Current guidelines offer a choice of P2Y12 receptor antagonist among clopidogrel, prasugrel or ticagrelor on top of aspirin (ASA) for dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in patients after acute coronary syndromes (ACS). However, the comparative risks of gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events during DAPT
BACKGROUND
Clopidogrel, aspirin (ASA), and the fixed-dose combination of extended-release dipyridamole and ASA (ER-DP+ASA) are widely used in post-stroke regimens.
OBJECTIVE
This study compared serial changes in multiple biomarkers of platelet activation with ER-DP+ASA and clopidogrel with or
BACKGROUND
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a common surgical intervention at the end-stages of coronary artery occlusion disease. Despite the effectiveness of CABG, it may have particular complications, such as bleeding during and after surgery. So far, there have been many drugs used to
BACKGROUND
Pituitary apoplexy is a life-threatening endocrine emergency that is caused by haemorrhage or infarction of the pituitary gland, commonly within a pituitary adenoma. Patients classically present with headache, ophthalmoplegia, visual field defects and altered mental state, but may present
The modalities to treat bleeding polyps include electrocautery snare polypectomy, adrenaline injection, clipping, argon plasma coagulation and surgery. We hereby describe an endoscopic banding ligation method for the management of bleeding gastric polyp in a patient receiving antiplatelet therapy. A
BACKGROUND
Triflusal is an irreversible inhibitor of platelet cyclooxygenase. Triflusal significantly reduced the incidence of nonfatal myocardial infarction in patients with unstable angina. Antithrombotic properties have also been demonstrated in patients with aortocoronary vein grafting, coronary
BACKGROUND
Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) may be susceptible to gastrointestinal (GI) effects of medications used for thromboprophylaxis.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the incidence of thromboprophylaxis discontinuation due to GI symptoms and GI events.
METHODS
A systematic search of MEDLINE
In 14 patients with acute myocardial infarction, a 24-hour Iloprost infusion was started with a mean delay of 309 +/- 22 minutes from onset of symptoms. Patients were haemodynamically monitored with a pulmonary artery catheter and an arterial cannula. The dose of Iloprost was 1-4 ng kg-1 min-1 and
MEDI-575, an immunoglobulin G2κ monoclonal antibody, selectively binds to platelet-derived growth factor-α receptor (PDGFR-α) with high specificity. This multicenter, single-arm, open-label, phase II study evaluated the efficacy and safety of MEDI-575 in patients with recurrent glioblastoma. Adults
OBJECTIVE
This study evaluated the safety, toxicity, pharmacological properties and biological activity of PI-88, a heparanase endoglycosidase enzyme inhibitor, with fixed weekly docetaxel in patients with advanced solid malignancies.
METHODS
This was a phase I study to determine the
It is increasingly recognized that a significant proportion of patients suffered from acute myocardial infraction (AMI) who did not have obstructive coronary artery disease (≥50% diameter stenosis). The term "MINOCA (myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are drugs commonly prescribed in dental practice for the management of pain and swelling. Of these substances, paracetamol and ibuprofen are the most widely used. Their mechanism of action is based on the inhibition of cyclooxygenase, and therefore of
Prostacyclin (PGI2) is a bioactive substance produced by vascular endothelial cells, which exerts powerful vasodilative and anti-platelet actions. Patients with pulmonary hypertension have an imbalance between vasodilative PGI2 and vasoconstrictive thromboxane B2 (TXB2). Treatment with vasodilative
Until recently, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) were regarded as weak analgesic agents with a potent antiplatelet effect that severely limited their perioperative usefulness. However, the recent development of injectable NSAIDs has stimulated a re-evaluation of the potential role of
The chemistry, pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, clinical efficacy, adverse effects, and dosage of ticlopidine are reviewed. Ticlopidine appears to inhibit platelet aggregation induced by adenosine diphosphate. Ticlopidine hydrochloride is rapidly absorbed after oral administration, and maximum
