Histopathological and immunohistochemical study of periodontal changes in chronic smokers
Rom J Morphol Embryol. 2021 Jan-Mar;62(1):209-217. doi: 10.47162/RJME.62.1.20.ABSTRACTPeriodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory, multifactorial condition, that, in the absence of an early and adequate treatment, may lead to a progressive damaging of the alveolar tissues that support the teeth (periodontal ligament, cement and alveolar bone) followed by teeth mobility and, subsequently, their loss. Periodontal disease is one of the most common inflammatory disease affecting adult individuals all over the world, being considered a real worldwide pandemic. This disease may influence the progression of certain systemic dis...

ERLEADA ® (apalutamide) Oral Presentations Demonstrate Importance of Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) as Key Efficacy Indicator and Show Strong Patient Adherence Rates
September 11, 2021 (RARITAN, N.J.) – The Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson today announced new data demonstrating robust prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response and strong adherence rates in patients with non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC) treated with ERLEADA® (apalutamide) in the real-world clinical setting. The strong PSA response was also seen in a separate post-hoc analysis that showed a correlation between rapid and deep PSA response and prolonged survival in both metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) and nmCRPC. The post-hoc analysis also suppor...

Therapeutic efficacy of heparin and direct factor Xa inhibitors in cancer-associated cryptogenic ischemic stroke with venous thromboembolism
Anticoagulation therapy, especially using heparin or recently developed oral direct factor Xa inhibitors (DiXals), is recommended as first-line treatment for cancer-related venous thromboembolism (VTE). However, the preventive efficacy of these anticoagulants for cancer-associated ischemic stroke is still unknown. We retrospectively investigated the efficacy of subcutaneous unfractionated heparin (UFH) and DiXals for preventing the recurrence of cancer-associated cryptogenic ischemic stroke with VTE.

Direct oral anticoagulant use in special populations
Purpose of review The pivotal phase III trials demonstrating efficacy and safety of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in the treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE) or nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) excluded patients with important and common comorbidities, including obesity, advanced chronic kidney disease, cirrhosis, cancer and antiphospholipid antibody syndrome. Despite the lack of large prospective randomized control trials in these patient populations, the use of DOACs has led to a wealth of efficacy and safety data within these groups. Recent findings Retrospective studies, meta-analyses, nation...

Anticoagulation in special patient populations with atrial fibrillation
Herz. 2021 Jul 5. doi: 10.1007/s00059-021-05042-1. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAnticoagulation in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) should be guided by considerations of the risk of thromboembolism, stroke, and bleeding as well as the patient's preference. Well-recognized scores have been developed to help the clinician in daily risk assessment, but there are several special patient populations for whom scores are not developed or validated. Furthermore, these patients were not adequately represented in the pivotal randomized trials for non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs). In patients with cancer, t...

Cardiovascular Toxicity of Androgen Deprivation Therapy
AbstractPurpose of ReviewAndrogen deprivation therapy (ADT) is the standard of care for the treatment of advanced prostate cancer (PC). ADT, particularly with GnRH agonists, leads to increased risk of cardiovascular disease, including myocardial infarction, hypertension, and stroke. This review discusses the options of ADT, the mechanism of ADT-associated cardiovascular side effects, and potential benefit by using GnRH antagonists.Recent FindingsGnRH antagonists have relatively less cardiovascular adverse effects compared to GnRH agonists. We highlight on a recently published phase III clinical trial on the oral GnRH antag...

Optimal Management of Anticoagulation Therapy in Asian Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
Circ J. 2021 Jun 5. doi: 10.1253/circj.CJ-21-0399. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTStroke prevention is the cornerstone of management of atrial fibrillation (AF), and non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) are commonly prescribed. Because routine monitoring of anticoagulant effects of NOACs is not necessary, appropriate dosing following the criteria of each NOACs defined in pivotal randomized trials is important. Real-world data demonstrate that underdosing NOACs is associated with a higher risk of ischemic stroke without a lower risk of major bleeding. Furthermore, renal function of AF patients should be asses...
