Effectiveness and safety of oral anticoagulants in elderly patients with atrial fibrillation

Ole-Christian Walter Rutherford et al.

Summary: A study on elderly atrial fibrillation patients aged 65 and above using oral anticoagulants found that NOACs compared to warfarin had similar risks of stroke/SE but lower or similar risks of bleeding. The findings suggest that NOACs are a safe option for elderly patients.

Comparing risk of major bleeding between users of different oral anticoagulants in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation

Patrick C. Souverein et al.

Summary: The study aimed to assess the benefit-risk balance of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) compared to vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation patients. Using data from 4 EU countries, the study found that DOACs have different risks of major bleeding compared to VKAs, and the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding varies among different DOACs.

Clinical outcomes of nonvitamin K oral anticoagulants and acenocoumarol for stroke prevention in contemporary practice: A population-based propensity-weighted cohort study

Clara L. Rodriguez-Bernal et al.

Summary: This population-based retrospective cohort study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of NOAC and Acenocoumarol in patients with NVAF. The study found no overall differences in clinical outcomes between NOAC and Acenocoumarol, although dabigatran and rivaroxaban showed a lower risk of intracranial haemorrhage compared to Acenocoumarol.

Safety of Dabigatran as an Anticoagulant: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Ya Zhou et al.

Summary: This study comparing dabigatran with conventional treatments found that dabigatran is not associated with an increased risk of major bleeding, intracranial hemorrhage, fatal adverse reactions, and all-cause mortality, but is linked to a higher risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. Overall, dabigatran may be a suitable alternative to VKAs as an oral anticoagulant, but further research is needed to fully understand its safety profile.

Dose specific effectiveness and safety of DOACs in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation: A Canadian retrospective cohort study

Elham Rahme et al.

Summary: Standard-dose DOACs have similar stroke risks, better persistence, and mortality profiles compared to warfarin. Only standard-dose apixaban and dabigatran show better bleeding profiles than warfarin. Low-dose rivaroxaban demonstrates worse persistence, stroke, and bleeding profiles than warfarin, while low-dose apixaban and dabigatran have similar stroke risks and better bleeding profiles. Real-world use of DOACs may explain some differences observed in Canadian routine care compared to phase III clinical trials.
