Temporal Changes in Secondary Prevention and Cardiovascular Outcomes after Revascularization for Peripheral Arterial Disease in Denmark: A Nationwide Cohort Study.
Conclusions: Medical prevention of adverse events has increased considerably over time in patients that underwent revascularization for symptomatic PAD. This increase was accompanied by reductions in all adverse outcomes, except major amputations. PMID: 33300375 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Benefit of Single Antiplatelet Therapy Over Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
Current practice guidelines recommend dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and clopidogrel for 3-6 months followed by lifelong aspirin after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). However, recently published POPular TAVI trial1 and other trials2 –4 that have compared dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) have shown decreased bleeding events and non-inferiority with respect to ischemic stroke, all-cause mortality, and myocardial infarction (MI) amongst patients receiving SAPT.

Benefits and Risks of Prolonged Duration Dual Antiplatelet Therapy (Clopidogrel and Aspirin) after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in High-Risk Patients with Diabetes Mellitus
The efficacy and safety of prolonged (>1-year) dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) duration in high-risk patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) undergoing PCI remain unknown. All patients undergoing PCI at Fuwai hospital between January 2013 and December 2013 were prospectively enrolled into the Fuwai PCI registry. 3696 high-risk diabetics patients with at least one additional atherothrombotic risk factor were screened for inclusion. The primary efficacy outcome was the composite of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, or stroke.

Rivaroxaban and Aspirin in Peripheral Artery Disease Lower Extremity Revascularization: Impact of Concomitant Clopidogrel on Efficacy and Safety.
Conclusions: In the VOYAGER PAD trial, rivaroxaban plus aspirin reduced the risk of adverse cardiovascular and limb events with an early benefit for ALI regardless of clopidogrel use. The safety of rivaroxaban was consistent regardless of clopidogrel use, but with a trend for more ISTH major bleeding with clopidogrel use > 30 days than a shorter duration. These data support the addition of rivaroxaban to aspirin after LER regardless of concomitant clopidogrel with a short (course ≤ 30 days) associated with less bleeding.

Prolonged antithrombotic therapy in patients after acute coronary syndrome: A critical appraisal of current European Society of Cardiology guidelines.
W, Legutko J, Lesiak M, Siller-Matula JM, Nadolny K, Pstrągowski K, Di Somma S, Specchia G, Stępińska J, Tantry U, Tycińska A, Verdoia M, Wojakowski W, Navarese EP Abstract The increased risk of non-cardiovascular death in patients receiving clopidogrel or prasugrel in comparison with the placebo group in the dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) trial in contrast to the decreased risk of cardiovascular death and all-cause death seen in patients treated with low-dose ticagrelor in the EU label population of the PEGASUS-TIMI 54 trial, resulted in inclusion in the 2020 ESC NSTE-ACS guidelines the recommendation for u...

Comparison of effects of triple antithrombotic therapy and dual antiplatelet therapy on long-term outcomes of acute myocardial infarction
This study aimed to compare the long-term outcome of triple antithrombotic therapy (TAT) with that of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after AMI. This was a nationwide, propensity score-matched, case –control study of 186,112 first AMI patients, of whom 2,825 received TAT comprising aspirin, clopidogrel, and warfarin. Propensity score matching in a ratio of 1:4 by age, sex, comorbidities, and treatment was adopted, Finally, 2,813 AMI patients and 11,252 matched controls that were administered TAT and DAPT (aspirin and clopidogrel), respectively, were included in our analysis. The 12-year overall survival rate did not dif...

Rationale and design of a randomized clinical trial to compare two antithrombotic strategies after left atrial appendage occlusion: double antiplatelet therapy vs. apixaban (ADALA study)
ConclusionsConsidering the high risk of both thromboembolic and hemorrhagic events of patients undergoing LAAO, establishment of an appropriate antithrombotic therapy in terms of efficacy and safety after LAAO is of vital importance.Trial registrationEudraCT number: 2018-001013-32

Rationale and Design of the H-REPLACE Study: Safety and Efficacy of LMWH Versus Rivaroxaban in ChinEse Patients HospitaLized with Acute Coronary SyndromE
ConclusionsThe H-REPLACE trial offers an opportunity to assess clinical outcomes of rivaroxaban versus enoxaparin during the acute phase of ACS and may provide an alternative anticoagulation strategy for ACS patients, who missed the primary reperfusion therapy window and before selective revascularization.Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov; NCT03363035.

Comparison Between Ticagrelor and Clopidogrel in Elderly Patients with an Acute Coronary Syndrome: Insights from the SWEDEHEART Registry.
Conclusions: Ticagrelor use among elderly MI patients was associated with higher risk of bleeding and death compared with clopidogrel. A randomized study of ticagrelor vs clopidogrel in the elderly is needed. PMID: 32867508 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Comparison of oral P2Y12 inhibitors in acute coronary syndrome
Baldetti and coworkers1 have performed a network meta-analysis to compare oral P2Y12 inhibitors (clopidogrel, prasugrel, ticagrelor) in acute coronary syndrome. Seven randomised trials, along with some observational studies, were analysed. The main efficacy end-point was a composite of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) at 12 months including cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, and stroke (Table 51). Other end-points of efficacy (e.g. all-cause death at 1 year) were also evaluated.

Influence of Valve Type and Antiplatelet Regimen on Platelet Reactivity After TAVI: Subanalysis of the REAC-TAVI Trial.
CONCLUSIONS: The effect of valve type on PR after TAVI is similar across the spectrum of most transcatheter valves. In our sample, ticagrelor achieved a faster and more effective reduction in PR than clopidogrel in patients with HPR undergoing TAVI, irrespective of valve type.
