Global Thrombosis Test - a possible monitoring system for the effects and safety of dabigatran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
© Otsui et al. 2015BACKGROUND: Dabigatran is an alternative to warfarin (WF) for the thromboprophylaxis of stroke in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). The advantage of dabigatran over WF is that monitoring is not required; however, a

INtravaScular OptIcal Frequency Domain ImaGing EvaluaTion of the Femoropopliteal Lesion With JETSTREAM Atherectomy (INSIGHT JETSTREAM)

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There have been no prior reports of detailed evaluations using intravascular imaging during Jetstream treatment. Aims This study, therefore, aimed to investigate the effects of calcification characteristics and wire bias on lumen gain in Jetstream atherectomy using optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI). Methods This study enrolled

Association of income and educational levels on initiation of oral anticoagulant therapy in patients with incident atrial fibrillation: A Finnish nationwide cohort study

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 89, Issue 1, Page 351-360, January 2023., 2023
Aims Socioeconomic disparities have been reported in the outcomes of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). We assessed the hypothesis that AF patients with higher income or educational level are more frequently initiated with oral anticoagulant (OAC) therapy for stroke prevention.

Effectiveness and safety of direct oral anticoagulants compared to warfarin in treatment naïve non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients in the US Department of defense population

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2019
Background Clinical trials have demonstrated that direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are at least non-inferior to warfarin in reducing the risk of stroke/systemic embolism (SE) among patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF), but the ...

Stent Fracture of Biolimus‐Eluting Stent (Biofreedom) Complicated With Micro‐Coronary Artery Aneurysm

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coronary stent fractures (SFs) are an emerging complication of coronary stents. There are numerous risk factors for SF, which include vessel angulation, use of sirolimus‐eluting stent (SES), long stents, multiple stent layers, stent overlap, inflammation, hypersensitivity, stenting in the right coronary artery, heavy calcification, ostial ...
