Over the past 20 years, there has been a shift from vitamin K antagonists to direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), which include thrombin inhibitor dabigatran and factor Xa inhibitors apixaban, edoxaban, rivaroxaban. Although DOACs are associated with less serious bleeding than antagonists, still occurs DOACs, particularly in elderly those comorbidities. Reversal of anticoagulant effects may be needed patients requiring urgent surgery or intervention. can effected specific agents, such as idarucizumab for andexanet alfa rivaroxaban, non-specific prothrombin complex concentrates, activated concentrate, recombinant VII. This paper (i) provides an update on when how reverse (ii) describes new reversal agents under development, (iii) strategic framework XI currently investigation phase three clinical trials.

BACKGROUND: COVID-19 is associated with acute risk of major adverse cardiac events (MACE), including myocardial infarction, stroke, and mortality (all-cause). However, the duration underlying determinants heightened cardiovascular disease MACE post–COVID-19 are not known. METHODS: Data from UK Biobank was used to identify cases (n=10 005) who were positive for polymerase chain reaction (PCR + )-based tests SARS-CoV-2 infection (n=8062) or received hospital-based International Classification Diseases version-10 (ICD-10 ) codes (n=1943) between February 1, 2020 December 31, 2020. Population controls (n=217 730) propensity score—matched (n=38 860) also drawn during same period. Proportional hazard models evaluate association long-term (>1000 days) as a coronary artery equivalent. Additional analyses examined whether interacted genetic affect its components. RESULTS: The elevated in at all levels severity (HR, 2.09 [95% CI, 1.94–2.25]; P <0.0005) greater extent hospitalized 3.85 3.51–4.24]; <0.0005). Hospitalization represented equivalent since incident among without history even higher than that observed patients 1.21 1.08–1.37]; <0.005). A significant interaction ABO locus hospitalization ( =0.01), thrombotic being increased subjects non-O blood types 1.65 1.29–2.09]; =4.8×10 −5 type O 0.96 0.66–1.39]; =0.82). CONCLUSIONS: represents equivalent, post–acute infarction stroke particularly types. These results may have important clinical implications represent, our knowledge, one first examples gene-pathogen exposure events.

Abstract Aims APOC3, ANGPTL3, and ANGPTL4 are circulating proteins that actively pursued as pharmacological targets to treat dyslipidaemia reduce the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Here, we used human genetic data compare predicted therapeutic adverse effects inactivation. Methods results We conducted drug-target Mendelian randomization analyses using variants in proximity genes associated with protein levels drug targets. obtained exposure outcome from large-scale genome-wide association studies generalized least squares correct for linkage disequilibrium-related correlation. evaluated five primary cardiometabolic endpoints screened potential side across 694 disease-related endpoints, 43 clinical laboratory tests, 11 internal organ MRI measurements. Genetically lowering reduced odds coronary artery disease (CAD) [odds ratio, 0.57 per s.d. (95% CI 0.47–0.70)] Type 2 diabetes (T2D) 0.73 0.57–0.94)]. APOC3 also CAD 0.90 0.82–0.99)]. lowered ANGPTL3 via common were not CAD. However, meta-analysis protein-truncating revealed inactivation protected against (odds 0.71 allele [95%CI, 0.58–0.85]). Analysis ANGPTL4, did identify important safety concerns. Conclusion Human evidence suggests therapies aimed at reducing may T2D.
