The impact of CYP2C9, VKORC1, and CYP4F2 polymorphisms on warfarin dose requirement in Saudi patients Open
Background Limited data are available on factors that affect warfarin dose requirement in Saudi patients. Saudis are among the underrepresented ethnic groups in warfarin pharmacogenetics research. The present study investigated the frequen…

A randomized crossover design study comparing the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of 2 single doses of oral aspirin (75 mg v 150 mg) in pregnant women at risk of preeclampsia: implications on assessing aspirin response and patient adherence to therapy Open
Compared to the 75-mg dose, 150 mg of aspirin more effectively inhibits thromboxane B2, providing rationale for further investigation of effectiveness of higher doses for preeclampsia prevention. Despite limitations, measuring s…

Determination of Dabigatran Concentration in Human Plasma and Breast Milk Open
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is an important cause of death following childbirth. Dabigatran etexilate can be a useful prophylaxis in susceptible women during the postpartum period. However, it is not clear whether dabigatran is excreted i…

Assessment of exposure to direct oral anticoagulants in elderly hospitalised patients Open
Summary It is unclear whether elderly patients established on direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have greater exposure to these drugs, which could subsequently increase their risk of bleeding. We assessed DOAC exposure and factors affectin…

Elderly people are inherently sensitive to the pharmacological activity of rivaroxaban: implications for DOAC prescribing Open
According to both trial and clinical data on direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) elderly patients are at greatest risk of bleeding. It is unclear whether age intrinsically affects anticoagulation response. To investigate the age-related sen…

Investigation of dabigatran secretion into breast milk: Implications for oral thromboprophylaxis in post‐partum women Open
Pregnancy and the post-partum period are recognized risk factors for venous thrombo-embolism (VTE), one of the most important causes of maternal mortality.1 Sub-cutaneous low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) is the current recommendation fo…

Assessment of the efficacy of a novel tailored vitamin K dosing regimen in lowering the International Normalised Ratio in over‐anticoagulated patients: a randomised clinical trial Open
Summary Current guidelines advocate using fixed‐doses of oral vitamin K to reverse excessive anticoagulation in warfarinised patients who are either asymptomatic or have minor bleeds. Over‐anticoagulated patients present with a wide range …

Warfarin Dose Model for the Prediction of Stable Maintenance Dose in Indian Patients Open
The main aim of this study was to screen various genetic and nongenetic factors that are known to alter warfarin response and to generate a model to predict stable warfarin maintenance dose for Indian patients. The study comprised of 300 w…

Impact of age on long‐term anticoagulation and how gender and monitoring setting affect it: implications for decision making and patient management Open
Aims Stabilization of anticoagulation control is seminal to reducing the risk of adverse effects of vitamin K antagonists. Reliable information on how ageing influences this is lacking. We set out to assess the true age‐related changes in …

VKORC1 (-1639) Polymorphisms do not Affect Long-Term Stability of Anticoagulation with Warfarin Open
The extent of INR fall following vitamin K supplementation to patients on warfarin is related to VKORC1-1639G>A genotype, with those carrying the GG genotype demonstrating a significantly larger fall in INR compared to those carrying the G…

The impact of genetics on the management of patients on warfarin awaiting surgery Open
Two older patients with atrial fibrillation, receiving warfarin for thromboembolic prophylaxis, with a target range of 2.0-3.0, were significantly over anticoagulated prior to elective intervention, in spite of having adhered to the standa…
