Abstract
Background The maintenance of antiplatelet therapy increases the risk of bleeding during lung cancer surgery. Conversely, the perioperative interruption of antiplatelet therapy may result in serious thrombotic complications. This study aimed to investigate the safety of continuing antiplatelet therapy in the context of lung cancer surgery. Methods We retrospectively reviewed a cohort of 498 elderly patients who underwent surgery for lung cancer. These patients were categorized into 2 groups: group N, which did not receive antiplatelet therapy, and group A, which did. Group A was subsequently subdivided into group Am, where antiplatelet therapy was maintained, and group Ai, where antiplatelet therapy was interrupted. We compared the incidence of bleeding-related and thrombotic complications across the 3 groups. Results There were 387 patients in group N and 101 patients in group A (Ai: 70, Am: 31). No significant differences were found in intraoperative blood loss, thoracotomy conversion rates, transfusion requirements, volume of chest tube drainage, or reoperation rates for bleeding control between groups N and A or between groups Am and Ai. The duration of hospital stay was longer for group A compared to group N (7 days vs. 6 days, p=0.005), but there was no significant difference between groups Ai and Am. The incidence of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular complications did not differ significantly between groups Ai and Am. However, group Ai included a severe case of in-hospital ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Conclusion The maintenance of antiplatelet therapy was found to be safe in terms of perioperative bleeding and thrombotic complications in elderly lung cancer surgery patients.

Abstract
Cyclooxygenase enzymes have distinct roles in cardiovascular, neurological, and neurodegenerative disease. They are differently expressed in different type of cancers. Specific and selective COXs inhibitors are needed to be used alone or in combo-therapies. Fully understand the differences at the catalytic site of the two cyclooxygenase (COX) isoforms is still opened to investigation. Thus, two series of novel compounds were designed and synthesized in fair to good yields using the highly selective COX-1 inhibitor mofezolac as the lead compound to explore a COX-1 zone formed by the polar residues Q192, S353, H90 and Y355, as well as hydrophobic amino acids I523, F518 and L352. According to the structure of the COX-1:mofezolac complex, hydrophobic amino acids appear to have free volume eventually accessible to the more sterically hindering groups than the methoxy linked to the phenyl groups of mofezolac, in particular the methoxyphenyl at C4-mofezolac isoxazole. Mofezolac bears two methoxyphenyl groups linked to C3 and C4 of the isoxazole core ring. Thus, in the novel compounds, one or both methoxy groups were replaced by the higher homologous ethoxy, normal and isopropyl, normal and tertiary butyl, and phenyl and benzyl. Furthermore, a major difference between the two sets of compounds is the presence of either a methyl or acetic moiety at the C5 of the isoxazole. Among the C5-methyl series, 12 (direct precursor of mofezolac) (COX-1 IC50 = 0.076 μM and COX-2 IC50 = 0.35 μM) and 15a (ethoxy replacing the two methoxy groups in 12; COX-1 IC50 = 0.23 μM and COX-2 IC50 > 50 μM) were still active and with a Selectivity Index (SI = COX-2 IC50/COX-1 IC50) = 5 and 217, respectively. The other symmetrically substituted alkoxyphenyl moietis were inactive at 50 μM final concentration. Among the asymmetrically substituted, only the 16a (methoxyphenyl on C3-isoxazole and ethoxyphenyl on C4-isoxazole) and 16b (methoxyphenyl on C3-isoxazole and n-propoxyphenyl on C4-isoxazole) were active with SI = 1087 and 38, respectively. Among the set of compounds with the acetic moiety, structurally more similar to mofezolac (SI = 6329), SI ranged between 1.4 and 943. It is noteworthy that 17b (n-propoxyphenyl on both C3- and C4-isoxazole) were found to be a COX-2 slightly selective inhibitor with SI = 0.072 (COX-1 IC50 > 50 μM and COX-2 IC50 = 3.6 μM). Platelet aggregation induced by arachidonic acid (AA) can be in vitro suppressed by the synthesized compounds, without affecting of the secondary hemostasia, confirming the biological effect provided by the selective inhibition of COX-1. A positive profile of hemocompatibility in relation to erythrocyte and platelet toxicity was observed. Additionally, these compounds exhibited a positive profile of hemocompatibility and reduced cytotoxicity. Quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) models and molecular modelling (Ligand and Structure based virtual screening procedures) provide key information on the physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties of the COX-1 inhibitors as well as new insights into the mechanisms of inhibition that will be used to guide the development of more effective and selective compounds. X-ray analysis was used to confirm the chemical structure of 14 (MSA17).

Abstract
Activated platelets may interact with various types of leukocytes such as monocytes, neutrophils, dendritic cells, and lymphocytes, trigger intercellular signal transduction, and thus lead to thrombosis and synthesis of massive inflammatory mediators. Elevated levels of circulating platelet-leukocyte aggregates have been found in patients with thrombotic or inflammatory diseases. This article reviews the latest research on the formation, function, and detection methods of platelet-leukocyte aggregates and their role in the onset of Kawasaki disease, so as to provide new ideas for studying the pathogenesis of Kawasaki disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS This study aimed to evaluate whether the use of antiplatelet agents increases the risk of bleeding after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and to determine the appropriate time to discontinue antiplatelet agents to minimize complications. METHODS This retrospective observational study utilized a collected dataset of patients who underwent ESD for gastric adenoma and cancer between January 2010 and December 2020. Patients were classified into three groups according to antiplatelet agent use and discontinuation status. We investigated the risk of post-ESD bleeding with different interruption times and antiplatelet agent types. RESULTS Of 1879 patients, 1389 were non-users, 190 were in the continuous group, and 203 were in the interrupted group. The rates of overall and delayed bleeding were significantly higher in patients who continued or were interrupted within three days before ESD than in the non-users and interrupted group (6.3% vs. 1.2%, p < 0.001, 6.3% vs. 2.5%, p = 0.01, respectively). Significant differences in delayed bleeding between the continuous and interrupted groups decreased with longer cessation periods. In multivariate analysis, continuous antiplatelet agents were still the strongest risk factor for bleeding (OR 2.81, 95% CI 1.14-6.90). Lower third location and longer procedure times were also independent risk factors for post-ESD bleeding (OR 2.75; 95% CI 1.08-6.97; OR 1.02; 95% CI 1.01-1.02). CONCLUSION Continuous antiplatelet agent use increases the risk of delayed bleeding after gastric ESD. Therefore, the optimal timing of interruption, rather than the type of antiplatelet agent, should be considered to avoid an additional risk of bleeding and thromboembolism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) of aspirin plus clopidogrel is commonly used in patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms treated with stent-assisted coil (SAC) embolization. However, the unpredictable clopidogrel efficacy of the 5%-55% nonresponders limits its use. Ticagrelor, as a potential alternative of clopidogrel, is an antiplatelet agent with low resistance rates but uncertain efficacy and safety in these patients. METHODS A single-center cohort study was performed to compare the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor with clopidogrel in the DAPT regimen in patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms and treated with SAC. The patients with clopidogrel resistance identified as inadequate adenosine diphosphate inhibition rate determined by thromboelastography were treated with ticagrelor instead, and both drugs achieved adequate suppression of platelet aggregation when stents were implanted. The occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) and bleeding events was recorded through 6 months follow-up. RESULTS Data from 86 patients with 99 unruptured intracranial aneurysms and treated by SAC with clopidogrel were compared with those from 108 patients with 111 aneurysms and treated with ticagrelor. Neither the baseline characteristics nor the incidence of the MACCE or bleeding events differed between the groups. Ticagrelor exerted significantly higher adenosine diphosphate inhibition rate than that of the clopidogrel. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the incidence of MACCE was related to hematocrit and fibrinogen levels. CONCLUSIONS Ticagrelor seemed to be as effective and safe as clopidogrel for SAC in unruptured intracranial aneurysms. Hematocrit and fibrinogen levels were independent risk factors for the incidence of MACCE.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcranial motor-evoked potential (Tc-MEP) monitoring is usually performed during surgeries involving a risk of damaging brain motor areas. However, it involves a risk of bite injuries. We report a case of severe tongue laceration from Tc-MEP stimulation during carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in a patient taking antiplatelet agents. CASE PRESENTATION A 74-year-old man on antiplatelet therapy was scheduled for CEA under general anesthesia with intraoperative Tc-MEP monitoring. Bite blocks were not inserted. Postoperatively, we observed a tongue laceration with severe bleeding, which was sutured. The difficulties in tongue movement persisted for ≥ 1 month postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS Bite injuries during Tc-MEP may induce severe bleeding in patients on antiplatelets. The complications of tongue bite injuries may persist, decreasing the patients' quality of life. Hence, during Tc-MEP monitoring, it is important to use soft bite blocks and to check the patient's face and the position of the tracheal tube intraoperatively.

Abstract
Hip fractures are among the most common fractures operated by orthopedic surgeons. Many elderly patients, who account for a significant percentage of hip fractures, suffer from medical conditions requiring antiplatelet and anticoagulant administration. Meanwhile, considerable evidence recommends early surgery within 48b hours of admission. We aim to review the existing evidence regarding the perioperative management of antiplatelet and anticoagulant drugs in hip fractures. It was concluded that surgery for hip fractures in patients with antiplatelet drug consumption should not be delayed unless a clear contraindication exists. Active reversal strategies are indicated for patients with hip fractures and warfarin therapy. However, evidence for the safety of these agents in pregnancy, breastfeeding state, and adolescence has not yet been established. Little data exists about perioperative management of direct-acting oral anticoagulants in hip fractures. Early surgery after 12-24 hours of drug cessation has been suggested in studies; however, it should be employed cautiously. Despite extensive research, the importance of the issue necessitates additional higher-quality studies.

Abstract
Korean guidelines for nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced peptic ulcer were previously developed in 2009 with the collaboration of the Korean College of Helicobacter and Upper Gastrointestinal Research and Korean Society of Gastroenterology. However, the previous guidelines were based mainly upon a review of the relevant literature and expert opinion. Therefore, the guidelines need to be revised. We organized a guideline Development Committee for drug-related peptic ulcer under the auspices of the Korean College of Helicobacter and Upper Gastrointestinal Research in 2017 and developed nine statements, including four for NSAIDs, three for aspirin and other antiplatelet agents, and two for anticoagulants through a de novo process founded on evidence-based medicine that included a literature search and a meta-analysis, A consensus was reached through the application of the modified Delphi method. The primary target of these guidelines is adult patients undergoing long-term treatment with NSAIDs, aspirin or other antiplatelet agents and anticoagulants. The revised guidelines reflect the expert consensus and is intended to assist clinicians in the management and prevention of drug-induced peptic ulcer and associated conditions.

In this study, a guideline development committee for drug-induced peptic ulcers was organized under the Korean College of Helicobacter and Upper Gastrointestinal Research in 2017. Nine statements were developed, including four for NSAID, three for aspirin and other antiplatelet agents, and two for anticoagulants through de novo processes based on evidence-based medicine, such as a literature search, meta-analysis, and the consensus was established using the modified Delphi method. The primary target of this guideline was adult patients taking long-term NSAIDs, aspirin, or other antiplatelet agent and anticoagulants. The revised guidelines reflect the consensus of expert opinions and are intended to assist relevant clinicians in the management and prevention of drug-induced peptic ulcers and associated conditions.

Early multidrug treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19) and reduced mortality among nursing home (or outpatient/ambulatory) residents. Med Hypotheses 2021; 153:110622.

Abstract
The outbreak of COVID-19 from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has spread all over the world with tremendous morbidity and mortality in the elderly. In-hospital treatment addresses the multifaceted nature of the illness including initial viral replication, cytokine storm, and endothelial injury with thrombosis. We identified nine reports of early treatment outcomes in COVID-19 nursing home patients. Multi-drug therapy including hydroxychloroquine with one or more anti-infectives, corticosteroids, and antithrombotic anti-blood clotting agents can be extended to seniors in the nursing home setting without hospitalization. Data from nine studies found hydroxychloroquine-based multidrug regimens were associated with a statistically significant > 60% reduction in mortality. Going forward, we conclude that early empiric treatment for the elderly with COVID-19 in the nursing home setting (or similar congregated settings with elderly residents/patients e.g. LTF or ALF) has a reasonable probability of success and acceptable safety. This group remains our highest at-risk group and warrants acute treatment focus prior to symptoms worsening. Given the rapidity and severity of SARS-CoV-2 outbreaks in nursing homes, in-center treatment of acute COVID-19 patients is a reasonable strategy to reduce the risks of hospitalization and death. If elderly high-risk patients in such congregated nursing home type settings are allowed to worsen with no early treatment, they may be too sick and fragile to benefit from in-hospital therapeutics and are at risk for pulmonary failure, life-ending micro-thrombi of the lungs, kidneys etc. The issue is timing of therapeutics, and we argue that early treatment before hospitalization, is the right time and can potentially save lives, especially among our higher-risk elderly populations hit hardest by severe illness and death from COVID-19. We must reiterate, we are talking about ‘early’ treatment before the disease is far along in the disease sequelae where the patient then needs hospitalization and aggressive interventions. We are referring to the initial days e.g. day one, post infection when symptoms emerge or there is strong clinical suspicion. This early therapeutic option deserves serious and urgent consideration by the medical establishment and respective decision-makers. Doctors must be allowed their clinical discretion in how they optimally treat their patients. Doctors must be brave and trust their skilled judgements and do all to save the lives of their patients. We therefore hypothesize that early outpatient ambulatory treatment, once initiated as soon as symptoms begin in high-risk positive persons, would significantly reduce hospitalizations and prevent deaths. Specifically, the provision of early multi-drug sequenced therapy with repurposed drugs will reduce hospitalization and death in elderly patients being cared for in long-term-care facilities. The most important implications of our hypothesis are: 1) hospitalizations and deaths would be reduced 2) transmission would be reduced due to the mitigation of symptoms and 3) recovery following infection and treatment provides for natural exposure immunity that is broad based, durable, and robust (helping towards natural immunity within the population). The end result is reduced strain on hospitals and systems that would allow for other non-COVID illnesses to receive care.

Abstract
The Korean guidelines for the Clinical Guidelines for Drug-related Peptic Ulcer were revised under the Korean College of Helicobacter and Upper Gastrointestinal Research in 2020. In these revised guidelines, treatment for Helicobacter pylori infections is recommended in patients with a history of peptic ulcers and are receiving long-term low-dose aspirin therapy to prevent peptic ulcers and complications. The maintenance of anti-ulcer drugs, such as proton pump inhibitors, is also recommended after H. pylori eradication if patients require other antiplatelet agents or anticoagulants. Regardless of H. pylori eradication, when patients with a history of peptic ulcer take long-term low dose aspirin, the concomitant use of a proton pump inhibitor according to the severity of the peptic ulcer is recommended.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The practice of platelet transfusion to mitigate the deleterious effects of antiplatelet agents on spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remains common. However, the effect of antiplatelet agents on patients with ICH is still controversial and transfusing platelets is not without risk. We performed a meta-analysis in order to determine the effect of platelet transfusion on antiplatelet agent associated ICH. METHODS We queried PubMed, Embase, and Scopus databases to identify cohort studies, case-control studies, and randomized control trials. Study quality was graded by the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale and Cochrane Risk of Bias tool, as appropriate. Outcomes of interest included functional independence as measured by the modified Rankin Scale and mortality. We compared patients with antiplatelet agent associated ICH who received platelet transfusion to those that did not. RESULTS We identified 625 articles. After reviewing 44 full text articles, 5 were deemed appropriate for meta-analysis, including 4 cohort studies and one randomized control trial. Considerable heterogeneity was present among the studies (I2 > 81% for all analyses). We did not find a significant effect of platelet transfusions on functional independence (Odds Ratio [OR] 1.3, 95% CI.0.45-3.9) or mortality (OR 0.58, 95% Confidence Interval [CI] 0.12-2.6). CONCLUSION We found no evidence for an effect of platelet transfusions on functional independence or mortality following antiplatelet associated ICH. More randomized trials are needed to evaluate platelet transfusion in patients with ICH and proven reduced platelet activity or those requiring neurosurgical intervention.

Abstract
Blood blister-like aneurysm (BBA) of the internal carotid artery (ICA) is highly challenging to treat owing to its variable morphology and tendency for rupture and regrowth. In this study, we attempted to discuss the key techniques for overlapping low-profile visualized intraluminal support (LVIS) stent-assisted coil embolization, which is used for treating BBAs in our center. Clinical characteristics, endovascular treatment details, outcomes, and follow-up results of 13 patients with BBA treated at our center were retrospectively evaluated in this study. Overlapping LVIS stent-assisted coil embolization was successfully performed in all 13 patients of ruptured BBAs located in the ICAs. Recurrence of aneurysm was observed in 4 cases (30.8%) during the angiographic follow-up; in 2 of these cases, spontaneous healing was observed after discontinuation of antiplatelet therapy. Further, 2 patients with recurrence underwent endovascular treatment with complete obliteration of the aneurysm in one and occlusion of the parent artery after Onyx embolization and stent placement in the other. The overall obliteration rate of the BBAs was 92.3% (12/13). One patient (7.7%) developed intraoperative rupture of the aneurysm with coils protruding outside; however, no severe hemorrhage or neurological dysfunction occurred owing to timely embolization. Overlapping LVIS stent-assisted coil embolization is effective for management of BBA of the ICA. Appropriate adjustment in antiplatelet therapy may improve healing in recurrent cases.

Abstract
Background: Prior meta-analyses showed that treatment with cilostazol, with or without aspirin, significantly reduced the incidence of recurrent ischemic stroke, occurrence of hemorrhagic stroke, and frequency of other serious vascular adverse events. Methods: This review highlights the value of the randomized controlled trial (RCT) by Toyoda et al. entitled, “Dual antiplatelet therapy using cilostazol for secondary prevention in patients with high-risk ischemic stroke in Japan: a multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial.” Here, dual therapy consisting of cilostazol and another antiplatelet agent was used to prevent secondary ischemic stroke in high-risk Japanese patients. Results: Patients on dual therapy consisting of cilostazol/aspirin or cilostazol/clopidogrel had significantly lower frequencies of recurrent stroke. However, there were significant differences in the incidence of attendant hemorrhagic complications utilizing mono or dual therapy. Conclusion: This RCT demonstrated the safety of dual therapy, consisting of cilostazol/aspirin or cilostazol/ clopidogrel, in preventing secondary ischemic stroke in a high-risk Japanese population. Further studies are required to generalize these findings to other patient populations worldwide.

Abstract
Background The Rumex acetosa has been used in medicinal treatment, food technology and phytotherapeutics in Eastern Asia and many other countries. However, its effect on cardiovascular system and antiplatelet activity remained to be known. In this study, we examined the antiplatelet activity of R. acetosa in detailed manner to understand underlying mechanism. Methods To study this, whole blood was obtained from male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats and aggregation of washed platelets measured using light transmission aggregometry. Intracellular calcium ion concentration ([Ca2+]i) was measured using Fura-2/AM while ATP release evaluated by luminometer. Activation of integrin αIIbβ3 analyzed by flow cytometry and clot retraction. Furthermore, we studied the signaling pathways mediated by R. acetosa extract by western blot analysis. Results R. acetosa extract markedly inhibited collagen-induced platelet aggregation and ATP release in a dose-dependent manner. It also suppressed [Ca2+]i mobilization, integrin αIIbβ3 activation and clot retraction. The extract significantly attenuated phosphorylation of the MAPK pathway (i.e., ERK1/2, JNK), MKK4, PI3K/Akt, and Src family kinase. Conclusion Taken together, this data suggests that R. acetosa extract exhibits anti-platelet activity via modulating MAPK, PI3K/Akt pathways, and integrin αIIbβ3-mediated inside-out and outside-in signaling, and it may protect against the development of platelet-related cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Ticagrelor, an antagonist of the platelet adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-P2Y12 receptor is recommended for patients with acute coronary syndromes. However, ticagrelor exposes to a risk of bleeding, the management of which is challenging because platelet transfusion is ineffective, and no antidote is yet available. We hypothesized that the vasopressor drug epinephrine could counter the antiplatelet effects of ticagrelor and restore platelet functions. We assessed in vitro the efficiency of epinephrine in restoring platelet aggregation inhibited by ticagrelor and investigated the underlying mechanisms. Washed platelet aggregation and secretion were measured upon stimulation by epinephrine alone or in combination with ADP, in the presence or absence of ticagrelor. Mechanistic investigations used P2Y1 and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors and included vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) and Akt phosphorylation assays as well as measurement of Ca2+ mobilisation. We found that epinephrine restored ADP-induced platelet aggregation, but not dense granule release. Epinephrine alone failed to induce aggregation whereas it fully induced VASP dephosphorylation and Akt phosphorylation regardless of the presence of ticagrelor. In the presence of ticagrelor, blockage of the P2Y1 receptor prevented restoration of platelet aggregation by the combination of epinephrine and ADP, as well as intracellular Ca2+ mobilisation. In combination with ADP, epinephrine induced platelet aggregation of ticagrelor-treated platelets through inhibition of the cAMP pathway and activation of the PI3K pathway, thus enabling the P2Y1 receptor signalling and subsequent Ca2+ mobilisation. This proof-of-concept study needs to be challenged in vivo for the management of bleeding in ticagrelor-treated patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients on either antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy may need procedures performed under peripheral nerve blocks in preference to general anaesthesia techniques. The risk of bleeding associated with peripheral nerve blocks under these circumstances remains unknown. This systematic review evaluates the incidence of bleeding complications following peripheral nerve blocks in patients receiving antiplatelet and/or anticoagulant medication. METHOD All English, French and Spanish publications on peripheral nerve blocks in patients receiving antiplatelet and/or anticoagulant medication, from 1978 to 2018 from various sources including Pubmed, were reviewed. Publications on neuraxial anaesthesia (spinal or epidural) and eye blocks were excluded. RESULTS Twenty-four articles were selected, including six observational studies and 18 case reports. Patients received antiplatelet agents only, in 4 studies, anticoagulants only in 14 studies, and both in 6 studies. In the observational studies, 80 bleeding complications (haematoma or minor bleeding at the puncture site) were identified following 9738 peripheral nerve blocks. Amongst case reports, 15 bleeding complications were noted following 50 peripheral nerve blocks. Bleeding complications were reported mostly with lumbar plexus blocks (1 requirement for blood transfusion, 1 catheter embolization, 1 surgical exploration and 1 death). The overall estimate of the incidence of bleeding complications was 0.82% (0.64%-1.0%). CONCLUSION This systematic review found that bleeding complications following peripheral nerve blocks were rare in patients receiving antiplatelet and/or anticoagulant medication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Stent thrombosis is a serious complication after percutaneous coronary intervention and femoropopliteal endovascular intervention. The aim of this study was to determine the antithrombotic effects of a direct factor Xa inhibitor edoxaban alone or in combination with antiplatelet agents in a rat model of stent thrombosis. METHODS Stainless steel stents (4 stents per rat) were placed in an extracorporeal arteriovenous shunt. The shunt was inserted into the carotid artery and the jugular vein in each rat to circulate blood. Stent thrombosis was induced by exposing the stents to arterial blood for 30 min. Protein content of the thrombus was measured. Edoxaban and antiplatelet agents (aspirin, clopidogrel, and ticagrelor) were orally administered before the thrombus induction. RESULTS Edoxaban (0.3-3 mg/kg), clopidogrel (1-10 mg/kg), aspirin (10-100 mg/kg), and ticagrelor (0.3-3 mg/kg) exerted significant and dose-dependent antithrombotic effects in a rat stent thrombosis model. The effect of edoxaban was comparable to that of antiplatelet agents. The combination of submaximal doses of edoxaban and clopidogrel or aspirin significantly potentiated the antithrombotic effects compared with antiplatelet agents alone. CONCLUSION These results suggest that edoxaban alone and in combination with clopidogrel or aspirin are promising antithrombotic therapies for the prevention of stent thrombosis.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes has an increasing prevalence. Life expectancy is dominated by cardiovascular risk, which is the leading cause of death in these patients. Up to one third of diabetic patients will develop diabetic nephropathy related to micro-angiopathy. Renal impairment further increases cardiovascular risk. Reducing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality is a major public health issue, as well as early preventing and managing chronic kidney disease (CKD). Good glycemic control prevents the micro-vascular complications of the disease (retinopathy, nephropathy, etc.) and, more recently recognized through prolonged monitoring of the VADT cohort, prevents cardiovascular complications. Control of blood pressure and dyslipidemia are essential in primary or secondary cardiovascular prevention. In addition, the blockers of the renin-angiotensin system slow down the progression of the MRC. Elderly patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) form another growing group of the nephrologist daily patient pool. Especially for very elderly patients with comorbidities, the question of favoring conservative treatment rather than starting or pursuing dialysis may arise. Survival and quality of life are indeed not necessarily better in elderly patients undergoing dialysis, complications can occur eventually leading to discontinuation, and are occasionally associated with a feeling of stubbornness. Creation of prognostic score is a useful tool to help the decision-making process. However, dialogue with the patient and his/her family, as well as multidisciplinary collaboration remain fundamentals to determine the most suitable care.

Abstract
Background Optimal anticoagulation strategy for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in end-stage heart failure patients with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) requiring left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation remains uncertain. Presently, there are no large-scale randomized studies comparing outcomes of alternative anticoagulation strategies for CPB in this patient population. A novel antiplatelet agent – cangrelor, which is a potent P2Y12 inhibitor with robust antiplatelet efficacy, rapid reversibility, and measurable drug effect, has become available since 2015. Intraoperative anticoagulation for CPB using cangrelor with heparin has not been reported before. Case presentation We report the case of a 47-year-old male with ischemic cardiomyopathy and acute HIT, who underwent an urgent LVAD implantation using cangrelor with heparin for anticoagulation on CPB. This novel strategy resulted in satisfactory anticoagulation for CPB without perioperative thromboembolic events or major bleeding requiring reoperation. Conclusions Cangrelor with heparin was an effective anticoagulation strategy for CPB in this critically ill patient with acute HIT requiring an urgent LVAD implantation. Further studies are warranted to evaluate its efficacy and replicability in other patients with acute or subacute HIT who require urgent cardiac surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With the aging of the population and rising incidence of thromboembolic events, the usage of antiplatelet agents is also increasing. There are few reports yet on the management of antiplatelet agents for patients undergoing colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). AIMS The aim of this study is to evaluate whether continued administration of antiplatelet agents is associated with an increased rate of delayed bleeding after colorectal ESD. METHODS A total of 1022 colorectal neoplasms in 927 patients were dissected at Yokohama City University Hospital and its three affiliate hospitals between July 2012 and June 2017. We included the data of 919 lesions in the final analysis. The lesions were divided into three groups: the no-antiplatelet group (783 neoplasms), the withdrawal group (110 neoplasms), and the continuation group (26 neoplasms). RESULTS Among the 919 lesions, bleeding events occurred in a total of 31 (3.37%). The rate of bleeding after ESD was 3.3% (26/783), 4.5% (5/110), and 0% (0/26), respectively. There were no significant differences in the rate of bleeding after ESD among the three groups (the withdrawal group vs. the no-antiplatelet group, the continuation group vs. the no-antiplatelet group, and the withdrawal group vs. the continuation group). CONCLUSIONS Continued administration of antiplatelet agents is not associated with any increase in the risk of delayed bleeding after colorectal ESD. Prospective, randomized studies are necessary to determine whether treatment with antiplatelet agents must be interrupted prior to colorectal ESD in patients who are at a high risk of thromboembolic events.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Glycoprotein VI (GPVI) is the major platelet receptor for collagen-mediated platelet adhesion and activation. SAR264565 is an anti-GPVI-Fab, binds to GPVI with high affinity, and blocks GPVI function in human platelets in vitro. METHODS The effect of SAR26456 on platelet responsiveness in the blood of 21 healthy male subjects was investigated using Sakariassen's ex vivo thrombogenesis perfusion chamber model on a collagen-coated surface under conditions mimicking arterial flow. Ex vivo effects of SAR264565 (10 and 100 μg/mL) were investigated before administration of aspirin or clopidogrel to study subjects (baseline), after aspirin (2× 300 mg) administration alone, and after combined aspirin (2× 300 mg)/clopidogrel (600 mg) administration. Additional ex vivo and in vitro platelet tests were also performed. RESULTS Addition of SAR264565 to the perfusion chamber dose-dependently reduced platelet and fibrin deposition, reaching statistical significance at 100 μg/mL (415 ± 67 compared to 137 ± 36 platelets/cm2, [p < 0.01] and fibrin 0.095 ± 0.014 compared to 0.032 ± 0.008 μg/cm2, [p < 0.001]). Aspirin administration caused an additive and dose-dependent reduction of SAR264565-induced platelet and fibrin deposition. Combined aspirin/clopidogrel administration did not lead to additional SAR264565-induced inhibition of platelet or fibrin deposition. CONCLUSION GPVI antagonism by the anti-GPVI-Fab fragment SAR264565 dose-dependently inhibits platelet adhesion and fibrin formation on a collagen surface under arterial shear. Additive inhibition is observed after prior aspirin administration with no further amplification on top of a combination of aspirin with clopidogrel. Ex vivo antiplatelet tests confirmed a selective inhibiting effect of SAR264565 on collagen-induced platelet activation.

Abstract
Like all antithrombotic drugs, antiplatelet agents expose to a risk of bleeding complications. Clinical research has extensively focused on the efficacy of these drugs to reduce ischemic events. The bleeding risk associated with them was solely considered as an inevitable and acceptable complication. When two new potent P2Y12-receptor inhibitors, prasugrel and ticagrelor, were marketed, the risk of major bleeding increased. These new agents have modified the balance between the absolute risk reduction in ischemic events and the absolute risk increase in bleeding events. This paper is an update on the bleeding risk assessment associated with antiplatelet agents. It discusses the place of platelet function monitoring, and the optimal management of bleeding complications. It addresses the challenging issue of reversal of antiplatelet therapy, focusing especially on ticagrelor, which pharmacodynamics complicate bleeding management.

Abstract
Antiplatelet agents have for decades been used to improve outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndromes and have become increasingly valued, not only for their antithrombotic properties but also for their anti-inflammatory effects. The drug class continues to evolve as novel agents with increasingly efficacious antiplatelet actions are identified. This review will discuss antiplatelet agents, including aspirin, the P2Y12 receptor antagonists and the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors, that are currently used to treat patients with unstable angina and myocardial infarction, focusing on their pharmacological properties and the clinical evidence supporting their use.

Abstract
In addition to platelet aggregation, coagulation activation is considered to be involved in arterial thrombosis. In this study, we determined antithrombotic effects of edoxaban, an oral factor Xa (FXa) inhibitor, as both a monotherapy and in combination with antiplatelet agents in a rat model of arterial thrombosis. We further examined its effects on a procoagulant biomarker and bleeding. Arterial thrombosis was induced by topical application of 15% ferric chloride to rat abdominal aortas. Bleeding time was measured by a tail incision method. Edoxaban, clopidogrel, and aspirin were orally administered 30min, 4h, and 2h before thrombus or bleeding induction. As a biomarker of coagulation activation, plasma thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT) was measured. Edoxaban dose-dependently prevented arterial thrombosis in a manner comparable to clopidogrel and aspirin. The combination of edoxaban plus clopidogrel or edoxaban plus aspirin significantly potentiated the antithrombotic effects compared with these drugs alone. The combination of edoxaban and clopidogrel was more potent than clopidogrel and aspirin. Plasma TAT concentration was elevated after thrombus induction and suppressed by edoxaban and clopidogrel, but not by aspirin, suggesting P2Y12 receptor-mediated platelet procoagulant activity. Bleeding time was prolonged by the coadministration of edoxaban and clopidogrel, but not by edoxaban and aspirin. In conclusion, the present study demonstrates that the monotherapy with edoxaban and combination therapy with edoxaban plus clopidogrel or edoxaban plus aspirin are promising options for the prevention of arterial thrombosis as effective as the standard antiplatelet agents; however, a combination of edoxaban and clopidogrel increased the risk of bleeding.

Abstract
AIMS Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and stenting require triple antithrombotic therapy according to current ESC guidelines. The purpose of this study was to assess guideline implementation and predictive factors of the prognosis related to ESC guideline adherence. METHODS AND RESULTS We enrolled consecutive AF patients referred for PCI with stent from 2011 to 2014. Among 371 patients (72% male; mean age 76 ± 11) followed up for 505 ± 372 days (median 391, interquartile range 550 days), 118 (45%) undergoing elective coronary stenting and 41 (31%) among those with acute coronary syndrome were guideline adherent. Oral anticoagulation (OAC) before hospitalization was the only factor independently associated with guideline adherence (OR, 0.45; 95% CI 0.26-0.77; p=0.003). OAC underuse and antiplatelet therapy (APT) underuse were independently associated with increased risks of death (OR 5.55; 95% CI 2.42-13.47; p<0.0001 and OR 5.56; 95% CI, 2.17-14.65; p=0.0004, respectively) and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) (OR 4.18; 95% CI 2.05-8.79; p<0.0001 and OR 4.81; 95% CI, 2.09-11.18; p=0.0002, respectively). CONCLUSION Guidelines for antithrombotic therapy in patients with AF who undergo PCI and stent implantation are still poorly followed in clinical practice. OAC and APT underuse were both associated with an increased risk of death and MACE in this population.

Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether we have to stop the antiplatelet agents prior to hemiarthroplasty surgery in patients with displaced femur neck fractures to reduce postoperative complications. Materials and Methods We enrolled forty-three patients with displaced femur neck fractures who were treated by bipolar hemiarthroplasty and were taking antiplatelet agents. Group I included 21 patients who discontinued antiplatelet agents and had delayed operations at an average 5.7 days and group II included 22 patients who had had early operations within 24 hours without stopping the antiplatelet agents. We compared the pre- and postoperative levels of hemoglobin, the volume of postoperative transfusion requirement and complications. Student's t-test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results The average differences between preoperative and postoperative hemoglobin was 1.4±0.4 g/dL decrease in group I and 2.1±0.5 g/dL decrease in group II (P<0.001). Patients who received a blood transfusion were 11 in group I and 13 in group II (P=0.66). Total number of blood transfusion was 13 pints in group I and 18 pints in group II (P=0.23). Pneumonia occurred in one patient in each group. Four pressure sores and three diaper rashes were developed in group I. But there were no patients requiring massive transfusion, reoperation due to hematoma and infection in each group. Conclusion Although continuous taking of antiplatelet agents in displaced femur neck fracture is associated with an increased risk of postoperative bleeding, taking an antiplatelet agent itself is not a contraindication of early surgery.

Abstract
The platelet thrombus is the major pathologic entity in acute coronary syndromes, and antiplatelet agents are a mainstay of therapy. However, individual patient responsiveness to current antiplatelet drugs is variable, and all drugs carry a risk of bleeding. An understanding of the complex role of Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in regulating thrombosis offers opportunities for the development of novel individualized antiplatelet treatment. However, deciphering the platelet regulatory function of PGE2 has long been confounded by non-standardized experimental conditions, extrapolation of murine data to humans, and phenotypic differences in PGE2 response. This review synthesizes past and current knowledge about PGE2 effects on platelet biology, presents a rationale for standardization of experimental protocols, and provides insight into a molecular mechanism by which PGE2-activated pathways could be targeted for new personalized antiplatelet therapy to inhibit pathologic thrombosis without affecting hemostasis.

Abstract
Dipyridamole is a platelet inhibitor indicated for the secondary prevention of transient ischemic attack. It inhibits the enzyme phosphodiesterase, elevates cAMP and cGMP levels and prevents platelet aggregation. Dipyridamole inhibits the cellular uptake of adenosine into red blood cells, platelets and endothelial cells that results in increased extracellular availability of adenosine, leading to modulation of cardiovascular function. The antiplatelet action of dipyridamole might offer therapeutic benefits in secondary stroke prevention in combination with aspirin. Inflammation and oxidative stress play an important role in atherosclerosis and thrombosis development, leading to stroke progression. Studies demonstrated anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and anti-proliferative actions of dipyridamole. These pleiotropic potentials of dipyridamole might contribute to improved therapeutic outcomes when used with aspirin in preventing secondary stroke. Dipyridamole was documented as a coronary vasodilator 5 decades ago. The therapeutic failure of dipyridamole as a coronary vasodilator is linked with induction of 'coronary steal' phenomenon in which by dilating resistance vessels in non-ischemic zone, dipyridamole diverts the already reduced blood flow away from the area of ischemic myocardium. Dipyridamole at high-dose could cause a marked 'coronary steal' effect. Dipyridamole, however, at low-dose could have a minimal hemodynamic effect. Low-dose dipyridamole treatment has a therapeutic potential in partially preventing diabetes mellitus-induced experimental vascular endothelial and renal abnormalities by enhancing endothelial nitric oxide signals and inducing renovascular reduction of oxidative stress. In spite of plenteous research on dipyridamole's use in clinics, its precise clinical application is still obscure. This review sheds lights on pleiotropic pharmacological actions and therapeutic potentials of dipyridamole.

Abstract
Spiropiperidine indoline-substituted diaryl ureas had been identified as antagonists of the P2Y1 receptor. Enhancements in potency were realized through the introduction of a 7-hydroxyl substitution on the spiropiperidinylindoline chemotype. SAR studies were conducted to improve PK and potency, resulting in the identification of compound 3e, a potent, orally bioavailable P2Y1 antagonist with a suitable PK profile in preclinical species. Compound 3e demonstrated a robust antithrombotic effect in vivo and improved bleeding risk profile compared to the P2Y12 antagonist clopidogrel in rat efficacy/bleeding models.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on maintenance haemodialysis are predisposed to bleeding and thrombotic events. Recently thrombin generation assay (TGA) has been introduced as a laboratory assessment of global haemostatic potential. We investigated the global haemostatic potential assessed by TGA in ESRD patients on haemodialysis and patients who developed vascular access thrombosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 69 ESRD patients who underwent haemodialysis (58 stable patients and 11 vascular access thrombosis patients) were included and 33 healthy controls were included. TGA was performed on the calibrated automated thrombogram using tissue factor with/without addition of thrombomodulin or activated protein C, producing three parameters including lag time, endogenous thrombin potential (ETP) and peak thrombin. RESULTS Haemodialysis patients showed low ETP values measured by thrombin generation assay compared with the healthy controls. Interestingly, patients with vascular access thrombosis exhibited short PT and aPTT and increased resistance of coagulation inhibition to APC anticoagulant protein, reflecting hyper-coagulability. Haemodialysis patients who are taking anti-platelet agents showed decreased thrombin inhibition rate, representing antithrombotic effect of anti-platelet agents. CONCLUSION Whereas the haemodialysis patients showed hypo-coagulability, the patients with vascular access thrombosis exhibited hyper-coagulability. Further study is required to investigate how this haemostatic potential may be utilized to guide the physician to more effective management of haemostatic complication.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the anti-inflammatory effect of antiplatelet agent, clopidogrel, in experimentally induced inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). MATERIALS AND METHODS TNBS induced Crohn's disease model and oxazolone induced ulcerative colitis model were used to evaluate the role of clopidogrel in IBD. Spargue Dawley female and Wistar male rats were used respectively. The colitis was induced by a single intra-colonic application of TNBS (0.25 ml, 120 mg/ml in 50% ethanol) and oxazolone (450 μl 5% oxazolone in 50% ethanol). Rats were divided into four groups (n=6) in each model namely normal control, sham control, test and standard group. Drug treatment was carried out for 21 days. After 21 days, animals were sacrificed and evaluated for weight change, colon mucosal damage index (CMDI), disease activity Index (DAI) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity. RESULTS Results showed that clopidogrel provided significant protection against mucosal damage in both the models of IBD. It significantly reduced (P<0.05) the decrease in body weight and CMDI, DAI and MPO scores. CONCLUSION The results indicate that clopidogrel may be effective in treatment of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Platelet inhibition may be one of the mechanism for effectiveness of clopidogrel in the treatment of IBD.

Abstract
Aspirin and clopidogrel are important components of medical therapy for patients with acute coronary syndromes, for those who received coronary artery stents and in the secondary prevention of ischaemic stroke. Despite their use, a significant number of patients experience recurrent adverse ischaemic events. Interindividual variability of platelet aggregation in response to these antiplatelet agents may be an explanation for some of these recurrent events, and small trials have linked "aspirin and/or clopidogrel resistance", as measured by platelet function tests, to adverse events. We systematically reviewed all available evidence on the prevalence of aspirin/clopidogrel resistance, their possible risk factors and their association with clinical outcomes. We also identified articles showing possible treatments. After analyzing the data on different laboratory methods, we found that aspirin/clopidogrel resistance seems to be associated with poor clinical outcomes and there is currently no standardized or widely accepted definition of clopidogrel resistance. Therefore, we conclude that specific treatment recommendations are not established for patients who exhibit high platelet reactivity during aspirin/clopidogrel therapy or who have poor platelet inhibition by clopidogrel.

Abstract
Posterior cranial fossa subdural hematomas and extension of the subdural hematoma to the cerebellopontine angle is rarely seen and the concurrent development of acute peripheral facial palsy and the management strategy have not previously been reported in this pathology because of its rarity. We present this case to emphasize that minor head trauma may lead to a posterior cranial fossa hematoma extending to the cerebellopontine angle and cause peripheral facial palsy in patients using aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid). In addition, partial evacuation and waiting for the resorption of the hematoma may help to prevent damage to the 7th and 8th cranial nerves.
