Efficacy and safety of direct oral anticoagulants vs vitamin K antagonists in patients with atrial fibrillation and end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis: A systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Among AF patients with ESRD on chronic hemodialysis, the risk of ischemic stroke, ischemic stroke or systemic embolism, minor bleeding, major bleeding, and all-cause mortality is similar in patients treated with DOACs compared to VKAs. Given that the meta-analysis of RCTs on gastrointestinal bleeding did not confirm the results of the meta-analysis of the observational studies, it cannot be concluded that gastrointestinal bleeding is lower among DOAC-treated patients.PROTOCOL REGISTRATION: PROSPERO CRD42023391966.PMID:37648582 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejim.2023.08.020

Predictive value of Killip classification in MINOCA patients
CONCLUSIONS: Killip classification confirmed its prognostic impact on short- and long-term outcomes also in a selected MINOCA population, which still craves for a baseline risk stratification.PMID:37596114 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejim.2023.08.011

A new strategy for anticoagulation: The factor XI inhibitors
Eur J Intern Med. 2023 Aug 4:S0953-6205(23)00284-4. doi: 10.1016/j.ejim.2023.08.001. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDirect oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are currently the first-choice therapy for the prevention of cardioembolic events in patients with atrial fibrillation and for the treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE) due to their more favorable efficacy to safety profile in comparison to vitamin K antagonists (VKA). DOACs did not show a clinical benefit when used for in stroke prevention in patients with mechanic or rheumatic valves or in those who underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), in the treatm...

Aortic stiffness plays a role in the discrepancy between mitral valve lesion severity and hemodynamic burden of secondary mitral regurgitation
CONCLUSION: In this HFrEF cohort with sMR, higher PWV was associated with higher-than-expected RF for a given EROA. Aortic stiffness might play a role in the discrepancy between mitral valve lesion severity and sMR hemodynamic burden.PMID:37393182 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejim.2023.06.024
