Background:Venous thromboembolism (VTE) has a long-term risk of recurrence, which can be prevented by anticoagulation therapy.
There has been limited data on anticoagulation strategies and long-term recurrence in patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE) the era of direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC).The COMMAND VTE Registry-2 is a multicenter retrospective cohort study enrolling 5197 consecutive acute symptomatic between January 2015 August 2020 among 31 centers Japan. In this primary report, entire was divided into 5 groups; major transient risk factors (N = 475, 9.1%), minor 788, 15%), unprovoked 1913, 37%),...
Abstract Limitations of the ablation index background Ablation (AI) is a novel marker lesion quality from radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation. However, AI reliability has not been fully validated by experimental data. The aim present study to validate for estimating size using different settings RF parameters: contact angle, power delivery, and force (CF). Methods results We evaluated in porcine hearts (N = 108) after application at three angles myocardium: perpendicular (90°), oblique...
Background It remains controversial whether long-term clinical impact of newly diagnosed atrial fibrillation (AF) in the acute phase myocardial infarction (AMI) is different from that prior AF before onset AMI. Methods and Results The current study population CREDO-Kyoto AMI (Coronary Revascularization Demonstrating Outcome Study Kyoto Acute Myocardial Infarction) Registry Wave-2 consisted 6228 patients with who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention. baseline characteristics outcomes...
We investigated the effects of nucleos(t)ide analogues (NAs) on long-term outcome in patients following curative treatment for hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).This study involved 70 76 who had undergone liver resection HBV-related HCC our department; 6 were excluded due to non-curative or advanced cancer. The divided into three groups, as follows: 13 with high serum concentration HBV DNA (≥4 log(10) copies/mL) and no antiviral therapy (high viral group); 46...
Smoke-inhalation injury is a major cause of mortality in burn patients, and therefore, it important to determine accurately the severity such injuries these patients. The objective this study was evaluate whether chest computed tomography (CT) can be used for detecting early predictors complications smoke-inhalation injury.We evaluated 37 patients who had sustained undergone CT within few hours admission hospital. Bronchoscopy performed according standardized protocol 12 all Bronchial-wall...
We established a multi-center, prospective cohort that could provide appropriate therapeutic strategies such as criteria for the introduction and effectiveness of in-hospital advanced treatments, including percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), target temperature management, extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients.In Osaka Prefecture, Japan, we registered all consecutive patients who were suffering from an OHCA whom was attempted...
The prevalence of and expected bleeding event rate in patients with the Japanese version high risk (J-HBR) criteria are currently unknown real-world percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) practice.
Background Real-world data on clinical characteristics and outcomes related to the use of different direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) for cancer-associated venous thromboembolism (VTE) is lacking. Methods The COMMAND VTE Registry-2 a multicenter registry enrolling 5,197 consecutive patients with acute symptomatic from 31 centers in Japan January 2015 August 2020. Our study population comprised 1,197 active cancer who were divided into edoxaban (N = 643, 54%), rivaroxaban 297, 25%), apixaban...
Neurological abnormalities are a key factor in the prognosis of patients with post-cardiac arrest syndrome. In this study, we evaluated whether differences CT measurements expressed Hounsfield units (HUs) cerebral cortex and white matter can be used as early predictors neurological outcome treated hypothermia therapy after hypoxic-ischemic brain damage. We performed retrospective study 58 resuscitated cardiac between 2007 2010 who were for initial 24 hours post resuscitation. divided into 4...
Abstract Objectives After the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, resource utilization of and problems encountered with communication devices were examined. Methods A questionnaire survey was submitted to disaster medical assistance teams (DMATs) that at primary sites destruction after earthquake. Results We collected data from 196 teams. During first 4 days earthquake, use mobile phones, laptop computers, landline phones rated as poor moderate, satisfaction very low, while satellite good...
We experienced four Japanese patients with spontaneous retroperitoneal bleeding, a rare disease. categorized the clinical characteristics of bleeding in these treated our hospital and discuss risk factors bleeding.Three 4 did not have tendency as indicated by laboratory data obtained at time bleeding. The causative blood vessels were lumbar superior gluteal arteries internal iliac artery. All receiving an anticoagulant, heparin one nafamostat mesilate other three patients. Three being...
Background: Patients with appropriately selected low-risk pulmonary embolism (PE) can be treated at home, although it has been controversial whether applies to patients cancer, who are considered not low risk.
Background Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a life‐threatening complication post‐acute embolism (PE). The assessment of CTEPH incidence and risk factors PE in the era direct oral anticoagulants remains insufficient. Methods Results COMMAND VTE Registry‐2 (contemporary management outcomes patients with venous thromboembolism registry‐2) multicenter registry that recruited consecutive acute symptomatic from 31 centers across Japan. primary outcome was to demonstrate...
Aim: Several investigators have shown that interferon (IFN) therapy can suppress the recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after curative treatment. We investigated effect IFN on first and second HCC following hepatic resection hepatitis C virus (HCV)‐related HCC. Methods: Subjects included 166 patients who had undergone for a single HCV‐related analyzed outcome initial risk factors treatment recurrence. Results: Using multivariate analysis, non‐sustained virological response...
To elucidate the influence of diabetes on tumor recurrence after curative resection for hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).A total 100 patients who underwent solitary HCV-related HCC were analyzed. Data from 26 with compared to those 74 without diabetes. The two groups matched in terms presence cirrhosis, Child-Pugh classification, and size (within 10%).Tumor-free survival rates 45% 48% at 3 years 27% 5 diabetes, respectively. No significant difference was...
