Warfarin use and vestibular dysfunction insights from NHANES data, network pharmacology, Mendelian randomization, and molecular docking [PDF]
Despite numerous anticoagulants available, warfarin is widely used due to its efficacy and cost-effectiveness in treating thromboembolic diseases. However, its potential impact on vestibular function remains unexplored.

Number needed to treat for net clinical benefit of oral anticoagulants in Asian patients with atrial fibrillation [PDF]
Background Oral anticoagulants (OAC) can reduce ischemic stroke/systemic embolism (SSE) in patients with non‐valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) while increasing the risk of major bleeding. We aimed to analyze the number needed to treat for the net benefit

Optimizing Warfarin Dosing using Deep Reinforcement Learning [PDF]
Warfarin is a widely used anticoagulant, and has a narrow therapeutic range. Dosing of warfarin should be individualized, since slight overdosing or underdosing can have catastrophic or even fatal consequences. Despite much research on warfarin dosing, current dosing protocols do not live up to expectations, especially for patients sensitive to ...

A Case Of Late-onset Warfarin Induced Skin Necrosis Resulting In Mortality
Warfarin-induced skin necrosis is a rare complication of warfarin therapy and is associated with high mortality. Here, we present a case of warfarin-induced skin necrosis, that was fatal in a 53-year-old female patient who was started on warfarin ...

Rivaroxaban versus warfarin in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation.
BACKGROUND The use of warfarin reduces the rate of ischemic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation but requires frequent monitoring and dose adjustment.

Key Points The primary outcome, stroke, occurred in 6 of 23 patients randomized to apixaban compared with 0 of 25 patients randomized to warfarin. This study with limitations suggests that apixaban is not an equitable substitute for warfarin to prevent ...

Dabigatran versus warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation.
BACKGROUND Warfarin reduces the risk of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation but increases the risk of hemorrhage and is difficult to use. Dabigatran is a new oral direct thrombin inhibitor.

Off-label Use of Direct Oral Anticoagulants Compared With Warfarin for Left Ventricular Thrombi.
Importance Left ventricular (LV) thrombi can arise in patients with ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathies. Anticoagulation is thought to reduce the risk of stroke or systemic embolism (SSE), but there are no high-quality data on the effectiveness of ...

Thromboembolic and neurologic sequelae of discontinuation of an antihyperlipidemic drug during ongoing warfarin therapy [PDF]
Warfarin and antihyperlipidemics are commonly co-prescribed. Some antihyperlipidemics may inhibit warfarin deactivation via the hepatic cytochrome P450 system.
