Direct coagulase inhibitors category of medication that acts as anticoagulants (delaying blood clotting) by directly inhibiting the accelerator coagulase (factor IIa). Thrombin is a serine protease that plays a key role in blood clotting, which makes it a promising target for the treatment of thrombotic diseases. Anticoagulant a drug called as bloo...

Background: Polypharmacy may affect outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) using non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) or vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) due to interactions or reduced adherence, but comparative data are lacking. Therefore, the impact of polypharmacy on AF-related outcomes and benefit-risk profiles of NOACs...
A relationship between malignancy and impaired hemostasis has been proven, and balancing clotting and bleeding risks can be challenging. Half of cancer patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) do not receive any oral anticoagulation (OAC). Using PubMed on the relationship between cancer and AF and their association with hemostasis, targeting studies...
The prevalence of atrial fibrillation is lower in females than in men, but the risk of stroke and systemic thromboembolism is comparable or even higher. Administration of anticoagulant therapy does not modify this difference. Two classes of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants were studied in atrial fibrillation: direct thrombin inhibitors,...
Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are widely used for the prevention of ischemic stroke and systemic embolism in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). However, the differences in safety and effectiveness among four DOACs, dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban, in Japanese patients have not been clarified. Therefore, we co...
Background
Thrombolytic therapy is effective method in the high-risk acute pulmonary embolism (PE) treatment. Reduced-dose thrombolysis (RDT) plus oral anticoagulation therapy is effective and safe method in the moderate and severe PE treatment. It is leading to good early and intermediate-term outcomes. In the RE-COVER and RE-COVER II studies, dab...
