Comparison of 4-factor fixed dose versus 4-factor weight-based dose prothrombin complex concentrate for emergent warfarin reversal: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Clin Exp Emerg Med

Department of Pharmacy Practice, Faculty of Pharmacy, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Objectives: The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, time to INR reversal, total volume of 4-factor prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC) administered of fixed-dose versus weight-based dosing strategies in patients requiring urgent warfarin reversal, with specific focus on clinical outcomes such as hemostatic efficacy, thromboembolic events, and mortality rates.
Methods: A comprehensive systematic review was conducted using the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases from inception through October 2023. We searched for randomized clinical trials or observational studies that compared efficacy or safety outcomes of fixed-dose vs.
Antithrombotic therapy impact on patency and bleeding complications of arteriovenous graft placement in dialysis patients.

Department of Vascular Surgery, Larissa University Hospital, Faculty of Medicine, University of Thessaly, Larissa, Greece.
Arteriovenous grafts (AVG) can be the only bailout solution for patients who require kidney replacement therapy but are unsuitable for arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation. Currently, high-level evidence on the effectiveness and safety of antithrombotic therapy in AVG patients is scarce. Following the PICO (patient; intervention; comparator; outcome) model and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, a data search of the English literature in PubMed, SCOPUS, Central Cochrane was conducted, until March 1st, 2023 (PROSPERO Protocol Number: CRD42023401785).

Janssen Scientific Affairs LLC, a Johnson & Johnson company Titusville NJ USA.
Background: The economic burden of nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) is substantial. Many patients with NVAF are obese and manage other health conditions requiring multiple medications. This real-world study compared health care resource use (HRU) and costs for rivaroxaban and warfarin in patients with NVAF who had polypharmacy and obesity.

Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) Study Group, Cardiovascular Division Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School Boston MA USA.
Background: Epistaxis is common with antithrombotic therapy and is often troublesome to patients, yet its frequency, severity, and outcomes are poorly characterized.
Methods And Results: Effective Anticoagulation with Factor Xa Next Generation in Atrial Fibrillation-Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction 48 (ENGAGE AF-TIMI 48) randomized 21 105 patients with atrial fibrillation and CHADS2 risk score ≥2 to higher-dose edoxaban regimen (60 mg daily, dose-reduced to 30 mg), lower-dose edoxaban regimen (30 mg, dose reduced to 15 mg, daily), or warfarin. Bleeds were adjudicated using International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis criteria.
Direct oral anticoagulants or warfarin in patients with left ventricular thrombus after ST-elevation myocardial infarction: a pilot trial and a prespecified meta-analysis of randomised trials.

Cardiovascular Medicine Division, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA.
Background: The role of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in the treatment of left ventricular thrombus (LVT) after ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains uncertain.
Aims: We aimed to compare the effect of rivaroxaban versus warfarin in patients with STEMI complicated by LVT.
Methods: Adult patients with STEMI and two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography showing LVT were assigned to rivaroxaban (15 mg once daily) or warfarin (international normalised ratio goal of 2.
