Aspirin Instead of Oral Anticoagulant Prescription in Atrial Fibrillation Patients at Risk for Stroke
ConclusionsIn a large, real-world cardiac outpatient population of AF patients with a moderate to high risk of stroke, more than 1 in 3 were treated with aspirin alone without OAC. Specific patient characteristics predicted prescription of aspirin therapy over OAC.

Dual Antiplatelet Therapy for Perioperative Myocardial Infarction Following CABG Surgery
Conclusion One-quarter of CABG patients who had perioperative MI were treated with DAPT. DAPT was not associated with a difference in MI, stroke, or mortality at 30 days, but was associated with fewer re-hospitalizations. Further studies are needed to determine the optimal antiplatelet regimen following perioperative MI. What is already known about this subject? Perioperative myocardial infarction portends poor outcome but optimal management is currently unclear. While dual antiplatelet therapy is standard of care for acute coronary syndrome, its role in perioperative myocardial infarction is unknown. What does this study ...

Ticagrelor with and without aspirin in patients with a prior coronary artery bypass graft undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: the TWILIGHT-CABG study
CONCLUSIONS: In high-risk patients with prior CABG, ticagrelor monotherapy reduced bleeding without compromising ischaemic outcomes compared with ticagrelor plus aspirin.PMID:35979636 | DOI:10.4244/EIJ-D-22-00319

Cost-Effectiveness of 12-Month Treatment With Ticagrelor Compared With Clopidogrel in the Management of Acute Coronary Syndromes.
CONCLUSIONS: When assessed from the perspective of the Australian health care system, ticagrelor is likely to be cost-effective compared with clopidogrel in preventing downstream morbidity and mortality associated with ACS.

232 * early anticoagulation therapy after bioprosthetic aortic valve implantation: comparing warfarin versus aspirin
Conclusions: This is to date the largest randomized trial comparing warfarin to aspirin as early anticoagulation therapy after implantation of bioprosthetic aortic valves. The results are not conclusive, but aspirin therapy seems as safe as warfarin therapy, and with significantly fewer gastrointestinal bleeding events, three months after surgery.

Eptifibatide infusion versus placebo in high risk patients with non-st segment elevation acute coronary syndromes managed with urgent coronary artery bypass graft surgery. a prospective multicenter randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial.
CONCLUSION: Preoperative use of eptifibatide vs. placebo is linked to significantly reduced 12--month MACCE rate in patients with NSTE--ACS requiring urgent CABG, while it simultaneously seems not to confer a greater risk of postoperative bleeding.

Simultaneous Carotid Artery Stenting and Heart Surgery: Expanded Experience of Hybrid Surgical Procedures
Conclusions Same-day hybrid approach appeared safe in terms of early and long-term results not only for CAS and isolated CABG but also for CAS and noncoronary isolated procedures. In complex cases, the rate of stroke and myocardial infarction seemed low; in-hospital mortality, as expected, was higher. Long-term survival appeared similarly satisfactory, thus confirming the hybrid approach as a valid therapeutic option for all patients with significant internal carotid artery stenosis associated with coronary and other cardiac lesions, at least for noncomplex cases.

Cardiovascular highlights from non-cardiology journals
Pre-operative aspirin does not influence CABG outcomes Aspirin is a common therapy for risk reduction among patients with coronary artery disease. However, among patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery, the benefits of aspirin on the risk of myocardial infarction and stroke may be outweighed by perioperative bleeding risk. To address this question, the ATACAS trial randomized 2100 patients to either receive 100 mg aspirin daily or matching placebo for 4 days immediately prior to the operation with all patients resuming aspirin within 24 hours of their bypass surgery. The primary outcome was a composite of d...

Management and clinical outcome of stable coronary artery disease in Austria : Results from 5 years of the CLARIFY registry.
CONCLUSION: Characteristics of Austrian outpatients with stable CAD corresponded to those of patients with CAD in other developed countries. Medical treatments following the recommendations of the European guidelines were prescribed in the majority of patients; however, recommended goals of life style interventions including a heart rate less than 60 bpm and general risk factor management were not achieved by a high proportion of patients. Heart rate control and life style changes remain unmet needs of cardiovascular care in Austria.

Safety outcomes of anti-platelet therapy post coronary artery bypass graft surgery: A systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomized control trials
CONCLUSION: No significant difference was found between monotherapy or dual-antiplatelet therapy for the major bleeding risk safety outcome, however DAPT was found to have a significantly higher rate of minor bleeding complications post-CABG. DAPT should be considered as the antiplatelet modality of choice post-CABG.PMID:36803180 | DOI:10.1177/02676591231159513
