研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study are 1) to characterize the primary and secondary prevention patients, 2) to calculate incidence rates of stroke/SE or major bleeding in each cohort and 3) to investigate for Japanese secondary prevention patients as Real World Evidence (RWE) on the effectiveness and safety of apixaban compared to warfarin in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF).
详细描述
Japanese population has shown to have higher rate of incidence of stroke and stroke mortality is also higher. Patients with a history of ischemic stroke are at high risk of recurrence and require more rigorous management to prevent recurrence. The same is true for patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and treatment with anticoagulants reduces the risk of recurrent embolic stroke. However, some patients still suffer from recurrent embolic and/or ischemic stroke even if they are on anticoagulants for secondary prevention. In addition to the recurrent stroke, risk of bleeding is also higher in the patients with a history of stroke because they are often chronically treated with antiplatelet agents to prevent recurrence after cerebral infarction and with an anticoagulant after embolic stroke. Concomitant use of anticoagulant and anti-platelet agents is sometimes necessary if patients with AF experience cerebral infarction and the risk of bleedings largely enhances in these patients. Thus, patients in secondary prevention are at higher risk of both recurrent ischemic stroke and more effective and safer antithrombotic therapy should take this into account.
The purpose of this study are 1) to characterize the primary and secondary prevention patients, 2) to calculate incidence rates of stroke/SE or major bleeding in each cohort and 3) to investigate for Japanese secondary prevention patients as RWE on the effectiveness and safety of apixaban compared to warfarin in patients NVAF.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of Participants With Risk of a Composite of Recurrent Stroke or SE at 12 Months: Secondary Prevention (Balanced) Cohorts
时间窗: 12 months
In this outcome measure, number of participants with risk of a composite of recurrent stroke (ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke)/SE at 12 months was reported. Recurrent meant "once participants were discharged from the hospital and became outpatients and then rehospitalized due to stroke or SE".
Incidence Rate of Major Bleeding During the Follow-up Period: Secondary Prevention (Balanced) Cohorts
时间窗: During follow up period (Data collected between 2008 to 2021 [approximately 13 years])
Incidence rate was reported as events per 1,000 participant-years. First occurrence of major bleeding after index date during the follow-up period was considered. Major bleeding, was defined as any bleeding which required hospitalization for treatment (the primary reason for the hospitalization was to treat the bleeding). Index date was defined as the next day of the day when participants diagnosed with NVAF initiated warfarin or apixaban. The follow up period was the period until the first observation of the earlier of the following from index date: until discontinuation of index OAC, switch of OAC, lack of records, occurrence of stroke, SE, or hemorrhagic events, or elapsing of 2 years from index date.
