Abstract
The nuanced landscape of anticoagulation therapy in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) presents a formidable challenge, intricately balancing the dual hazards of hemorrhage and thrombosis. These patients find themselves in a precarious position, teetering on the edge of these risks due to compromised platelet functionality and systemic disturbances within their coagulation frameworks. The management of such patients necessitates a meticulous approach to dosing adjustments and vigilant monitoring to navigate the perilous waters of anticoagulant therapy. This is especially critical considering the altered pharmacokinetics in CKD, where the clearance of drugs is significantly impeded, heightening the risk of accumulation and adverse effects. In the evolving narrative of anticoagulation therapy, the introduction of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) has heralded a new era, offering a glimmer of hope for those navigating the complexities of CKD. These agents, with their promise of easier management and a reduced need for monitoring, have begun to reshape the contours of care, particularly for patients not yet on dialysis. However, this is not without its caveats. The application of DOACs in the context of advanced CKD remains a largely uncharted territory, necessitating a cautious exploration to unearth their true potential and limitations. Moreover, the advent of innovative strategies such as left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) underscores the dynamic nature of anticoagulation therapy, potentially offering a tailored solution for those at the intersection of CKD and elevated stroke risk. Yet the journey toward integrating such advancements into standard practice is laden with unanswered questions, demanding rigorous investigation to illuminate their efficacy and safety across the spectrum of kidney disease. In summary, the management of anticoagulation in CKD is a delicate dance, requiring a harmonious blend of precision, caution, and innovation. As we venture further into this complex domain, we must build upon our current understanding, embracing both emerging therapies and the need for ongoing research. Only then can we hope to offer our patients a path that navigates the narrow strait between bleeding and clotting, toward safer and more effective care.

Efficacy and safety of anticoagulant for treatment and prophylaxis of VTE patients with renal insufficiency: a systemic review and meta-analysis. Thromb J 2024; 22:17. [PMID: 38317247 PMCID: PMC10840151 DOI: 10.1186/s12959-023-00576-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/25/2023] [Indexed: 02/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE) comorbid renal insufficiency (RI) are at higher risk of bleeding and thrombosis. Recommendations in guidelines on anticoagulation therapy for those patients remain ambiguous. The goal of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety between different anticoagulant regimens in VTE patients comorbid RI at different stages of treatment and prophylaxis. We performed English-language searches of Pubmed, EMBASE, and Web of Science (inception to Nov 2022). RCTs evaluated anticoagulants for VTE treatment at the acute phase, extension phase, and prophylaxis in patients with RI and reported efficacy and safety outcomes were selected. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed at the outcome level using the risk-of-bias assessment tool developed by the Cochrane Bias Methods Group. A meta-analysis of twenty-five RCTs was conducted, comprising data from twenty-three articles, encompassing a total of 9,680 participants with RI. In the acute phase, the risk of bleeding was increased with novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) compared to LMWH (RR 1.29, 95% CI 1.04-1.60). For the prophylaxis of VTE, NOACs were associated with an elevated risk of bleeding compared with placebo (RR 1.31, 95%CI 1.02-1.68). In comparison to non-RI patients, both NOACs and vitamin K antagonists (VKA) could increase the risk of bleeding among RI patients (RR 1.45, 95%CI 1.14-1.84 and RR 1.53, 95%CI 1.25-1.88, respectively) during acute phase, while NOACs may increase the incidence of VTE in RI population (RR 1.74, 95%CI 1.29-2.34). RI patients who are under routine anticoagulation have a significantly higher risk of adverse outcomes. LMWH is the most effective and safe option for VTE treatment or prophylaxis in patients with RI.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been associated with the initiation and progression of cardiovascular disease. This study aimed to explore the relationship between the severity of OSA and the risk stratification of acute pulmonary embolism (PE). In this single-center cohort study, patients diagnosed with PE were evaluated for OSA via polygraphy monitoring. The simplified PE severity index (sPESI) and the number of patients requiring systemic thrombolysis were used to determine the severity of the disease. Echocardiography was performed on all participants. All patients were divided into 2 groups (OSA group and non-OSA group), and the patients in OSA group were then divided into 3 groups based on the severity of OSA. Patients with severe OSA had a significantly higher number of patients with sPESI ≥ 1 (P = .005). A higher proportion of patients with severe OSA require systemic thrombolysis (P = .010). Patients with apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) > 30/h had a much higher fibrinogen (P = .004) and D-dimer (P = .040) level than those in the non-OSA group. The levels of creatinine were significantly higher in patients with OSA (P = .040). Echocardiography showed a significant difference in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) between patients in non-OSA and severe OSA groups (P = .035). And brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) also exhibited a progressive worsening related to the deepest desaturation and oxygen desaturation index. OSA, especially with AHI > 30/h, is correlated with the severity and prognosis of acute PE. This might be attributed to the prothrombotic effect, renal impairment, and cardiac dysfunction in patients with severe OSA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular deaths (CVDTs) are more frequent in patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE) than in the general population; however, risk factors associated with this increased risk of CVDT in patients with VTE are not described. METHODS To determine the risk factors of CVDT in patients with VTE from a multicenter prospective cohort study, Fine and Gray subdistribution hazard models were conducted. RESULTS Of the 3,988 included patients, 426 (10.7%) died of CVDT during a median follow-up of 5 years. The risk factors of CVDT after multivariate analyses were: age of 50 to 65 years (vs. <50 years, hazard ratio [HR]: 3.22, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.67-6.62), age >65 years (vs. <50 years, HR: 7.60, 95% CI: 3.73-15.52), cancer-associated VTE (vs. transient risk factor-related VTE, HR: 1.73, 95% CI: 1.15-2.61), unprovoked VTE (vs. transient risk factor-related VTE, HR: 1.42, 95% CI: 1.02-2.00), past tobacco use (vs. never, HR: 1.43, 95% CI: 1.06-1.94), current tobacco use (vs. never, HR: 1.87, 95% CI: 1.15-3.01), hypertension (HR: 2.11, 95% CI: 1.51-2.96), chronic heart failure (HR: 2.28, 95% CI: 1.37-3.79), chronic respiratory failure (HR: 1.72, 95% CI: 1.02-2.89), and atrial fibrillation (HR: 1.67, 95% CI: 1.06-2.60). The risk of CVDT was significantly reduced with direct oral anticoagulants (vs. vitamin-K antagonists) and with longer duration of treatment (>3 months). CONCLUSION Risk factors of CVDT after VTE include some traditional cardiovascular risk factors and other risk factors that are related to characteristics of VTE, and patients' comorbidities.

Abstract
Many studies from current literature show that cardiovascular diseases in patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE) are more frequent than in the general population without VTE. However, data summarizing the impact of cardiovascular diseases on mortality of patients with VTE are lacking. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we aimed to determine the frequency and incidence rate of cardiovascular death in patients with VTE. MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched from January 1, 2000 to February 28, 2021. Eligible studies were observational prospective cohort studies including patients with VTE and reporting all causes of death. Cardiovascular death was defined as deaths that result from new or recurrent pulmonary embolism, death due to acute myocardial infarction, sudden cardiac death or heart failure, death due to stroke, death due to cardiovascular procedures or hemorrhage, death due to ruptured aortic aneurysm or aortic dissection and death due to other cardiovascular causes. Random-effect models meta-analysis served to determine all pooled effect size of interest with their 95% confidence interval (CI). Thirteen observational studies enrolling 22,251 patients were identified and included. The mean/median age varied between 49 and 75 years. The proportion of men ranged from 38.3 to 53.2%. The overall pooled frequency of cardiovascular death in patients with VTE was 3.9% (95% CI: 2.5-5.6%), while the overall pooled frequency of all-cause mortality was 12.0% (95% CI: 9.1-15.4%). The pooled proportion of cardiovascular death among all causes of deaths in patients with VTE was 35.2% (95% CI: 22.2-49.3%). The pooled incidence rate of cardiovascular death was 1.92 per 100 patient-years (95% CI: 0-4.1). The frequency of cardiovascular death in patients with VTE was significantly higher than in patients without VTE (risk ratio: 3.85, 95% CI: 2.75-5.39). Based on this updated meta-analysis from 13 prospective cohort studies, cardiovascular death in patients with VTE is more frequent than in the general population without VTE.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE) and concomitant chronic kidney disease (CKD) have been reported to have a higher risk of thrombosis and major bleeding complications compared with patients without concomitant CKD. The use of anticoagulation therapy is challenging, as many anticoagulant medications are excreted by the kidney. Large-scale data are needed to clarify the impact of CKD for anticoagulant treatment strategies and clinical outcomes of patients with VTE. OBJECTIVE To compare clinical characteristics, treatment patterns, and 12-month outcomes among patients with VTE and concomitant moderate to severe CKD (stages 3-5) vs patients with VTE and mild to no CKD (stages 1-2) in a contemporary international registry. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS The Global Anticoagulant Registry in the Field-Venous Thromboembolism (GARFIELD-VTE) study is a prospective noninterventional investigation of real-world treatment practices. A total of 10 684 patients from 415 sites in 28 countries were enrolled in the GARFIELD-VTE between May 2014 and January 2017. This cohort study included 8979 patients (6924 patients with mild to no CKD and 2055 patients with moderate to severe CKD) who had objectively confirmed VTE within 30 days before entry in the registry. Chronic kidney disease stages were defined by estimated glomerular filtration rates. Data were extracted from the study database on December 8, 2018, and analyzed between May 1, 2019, and July 30, 2020. EXPOSURE Moderate to severe CKD vs mild to no CKD. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The primary outcomes were all-cause mortality, recurrent VTE, and major bleeding. Event rates and 95% CIs were calculated and expressed per 100 person-years. Hazard ratios (HRs) were estimated with Cox proportional hazards regression models and adjusted for relevant confounding variables. All-cause mortality was considered a competing risk for other clinical outcomes in the estimation of cumulative incidences. RESULTS Of the 10 684 patients with objectively confirmed VTE, serum creatinine data were available for 8979 patients (84.0%). Of those, 4432 patients (49.4%) were female and 5912 patients (65.8%) were White; 6924 patients (77.1%; median age, 57 years; interquartile range [IQR], 44-69 years) were classified as having mild to no CKD, and 2055 patients (22.9%; median age, 70 years; IQR, 59-78 years) were classified as having moderate to severe CKD. Calculations using the equation from the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease study indicated that, among the 6924 patients with mild to no CKD, 2991 patients had stage 1 CKD, and 3933 patients had stage 2 CKD; among the 2055 patients with moderate to severe CKD, 1650 patients had stage 3 CKD, 190 patients had stage 4 CKD, and 215 patients had stage 5 CKD. The distribution of VTE presentation was comparable between groups. In total, 1171 patients (57.0%) with moderate to severe CKD and 4079 patients (58.9%) with mild to no CKD presented with deep vein thrombosis alone, 547 patients (26.6%) with moderate to severe CKD and 1723 patients (24.9%) with mild to no CKD presented with pulmonary embolism alone, and 337 patients (16.4%) with moderate to severe CKD and 1122 patients (16.2%) with mild to no CKD presented with both pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis. Compared with patients with mild to no CKD, patients with moderate to severe CKD were more likely to be female (3259 women [47.1%] vs 1173 women [57.1%]) and older than 65 years (2313 patients [33.4%] vs 1278 patients [62.2%]). At baseline, the receipt of parenteral therapy alone was comparable between the 2 groups (355 patients [17.3%] with moderate to severe CKD vs 1253 patients [18.1%] with mild to no CKD). Patients with moderate to severe CKD compared with those with mild to no CKD were less likely to be receiving direct oral anticoagulant therapy, either alone (557 patients [27.1%] vs 2139 patients [30.9%]) or in combination with parenteral therapy (319 patients [15.5%] vs 1239 patients [17.9%]). Patients with moderate to severe CKD had a higher risk of all-cause mortality (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 1.44; 95% CI, 1.21-1.73), major bleeding (aHR, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.03-1.90), and recurrent VTE (aHR, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.10-1.77) than patients with mild to no CKD. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In this study of patients with VTE, the presence of moderate to severe CKD was associated with increases in the risk of death, VTE recurrence, and major bleeding compared with the presence of mild to no CKD.

Risk Factors and Clinical Outcomes Associated With Augmented Renal Clearance in Trauma Patients. J Surg Res 2019; 244:477-483. [PMID: 31330291 DOI: 10.1016/j.jss.2019.06.087] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2019] [Revised: 05/21/2019] [Accepted: 06/20/2019] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Augmented renal clearance (ARC; i.e., creatinine clearance [CLCr] ≥ 130 mL/min) has an incidence of 14%-80% in critically ill patients and has been associated with therapy failures for renally cleared drugs. However, the clinical implications of ARC are poorly defined. We hypothesize that modifiable risk factors that contribute to ARC can be identified in severely injured trauma patients and that these risk factors influence clinical outcome. METHODS In 207 trauma intensive care unit patients, 24-h CLCr was correlated with clinical estimates of glomerular filtration rate (by Cockroft-Gault, modification of diet in renal disease, or chronic kidney disease epidemiology), and clinical outcomes (infection, venous thromboembolism [VTE], length of stay, and mortality). RESULTS The population was 45 ± 20 y, 68% male, 77% blunt injury with injury severity score of 24 (17-30). Admission serum creatinine was 1.02 ± 0.35 mg/dL, CLCr was 154 ± 77 mL/min, VTE incidence was 15%, ARC incidence was 57%, and mortality was 11%. Clinical estimates of glomerular filtration rate by Cockroft-Gault, modification of diet in renal disease, chronic kidney disease epidemiology underestimated actual CLCr by 20%, 22%, or 15% (all P < 0.01). CLCr was higher in males and those who survived, and lower in those with hypertension, diabetes, positive cultures, receiving transfusions, or pressors (all P < 0.05). On multivariate analysis, male gender (odds ratio [OR] 2.9 [1.4-6.1]), age (OR 0.97 [0.95-0.99]), and packed red blood cells transfusion (OR 0.31 [0.15-0.66]) were the only independent predictors of ARC. CONCLUSIONS ARC occurs in more than half of all high-risk trauma intensive care unit patients and is underestimated by standard clinical equations. ARC was not associated with increased incidence of VTE or infection but rather is associated with younger healthier males and reduced mortality. ARC seems to be a beneficial compensatory response to trauma.
