Bleeding outcomes associated with rivaroxaban and dabigatran in patients treated for atrial fibrillation: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract: BackgroundWarfarin is commonly used as a secondary prevention of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). However, limitations have been observed even with the use of this medication. Recently, several newer direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have been approved for use by the food and drug administrations. Unfortunately, these newer drugs have seldom been compared directly with each other. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the bleeding events associated with rivaroxaban and dabigatran in patients… Show more

“…Moreover, there is a need to assess the comparative effectiveness and safety of DOACs in real-world settings. While four publications to date have systematically reviewed and metaanalyzed available real-world data, [7][8][9][10] one used outdated tools for the assessment of the risk of bias, [7] while others omitted bias assessment altogether. [8,9] Moreover, numerous studies reporting head-to-head comparisons among DOACs that were recently published were not included in these earlier works.…”

“…Fourth, there are insufficient data about the exact dose of antiplatelet and anticoagulant drugs, which may affect the analysis of adverse outcomes [34]. In addition, we did not compare the effects of the same type of antithrombotic drugs on patients [16,35]. Finally, NOAC did not enter the market until 2013 in China, and these drugs cannot be…”
