Associations of Apixaban Dose With Safety and Effectiveness Outcomes in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Severe Chronic Kidney Disease
CONCLUSIONS: Compared with 2.5 mg, use of 5 mg apixaban was associated with a higher risk of bleeding in patients with atrial fibrillation and severe chronic kidney disease, with no difference in the risk of stroke/systemic embolism or death, supporting the apixaban dosing recommendations on the basis of kidney function by the European Medicines Agency, which differ from those issued by the US Food and Drug Administration.PMID:37681341 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.123.065614

Sexual dimorphism in peripheral blood cell characteristics linked to recanalization success of endovascular thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke
J Thromb Thrombolysis. 2023 Aug 18. doi: 10.1007/s11239-023-02881-z. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEndovascular thrombectomy (EVT) success to treat acute ischemic stroke varies with factors like stroke etiology and clot composition, which can differ between sexes. We studied if sex-specific blood cell characteristics (BCCs) are related to recanalization success. We analyzed electronic health records of 333 EVT patients from a single intervention center, and extracted 71 BCCs from the Sapphire flow cytometry analyzer. Through Sparse Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis, incorporating cross-validation and stability se...

Can a best practice advisory improve anticoagulation prescribing to reduce stroke risk in patients with atrial fibrillation?
CONCLUSIONS: A BPA added to an AF decision support tool improved anticoagulation therapy among AF patients in a primary care academic health system setting.PMID:37579873 | DOI:10.1016/j.jjcc.2023.08.005

Use of neuromuscular blockade for neck dissection and association with iatrogenic nerve injury
CONCLUSIONS: In this study, use of neuromuscular blockade intraoperatively during neck dissection was not associated with increased rates of iatrogenic cranial nerve injury. While this investigation provides early support for safe use of neuromuscular blockade during neck dissection, future investigation with greater power remains necessary.PMID:37507689 | DOI:10.1186/s12871-023-02217-7

Systolic blood pressure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and cardiovascular risk
Conclusion Using deep learning for modelling EHR, we identified a monotonic association between SBP and risk of cardiovascular events in patients with COPD.

A Real-World Evaluation of Primary Medication Nonadherence in Patients with Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation Prescribed Oral Anticoagulants in the United States
ConclusionsMore than one-quarter of patients experienced PMN within 30 days of their initial prescription order. This rate decreased over a longer period, suggesting a delay in fills. Understanding the factors associated with PMN is warranted to develop effective interventions for improving OAC treatment rates in NVAF.

Rivaroxaban for Prevention of Thrombotic Events, Hospitalization, and Death in Outpatients With COVID-19: A Randomized Clinical Trial
CONCLUSIONS: The study was terminated prematurely after enrollment of 32% of planned accrual because of recruitment challenges and lower-than-expected event rate. Rivaroxaban prescribed for 35 days in nonhospitalized patients with symptomatic COVID-19 at risk for thrombosis did not appear to reduce a composite end point of venous and arterial thrombotic events, hospitalization, and death.REGISTRATION: URL: https://www.CLINICALTRIALS: gov; Unique identifier: NCT04508023.PMID:37154020 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.123.063901
