However, the impact of this combination on the anticoagulant efficacy of warfarin remains uncertain, posing challenges to clinical decision-making. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of various antibiotics on the international normalized ratio (INR) values in hospitalized patients who were concurrently administered warfarin.

Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death globally. Demographic, behavioral, socioeconomic, health care, and psychosocial variables considered risk factors for CVD are routinely measured in population health surveys, providing opportunities to examine health transitions. Studying the drivers of health transitions in countries where multiple burdens of disease persist (eg, South Africa), compared with countries regarded as models of "epidemiologic transition" (eg, England), can provide knowledge on where best to intervene and direct resources to reduce the disease burden.
