Oral anticoagulants for primary prevention, treatment and secondary prevention of venous thromboembolic disease, and for prevention of stroke in atrial fibrillation:systematic review, network meta-analysis and cost-effectiveness analysis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Warfarin is effective for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation (AF), but anticoagulation is underused in clinical care. The risk of venous thromboembolic disease during hospitalisation can be reduced by low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH):

Dabigatran and apolipoprotein B [PDF]
Dabigatran is the first of a series of new direct acting oral anticoagulants that was clinically introduced for the prevention of ischaemic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). In the randomized evaluation of long-term anticoagulation therapy (RE-LY) study, dabigatran was shown to be superior or non-inferior to warfarin in preventing ...

ABSTRACT Background Medications associated with acute liver injury (ALI) are primarily identified by case reports. High‐throughput screening of real‐world data could be leveraged to detect hepatotoxicity signals. Objective To apply tree‐based scan statistics in real‐world data to identify drugs associated with hospitalization for severe ALI among ...

ABSTRACT Background Direct‐acting oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have largely replaced warfarin for stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation, yet their population‐level impact on health outcomes and costs remains unclear. We examined whether the widespread uptake of DOACs was associated with changes in hospitalization rates and costs for ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Although the physiologic alterations seen in obesity often affect the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs, most clinical trials do not consider these aspects specifically for this population. To date, there is no list of potentially inappropriate medications for patients living with obesity. The aim of this study was to
