The Use of Direct Oral Anticoagulants in the Management of Venous Thromboembolism in Patients With Obesity

Only registered users can translate articles

Introduction The use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) has gained significant traction given the lack of therapeutic monitoring and the need for anticoagulant bridging. There is a paucity of data on their effectiveness in obese patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE). Preliminary subgroup and

Plasma triacylglycerol and coagulation factor concentrations predict the anticoagulant effect of dietary fish oil in overweight subjects.

Only registered users can translate articles

Fish oil, containing (n-3) PUFA, is associated with a moderate reduction in cardiovascular disease through a multifactorial mechanism involving a decrease in plasma lipids and anticoagulant activity. Two intervention studies on subjects at risk were performed to determine the relation of these 2

Meta-analysis on efficacy and safety of new oral anticoagulants for venous thromboembolism prophylaxis in overweight and obese postarthroplasty patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

Obesity is an independent risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE), and the risk rises further in the postarthroplasty period. Although medication doses often require adjustment for the altered pharmacokinetic profile in obese patients, the efficacy and safety of a fixed-dose regimen of new oral

Anticoagulant effects of a Cannabis extract in an obese rat model.

Only registered users can translate articles

Blood coagulation studies were conducted to determine the possible anti-/prothrombotic effect of an organic cannabis extract and the three major cannabinoids, THC, CBD and CBN. The in vitro effect of the cannabis extract on thrombin activity produced an IC50 value of 9.89 mg/ml, compared to THC at

Effectiveness and Safety of Oral Anticoagulants among NVAF Patients with Obesity: Insights from the ARISTOPHANES Study

Only registered users can translate articles

This ARISTOPHANES analysis examined stroke/systemic embolism (SE) and major bleeding (MB) among a subgroup of nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) patients with obesity prescribed warfarin or non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in order to inform clinical decision making. A

Obesity has become a major threat to health worldwide. The prevalence of obesity is rapidly increasing, so much so that the World Health Organization has declared obesity as global epidemic. Obesity is associated with multiple health problems, including venous thromboembolism and atrial

The use of anticoagulants in morbidly obese patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

Due to its constantly growing incidence, obesity is an increasingly serious social and medical problem. Available data on the use of novel oral anticoagulants in morbidly obese and obese patients are very limited. However, we tried to summarize the available knowledge on the use of anticoagulants in

Outcomes With Novel Oral Anticoagulants in Obese Patients who Underwent Electrical Cardioversion for Atrial Tachyarrhythmias.

Only registered users can translate articles

The efficacy of novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in severely obese patients is uncertain as volume of distribution is related to weight, and few such patients were enrolled in the pivotal trials. As the month after direct-current cardioversion (DCCV) for atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter is a

Obesity Paradox in Atrial Fibrillation: Implications for Outcomes and Relationship with Oral Anticoagulant Drugs.

Only registered users can translate articles

In the last 40 years, concern about the obesity epidemic has increased. Data from the current literature highlight a strong relationship between obesity and atrial fibrillation (AF), particularly in relation to an increased risk for incident and recurrent AF. A phenomenon called the "obesity

The use of anticoagulants for the treatment and prevention of venous thromboembolism in obese patients: implications for safety.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Obesity is a growing problem and is associated with a high risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Clinicians are increasingly challenged with prescribing adequate anticoagulants dosing while balancing the risk of bleeding. METHODS In this narrative review, we address the safety of

A review of the fixed dose use of new oral anticoagulants in obese patients: Is it really enough?

Only registered users can translate articles

Obesity is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality, and it is becoming increasingly prevalent worldwide. Altered pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of drugs in obese patients require dose adjustment according to body weight. New oral anticoagulants (NOACs), which are more frequently used

Efficacy and Safety of Direct-Acting Oral Anticoagulants (DOACs) in the Overweight and Obese

Only registered users can translate articles

Obesity plays an essential role in the safety of pharmacologic drugs. There is paucity of data for direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in the obese, despite these agents becoming more widely used. The primary and secondary objectives of this study were to assess the safety and efficacy of DOACs in
