  • Efficacy and safety of Apixaban for the prevention of thrombosis in arteriovenous grafts

    European Journal of Translational Myology, 2024
    This research aims to fill a vital gap in existing studies by evaluating the efficacy and safety of Apixaban, a direct oral anticoagulant, in the prevention of arteriovenous graft (AVG) thrombosis, thereby offering substantial insights into alternative anticoagulant options for hemodialysis patients. Conducted as a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, this study involved end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients who had recently received polytetrafluoroethylene grafts. Participants were assigned to receive either Apixaban at a dose of 2.5 mg twice daily or a placebo. The primary outcome measure was the occurrence of graft thrombosis, while secondary outcomes focused on the incidence and severity of bleeding. Analytical methods included Kaplan-Meier estimates, Cox proportional hazards models, and conventional statistical tests. With 96 patients enrolled, the study found that Apixaban significantly reduced the incidence of AVG thrombosis compared to placebo (16.7% vs. 62.5%, P < 0.0001). Notably, this reduction in thrombosis incidence was not accompanied by an increase in bleeding events, thus affirming the safety profile of Apixaban as established in prior research. Apixaban is identified as an efficacious alternative to traditional anticoagulants in the prevention of AVG thrombosis among hemodialysis patients, representing a notable advancement in the care of individuals with ESRD. The results of this study support further investigations into the optimal dosing strategies specifically tailored for this patient demographic.

    BackgroundFew studies have investigated the alterations in the T and B cell counts and related subgroups in pulmonary infections especially COVID‐19. Here, we aimed to evaluate total T and B lymphocytes and T cell subgroup counts to find the possible correlation between number of these cells and severity and mortality in COVID‐19 patients.MethodsThis study was performed on 40 patients with severe COVID‐19 infection confirmed by reverse transcription‐polymerase chain reaction (RT‐PCR) and chest HRCT in August 2020. By the time of admission, T lymphocytes profile in peripheral blood was investigated using multicolor flow cytometry. The total number of T lymphocytes, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and B lymphocytes were calculated. Expression of CD2, CD3, CD5, and CD7 as pan T cell surface markers and expression of CD38 and HLA‐DR as activated markers on T lymphocytes were also evaluated.ResultsNine patients (22.5%) died during the study and 16 patients (40%) were admitted to ICU. Deceased patients demonstrated lower amounts of T cell count and CD4+ T cell count (with a marginal difference (p = 0.07)) compared with survived patients at the time of admission. The chance of mortality was significantly higher for patients with CD7 loss (OR = 14.89). A marginally significant relationship was also indicated between CD4<200/ml and mortality (OR = 8.65), but no other significant relationships were observed between variables and ICU admission.ConclusionAltogether, CD7 loss on T lymphocytes and CD4+ T cell count below 200/ml revealed a significant relationship with mortality. Considering T lymphocytes and T cell subgroup count could have a predictive value for patients suffering from COVID‐19.
