Background: Thromboembolic disorders globally contribute to morbidity and mortality, emphasizing adequate anticoagulation and thrombosis management. Therapeutic advances are essential in preventing complications like pulmonary embolism, stroke, and myocardial infarction. This review summarizes recent anticoagulation advances, current challenges, future directions, and novel anticoagulants and drug delivery systems on clinical outcomes.

Methods: This paper assesses the effectiveness and safety of new anticoagulants through a systematic review of recent clinical trials, meta-analyses, and guideline publications. Key studies, including PACIFIC-AF, RIVER, ENAVLE, ENVISAGE-TAVI AF, and ARCADIA, were analyzed to provide a perspective on therapeutic advancements.

Results: The review highlights key findings from vital clinical trials. Asundexian, in the PACIFIC-AF trial, demonstrated a 34% reduction in bleeding events compared to Apixaban. In the RIVER trial, Rivaroxaban reduced significant bleeding events by 20% compared to warfarin in patients with bioprosthetic mitral valves. In the ENAVLE trial, Edoxaban achieved a 3.7% decrease in thromboembolic events compared to warfarin without increasing significant bleeding rates. In the ENVISAGE-TAVI AF trial, edoxaban was noninferior to VKAs in preventing thromboembolic events but showed a slight increase in major bleeding events by 1.5%. Lastly, the ARCADIA trial highlighted that apixaban did not significantly reduce recurrent stroke risk compared to aspirin, with both treatments having an annualized stroke rate of 4.4%.

Conclusion: Advances in anticoagulant therapies and drug delivery systems aim to enhance patients' clinical outcomes for thromboembolic disorders. While recent trials show promising data, ongoing patient-specific responses and monitoring challenges require further research. Continuous innovation and investigation are essential to refine anticoagulation practices and tailor treatments.

LDL-cholesterol lowering agents (statins and PCSK9 inhibitors) and the risk of intracerebral hemorrhage: A network meta-analysis.

Department of Neurology, Chongqing University Three Gorges Hospital, Wanzhou, Chongqing 400016, China; School of Medicine, Chongqing University, Chongqing 404010, China. Electronic address:

Background And Purpose: Statin therapy reduces the risk of ischemic stroke; however, certain studies have observed an increased incidence of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Moreover, proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9(PCSK-9) inhibitors have emerged as a powerful class of lipid-lowering medications, potentially with a lower propensity for causing hemorrhagic events. To investigate this matter further, we conducted a network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving statins and PCSK-9 inhibitors that reported occurrences of ICH.

Background: Diastolic wall strain (DWS), also referred to as right ventricular (RV) dysfunction, is a significant predictor of pulmonary embolism (PE) and heart failure (HF). Rooted in linear elastic theory, DWS reflects decreased wall thinning during diastole, indicating reduced left ventricular (LV) compliance and increased diastolic stiffness. Elevated diastolic stiffness is associated with worse outcomes, particularly in PE and HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).

Purpose Of Review: This review assesses the outcomes of coronary interventions in patients with liver cirrhosis and coronary artery disease (CAD), focusing on the clinical challenges posed by cirrhosis-related hemodynamic and coagulopathic changes. It highlights essential considerations for managing these patients, who have an increased risk of adverse events during coronary procedures.

Recent Findings: Recent studies have shown that patients with liver cirrhosis undergoing PCI experience significantly higher mortality rates compared to non-cirrhotic patients, particularly in the context of STEMI and NSTEMI.

Intra-arterial Alteplase Thrombolysis After Successful Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke in the Posterior Circulation (IAT-TOP): Study Protocol and Rationale.

Int J Stroke

January 2025

Department of Neurosurgery and Interventional Neuroradiology, Xuanwu Hospital, China International Neuroscience Institute, Capital Medical University, National Center for Neurological Disorders, 45 Changchun St, Beijing 100053, China.

Rationale: The Chemical Optimization of Cerebral Embolectomy (CHOICE) trial suggested that the administration of intra-arterial alteplase after successful endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) may improve neurological outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO) in the anterior circulation. However, the use of adjunctive intra-arterial alteplase following successful EVT in acute posterior circulation stroke remains unexplored.

Aims: This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of intra-arterial alteplase after successful EVT for AIS-LVO in the posterior circulation.
