No influence of dabigatran anticoagulation on hemorrhagic transformation in an experimental model of ischemic stroke [PDF]
Background: Dabigatran etexilate (DE) is a new oral direct thrombin inhibitor. Clinical trials point towards a favourable risk-to-benefit profile of DE compared to warfarin. In this study, we evaluated whether hemorrhagic transformation (HT) occurs after

Evaluating the Effect of Longitudinal Dose and INR Data on Maintenance Warfarin Dose Predictions [PDF]
Warfarin, a commonly prescribed drug to prevent blood clots, has a highly variable individual response. Determining a maintenance warfarin dose that achieves a therapeutic blood clotting time, as measured by the international normalized ratio (INR), is crucial in preventing complications.
