Effectiveness and Safety of Apixaban, Dabigatran, and Rivaroxaban Versus Warfarin in Patients With Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation and Previous Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—Results from our study of the 3 NOACs versus warfarin in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation patients with a previous history of stroke/transient ischemic attack are relatively consistent with their respective phase III trials and previous stroke/transient ischemic attack subgroup analyses. All NOACs seemed no worse than warfarin in respect to ischemic stroke, ICH, or major bleeding risk.

Cerebral Microbleeds in Murine Amyloid Angiopathy Basic Sciences
Conclusions—Anticoagulation with warfarin or dabigatran for 3 to 4 months does not promote the formation of CMBs in aged APP23 mice. Nevertheless, warfarin but not dabigatran is associated with a higher risk of extensive intracerebral hemorrhage, suggesting that this model may allow preclinical safety evaluation of antithrombotic therapies.

Thrombocytopenia induced by dabigatran: two case reports
Vitamin K inhibitors (e.g. warfarin) and indirect thrombin inhibitors (e.g. heparin) are widely used to prevent thromboembolic disorders (e.g. myocardial infarction, venous thromboembolism, and stroke). These ...

Severe Vasospasm of the Middle Cerebral Artery after Mechanical Thrombectomy Due to Infective Endocarditis: An Autopsy Case
We describe a case of middle cerebral artery occlusion due to IE, which caused severe vasospasm and reocclusion after mechanical thrombectomy (MT). We present the pathologic findings of the occluded middle cerebral artery and investigate the precautions to be taken while performing MT due to IE. A 72-year-old man with atrial fibrillation treated with dabigatran presented with right hemiparesis and aphasia.

Intravenous Fibrinolysis in Ischemic Stroke of Large Vessel after Reversing Effect of Dabigatran with Idarucizumab
We present our experience regarding the use of intravenous tissue plasminogen activator in a patient with ischemic stroke due to complete occlusion of the left middle cerebral artery after blocking the effect of dabigatran with idarucizumab and whose result was an almost total improvement of the neurologic deficit.

Systemic Thrombolysis in Acute Ischemic Stroke after Dabigatran Etexilate Reversal with Idarucizumab —A Case Report
Idarucizumab is a reversal agent for dabigatran etexilate. By reversing the anticoagulating effect of dabigatran etexilate with idarucizumab (Praxbind), patients presenting with an acute ischemic stroke can now be eligible for thrombolysis.

Intravenous Thrombolysis in Anticoagulated and Thrombocytopenic Ischemic Stroke Patients Does Not Increase the Risk of Intracerebral Hemorrhage (P4.271)
Conclusions:These data suggest that IV rt-PA can be safely administered in coagulopathic and thrombocytopenic patients. Although rates of sICH and mortality were similar to the NINDS cohort, caution may be needed to identify certain hemorrhagic risk factors. Routine exclusion of anticoagulated or thrombocytopenic patients is not supported and the use of IV rt-PA in these patients may increase the eligibility for acute stroke therapy, particularly at institutions where IA therapy is unavailable.Disclosure: Dr. Barazangi has received personal compensation for activities with Genentech. Dr. Sorensen has nothing to disclose. D...

Difference of Clinical Condition of Ischemic Stroke between Warfarin and Direct Oral Anticoagulants (P6.285)
Conclusions:Ischemic lesion size may be smaller in DOACs compared with warfarin. There is a possibility that direct thrombin inhibitor may provide better outcome compared with other anticoagulants. Larger prospective study should be conducted to confirm these findings.Disclosure: Dr. Nakase has nothing to disclose. Dr. Moroi has nothing to disclose. Dr. Ishikawa has nothing to disclose.

Acute Stroke Despite Dabigatran Anticoagulation Treated with Idarucizumab and Intravenous Tissue Plasminogen Activator
Dabigatran is a direct thrombin inhibitor used to reduce the risk of stroke in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. For patients who present with an acute stroke despite dabigatran therapy, clinical data on the use of intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV-tPA) is limited. There is an anticipated increased risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) when using IV-tPA in patients on dabigatran therapy. In 2015, the humanized monoclonal antibody fragment idarucizumab was approved for rapid (minutes) reversal of anticoagulant effects of dabigatran.

Rivaroxaban Versus Dabigatran or Warfarin in Real-World Studies of Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—In this systematic review and meta-analysis, rivaroxaban was as effective as dabigatran, but was more effective than warfarin for the prevention of stroke/thromboembolism in atrial fibrillation patients. Major bleeding risk was significantly higher with rivaroxaban than with dabigatran, as was all-cause mortality and gastrointestinal bleeding. Rivaroxaban was comparable to warfarin for major bleeding, with an increased risk in gastrointestinal bleeding and decreased risk of intracranial hemorrhage.

Comparison of the cost-utility of direct oral anticoagulants for the prevention of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation in Spain.
CONCLUSIONS: All three direct anticoagulants are cost-effective against acenocoumarol. Dabigatran is economically dominant over rivaroxaban and apixaban in the Spanish setting, as it is more effective and cheaper. PMID: 28272725 [PubMed - in process]
