[PMID: 39035988 PMCID: PMC11257898 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1373635] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Studies on the use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) for preventing venous thromboembolism (VTE) in hospitalized cancer patients are lacking. Therefore, we conducted a multicenter retrospective cohort study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of DOACs versus low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) for the primary prevention of VTE in hospitalized cancer patients. Methods Clinical outcomes included thrombosis, VTE, other thrombosis, all bleeding, major bleeding, nonmajor bleeding, and all-cause death. A 1:1 cohort of rivaroxaban and LMWH patients was created by propensity score matching. Results A total of 2,385 cancer patients were included in this study. During the 3-month follow-up period, 129 (5.4%) thrombosis events occurred, 63 (2.7%) of which were VTEs and 66 (2.8%) of which were other thrombosis events. All bleeding occurred in 163 (6.8%) patients, 68 (2.9%) had major bleeding, and 95 (4.0%) had nonmajor bleeding. All-cause deaths occurred in 113 (4.7%) patients. After adjusting for various confounders, the incidence of thrombosis and other thromboses was significantly lower in the rivaroxaban group than in the LMWH group [OR 0.543, 95% CI (0.343-0.859), p = 0.009; OR 0.461, 95% CI (0.241-0.883), p = 0.020]. There were no significant differences in incidence of VTE, total bleeding, major bleeding, nonmajor bleeding, or all-cause death. Conclusion In oncology patients receiving thromboprophylaxis, rivaroxaban has a lower incidence of thrombosis and other thrombosis and a similar incidence of VTE as LMWH and does not increase the risk of bleeding. Rivaroxaban may be an attractive alternative to LMWH for preventing VTE in hospitalized cancer patients.

Developing a machine learning model for bleeding prediction in patients with cancer-associated thrombosis receiving anticoagulation therapy. J Thromb Haemost 2024; 22:1094-1104. [PMID: 38184201 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtha.2023.12.034] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/08/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Only 1 conventional score is available for assessing bleeding risk in patients with cancer-associated thrombosis (CAT): the CAT-BLEED score. OBJECTIVES Our aim was to develop a machine learning-based risk assessment model for predicting bleeding in CAT and to evaluate its predictive performance in comparison to that of the CAT-BLEED score. METHODS We collected 488 attributes (clinical data, biochemistry, and International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, diagnosis) in 1080 unique patients with CAT. We compared CAT-BLEED score, Ridge and Lasso logistic regression, random forest, and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) algorithms for predicting major bleeding or clinically relevant nonmajor bleeding occurring 1 to 90 days, 1 to 365 days, and 90 to 455 days after venous thromboembolism (VTE). RESULTS The predictive performances of Lasso logistic regression, random forest, and XGBoost were higher than that of the CAT-BLEED score in the prediction of bleeding occurring 1 to 90 days and 1 to 365 days after VTE. For predicting major bleeding or clinically relevant nonmajor bleeding 1 to 90 days after VTE, the CAT-BLEED score achieved a mean area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) of 0.48 ± 0.13, while Lasso logistic regression and XGBoost both achieved AUROCs of 0.64 ± 0.12. For predicting bleeding 1 to 365 days after VTE, the CAT-BLEED score achieved a mean AUROC of 0.47 ± 0.08, while Lasso logistic regression and XGBoost achieved AUROCs of 0.64 ± 0.08 and 0.59 ± 0.08, respectively. CONCLUSION This is the first machine learning-based risk model for bleeding prediction in patients with CAT receiving anticoagulation therapy. Its predictive performance was higher than that of the conventional CAT-BLEED score. With further development, this novel algorithm might enable clinicians to perform personalized anticoagulation strategies with improved clinical outcomes.

Diastolic blood pressure achieved at target systolic blood pressure (120-140 mm Hg) and dabigatran-related bleeding in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation: A real-world study. Anatol J Cardiol 2021; 24:267-273. [PMID: 33001045 PMCID: PMC7585965 DOI: 10.14744/anatoljcardiol.2020.11823] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: Elevated systolic blood pressure (SBP) can significantly increase the bleeding risk in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). However, it is unclear whether elevated diastolic blood pressure (DBP), in the presence of well-controlled SBP is also associated with bleeding. Therefore, we aimed to examine the specific relationship between DBP and bleeding in patients with AF treated with anticoagulants and had well-controlled SBP. Methods: We analyzed data from 542 of 929 patients with nonvalvular AF (NVAF) treated with dabigatran from the Monitor System for the Safety of Dabigatran Treatment study (MISSION-AF) who had a SBP of 120–140 mm Hg at the time of enrollment. The association between DBP and bleeding was analyzed using multivariate logistic regression and smooth curve fitting (penalized spline method). Threshold saturation effect analysis was used to show the nonlinear relationship between DBP and bleeding. Results: After 3 months of follow-up, 49 bleeding events occurred. Compared with participants with DBP <80 mm Hg, those with DBP ≥80 mm Hg had a 118% higher bleeding risk [hazard ratio (HR): 2.18; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.19, 3.98; p<0.05]. The smooth curve showed a nonlinear relationship between DBP and bleeding risk, and the inflection point of DBP was 80 mm Hg. When DBP was ≥80 mm Hg, the bleeding risk increased by 59% (HR: 1.59; 95% CI: 1.16, 2.19; p<0.05) for every 5 mm Hg increase in DBP. Conclusion: Upon achieving an optimal SBP (120–140 mm Hg), a higher DBP might be associated with a higher bleeding risk in patients with NVAF treated with dabigatran.

World J Clin Cases 2020; 8:3458-3464. [PMID: 32913852 PMCID: PMC7457118 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v8.i16.3458] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2020] [Revised: 05/12/2020] [Accepted: 07/14/2020] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence and prevalence of atrial fibrillation are increasing each year, and this condition is one of the most common clinical arrhythmias.
AIM To investigate the levels and significance of serum fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) and miR-208b in patients with atrial fibrillation and their relationship with prognosis.
METHODS From May 2018 to October 2019, 240 patients with atrial fibrillation were selected as an observation group, including 134 with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and 106 with persistent atrial fibrillation; 150 patients with healthy sinus rhythm were selected as a control group. The serum levels of FGF-23 and miR-208b in the two groups were measured. In the observation group, cardiac parameters were determined by echocardiography.
RESULTS The serum levels of FGF-23 and miR-208b in the observation group were 210.20 ± 89.60 ng/mL and 5.30 ± 1.22 ng/mL, which were significantly higher than the corresponding values in the control group (P < 0.05). In the observation group, the serum levels of FGF-23 and miR-208b in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation were 234.22 ± 70.05 ng/mL and 5.83 ± 1.00 ng/mL, which were significantly higher than the corresponding values in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (P < 0.05). The left atrial dimension (LAD) of patients with persistent atrial fibrillation was 38.81 ± 5.11 mm, which was significantly higher than that of patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (P > 0.05). The serum levels of FGF-23 and miR-208b were positively correlated with the LAD (r = 0.411 and 0.382, P < 0.05). In the observation group, the serum levels of FGF-23 and miR-208b in patients with a major cardiovascular event (MACE) were 243.30 ± 72.29 ng/mL and 6.12 ± 1.12 ng/mL, which were significantly higher than the corresponding values in patients without a MACE (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION The serum levels of FGF-23 and miR-208b are increased in patients with atrial fibrillation and are related to the type of disease, cardiac parameters, and prognosis.
