Secondary Aortoduodenal Fistula Diagnosed after Repeated Gastrointestinal Bleeding Episodes in a Patient With Prior Aortic Graft Surgery

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Secondary aortoduodenal fistula (sADF) is a rare but life‐threatening complication after aortic graft surgery. Diagnosis is often challenging, particularly when contrast‐enhanced computed tomography (CT) and endoscopy results are inconclusive. We report a case in which diagnosis was challenging due to contrast media allergy and non‐diagnostic ...

Real‐World Edoxaban Concentrations in Older Patients Receiving Reduced‐Dose Regimens

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 119, Issue 3, Page 688-695, March 2026.
Real‐world edoxaban concentrations in older patients receiving reduced‐dose regimens. Low trough concentrations (< 12 ng/mL) were associated with an increased risk of thromboembolism. Among patients meeting the ELDERCARE‐AF criteria, low drug levels were more frequent with the 15 mg regimen than with the 30 mg regimen.

CYP2C19 genotype testing for clopidogrel: A guideline developed by the UK Centre of Excellence in Regulatory Science and Innovation in Pharmacogenomics (CERSI‐PGx)

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 92, Issue 2, Page 329-347, February 2026.
Clopidogrel, an antiplatelet agent, is currently licensed in the United Kingdom for the prevention and treatment of atherothrombotic events in cerebrovascular disease, coronary artery disease and peripheral arterial disease. Clopidogrel requires metabolic activation by the cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP2C19 to be effective.

Long‐Term Secondary Preventive Medication Persistence and Adherence in Young Ischemic Stroke Survivors: A Prospective Single‐Center Cohort Study

Brain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
In a prospective cohort of 226 young ischemic stroke survivors, medication persistence was high (80.1%) over a median 3.9‐year follow‐up, while adherence was moderate. Older age and large artery atherosclerosis predicted better adherence, whereas younger age and lower quality of life were associated with poor adherence.
