Evaluation of the impact of NOAC underdosing and exploration of bleeding risk factors in elderly patients with atrial fibrillation: artificial intelligence-based approach.

OBJECTIVE: Atrial fibrillation in elderly patients increases the risk of thromboembolism, necessitating long-term anticoagulation. While non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants (NOACs) are generally preferred, appropriate dosing in older patients who are frail remains a challenge. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of NOAC underdosing and identify bleeding risk factors using artificial intelligence...

Multicentre development and validation of a risk model integrating immunotherapy and coagulation biomarkers for thrombosis in autoimmune neurological disorders.

PURPOSE: Patients with Autoimmune Neurological Disorders (ANDs) require routine immunomodulatory therapy, which inherently increases thrombosis risk. Despite this recognised association, reliable tools for thrombosis prediction remain limited, highlighting the need for accurate risk stratification to inform targeted prevention strategies. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This multicentre retrospective study ...
