Article Synopsis
- Chihuahuas are commonly found in Japan and are at risk for myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD), making accurate diagnosis important.
- The current echocardiographic reference ranges are based on larger dog breeds, leading to uncertainty about their applicability to Chihuahuas.
- This study analyzed key heart measurements from 47 healthy Chihuahuas to establish a specific echocardiographic reference range, finding that certain parameters aligned with existing ranges for larger breeds.
This study aimed to compare and determine the prevalence of drug-drug interaction (DDI) and bleeding rate in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients receiving anticoagulants in a clinical setting. We used large claims data of AF patients obtained from the Japan Medical Data Center. The prevalence of DDIs and cases leading to bleeding events were surveyed clinically relevant DDIs extracted from 1) reported from a spontaneous adverse event reporting system (Japanese Adverse Drug Events Report system; JADER) ≥4 patients; 2) DDIs cited in the package inserts of each anticoagulant (each combination assessed according to "Drug interaction 2015" list; 3) warfarin and quinolone antibiotics DDIs.
