Aspirin resistance in patients with ischemic stroke
INTRODUCTION[|]Aspirin is the basic agent of antithrombotic treatment in ischemic cerebrovascular disease (CVD) patients. However several patients don't respond to treatment and therefore aspirin resistance term has been used lately.

The association of four common polymorphisms from four candidate genes (COX-1, COX-2, ITGA2B, ITGA2) with aspirin insensitivity: a meta-analysis. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Evidence is mounting suggesting that a strong genetic component underlies aspirin insensitivity. To generate more information, we aimed to evaluate the association of four common polymorphisms (rs3842787, rs20417, rs201184269, rs1126643) from ...

Aspirin resistance: position paper of the Working Group on Aspirin Resistance [PDF]
Aspirin irreversibly acetylates serine 529 of cyclooxygenase (COX)-1, resulting in inhibition of thromboxane A2 generation by platelets and prostacyclin by endothelial cells [1]. Because platelets lack the synthetic machinery to generate significant amounts of new COX, aspirin-induced COX-1 inhibition lasts for the lifetime of the platelet. In contrast,

Is clopidogrel better than aspirin following breakthrough strokes while on aspirin? A retrospective cohort study. [PDF]
ObjectiveThere is insufficient evidence on which to base a recommendation for optimal antiplatelet therapy following a stroke while on aspirin. The objective was to compare clopidogrel initiation vs aspirin reinitiation for vascular risk reduction among ...

Objective Antiplatelet drugs, such as Aspirin and Clopidogrel (Plavix) are effective in the primary prevention of thromboembolic events. They are commonly used to reduce the risk of recurrence of thromboembolism.

Potentiation of thrombus instability: a contributory mechanism to the effectiveness of antithrombotic medications [PDF]
© The Author(s) 2018The stability of an arterial thrombus, determined by its structure and ability to resist endogenous fibrinolysis, is a major determinant of the extent of infarction that results from coronary or cerebrovascular thrombosis.

The genetics of aspirin resistance
Aspirin is widely used for the prophylaxis of cardiovascular events in patients with cardiovascular risk factors or established atherosclerotic disease. However, despite aspirin treatment, a substantial number of patients experience recurrent events. Such 'aspirin resistance' is generally defined as failure of aspirin to produce an expected biological ...

The prognostic utility of tests of platelet function for the detection of 'aspirin resistance' in patients with established cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease: a systematic review and economic evaluation. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The use of aspirin is well established for secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. However, a proportion of patients suffer repeat cardiovascular events despite being prescribed aspirin treatment.
