixaban appear to experience better medium-term persistence compared with rivaroxaban or dabigatran. PMID: 28425296 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Influence of age on the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, efficacy, and safety of rivaroxaban.
CONCLUSION: A favorable clinical profile with rivaroxaban was observed across age subgroups, supporting the premise that dosing in older adults does not necessitate adjustment. However, it is prudent that a cautious and individualized approach is taken for treatment with any anticoagulant in older adults. PMID: 29932775 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A rapid evidence assessment of bleed-related healthcare resource utilization in publications reporting the use of direct oral anticoagulants for non-valvular atrial fibrillation.
CONCLUSIONS: The limited available evidence for HRU burden among patients receiving oral anticoagulation for NVAF suggests that DOACs (particularly apixaban and dabigatran) offer some degree of benefit in terms of HRU outcomes, compared with warfarin. Further work is required to understand HRU outcomes in patients receiving DOACs. PMID: 30380959 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
