For instance, healthcare policies that influence critical time-matrices, endovascular thrombectomy techniques that may enhance success rate or prevent complications, or advanced imaging techniques that allow precise prognosis or expansion of treatment populations, should be evaluated.

With World Health Organization's (WHO) effort on ensuring equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines, vaccination rate may increase in the near future.\n\nOn the other hand, vaccination hesitancy has emerged as a major hindrance on the global vaccination campaigns in certain areas due to safety concerns, social factors, and public health policies. For instance, a recent survey conducted in Hong Kong showed a low vaccine acceptance rate of 37%. Long-term safety concerns and post-vaccination events relayed by the social media maybe reasons for vaccination hesitancy. Among which, cerebrovascular accidents (CVA) after vaccination were one of the most frequently reported post-vaccination events. These reports ranged from ischemic strokes in elderly patients with multiple cardiovascular co-morbidities, to hemorrhage strokes in otherwise \"young-and-fit\" adults. While many of these events were investigated by the COVID-19 immunization expert committee, an important premise to address the apprehension of CVA after vaccination is the provision of evidence-based information of the impact of COVID-19 vaccines on brain health.\n\nIn this prospective, longitudinal, observational study, we aim to elucidate the relationship between COVID-19 vaccines and cerebrovascular health in healthy citizens in a population-based cohort.",[25,26,27,54,55,56,28,29,57,58],"Dementia","Brain Ischemia","Alzheimer Disease","Arterial Thromboembolism","Venous Thromboembolism","2026-02-21",{"date":61,"type":34},"2026-02-24",{"date":63,"type":34},"2021-07-05",{"date":65,"type":20},"2026-12-31",{"name":40,"class":41},1,{"id":69,"slug":70,"hasResults":11,"nctId":71,"briefTitle":72,"officialTitle":73,"acronym":74,"eligibilityCriteria":75,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":16,"minAge":17,"maxAge":76,"enrollmentInfo":77,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":21,"phases":4,"briefSummary":79,"conditions":80,"keywords":4,"overallStatus":30,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":82,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":83,"startDateStruct":85,"completionDateStruct":87,"leadSponsor":89,"locationsCount":67},"100468304","doac-in-chinese-patients-with-atrial-fibrillation-100468304","NCT05378035","DOAC in Chinese Patients With Atrial Fibrillation","Direct Oral Anticoagulant Levels in Chinese Patients With Atrial Fibrillation - A Real- World Pharmacokinetic Study","DOAC-REAL","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Chinese nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) patients on apixaban, dabigatran, edoxaban, or rivaroxaban for 6 months or more.\n* Patients aged 18-80 years old.\n* Patients who are able to provide an informed consent.\n* Patients who are indicated for elective medical procedures that require interruption of direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) for 48 hours.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients who developed thromboembolism (e.g. ischemic stroke, ischemic bowel, etc.) or major systemic bleeding (e.g. intracerebral haemorrhage, gastrointestinal bleeding) during DOAC usage.\n* Patients with creatinine clearance by Cockroft-Gault formula ≤ 30 mL\u002Fmin.\n* Patients with inappropriate DOAC dosages with respect to age, body weight, and creatinine clearance.\n* Patients who receive DOAC with indications other than NVAF, such as history of mitral stenosis, metallic heart valve, thrombophilia, venous thromboembolism, etc.\n* Patients with conditions that alter haemostasis besides DOAC use, such as essential thrombocytosis, hepatic congestion, hepatic failure with coagulopathy, etc.","80 Years",{"count":78,"type":20},427,"Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have emerged as safe and efficacious ischemic stroke prophylaxis for non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). All four DOACs - apixaban, dabigatran, edoxaban, and rivaroxaban - were shown to reduce the risk of major bleeding compared to warfarin. The predictable pharmacokinetic profiles of DOACs also favour their use over warfarin. Together with increasing AF incidence due to population ageing, increased AF detection, and territory-wide reimbursement schemes, DOAC prescriptions have been surging worldwide. In Hong Kong, more than 78,354 patients received DOAC from January 2009 through April 2021 according to the Hospital Authority registry.\n\nThe more liberal use of DOACs has led to new issues that require a thorough understanding of ethnic-specific DOAC pharmacokinetic profiles. For instance, 12- 15% of anticoagulated patients annually required interventional procedures that involve temporary discontinuation of DOAC for 48 hours or more. Although guideline-based periprocedural DOAC interruption resulted in a low 30-day thromboembolism rate of 0.16% - 0.6% in a Caucasian cohort, same measures for elective colonoscopies in a local population-based study resulted in a 30-day periprocedural thromboembolism rate of up to 2.2%. Although these studies cannot be compared directly, the remarkable interethnic discrepancy between the two cohorts warrants further pharmacokinetic and pharmacogenomic studies. More importantly, quantifying residual DOAC levels during the interruption periods may imply on duration of periprocedural DOAC interruption, length of hospital-stay, and the risk of thromboembolic and bleeding complications.\n\nMapping inter- and intra-individual variations in DOAC levels may also impact on the management of ischemic stroke among DOAC recipients. Epidemiological studies have shown alarmingly up to 13% of acute ischemic stroke patients were on anticoagulation prior to stroke onset with increasing number of DOAC. These patients received low rates of recanalization therapy due to apprehension of bleeding complications, thus compromised survival and neurological recovery. A prospective study that reveals Asian-specific DOAC pharmacokinetic profiles may inform cross-disciplinary, territory-wide periprocedural care and acute stroke intervention strategy for the rapidly expanding DOAC population.",[81,25,26,28,29,57,58],"Atrial Fibrillation","2025-01-27",{"date":84,"type":34},"2025-01-29",{"date":86,"type":34},"2022-09-28",{"date":88,"type":20},"2027-12-31",{"name":40,"class":41}]
