Real-life data of major and minor bleeding events with direct oral anticoagulants in the one-year follow-up period: The NOAC-TURK study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThis study aimed to evaluate the safety of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) during daily clinical practice.
methodsThis was a prospective study conducted between January 01, 2016, and April 01, 2017, in patients aged ≥18 years with a diagnosis of NVAF. We performed the study in 9 clinical centers from different regions of Turkey, and the mean follow-up period was 12+2 months. We investigated major and minor bleeding events of DOAC.
resultsA total of 1807 patients with NVAF were enrolled. The mean age of the patients was 73.6±10.2 years, CHA2DS2-VASc score was 3.6±1.4, and HAS-BLED score was 2±1.2. The most frequently prescribed DOAC was dabigatran 110 mg bid in 409 (22.6%) patients. The patients on apixaban 2.5 mg bid were older (p<0.001). Patients on rivaroxaban 15 mg od also had a higher prevalence of chronic renal failure, 46 (16.7%) patients. A total of 205 (11.4%) bleeding events were observed; among these, 34 (1.9%) patients had major bleeding and 171 (9.4%) patients had minor bleeding. The major and minor bleeding events were 2/273 (0.7%) and 30/273 (10.9%) in patients receiving dabigatran 150 mg bid, 13/409 (3%) and 44/409 (10.7%) in patients receiving dabigatran 110 mg bid, 4/385 (1%) and 42/385 (10.9%) in patients receiving rivaroxaban 20 mg od, 8/276 (2.9%) and 27/276 (9.7%) in patients receiving rivaroxaban 15 mg od, 3/308 (0.9%) and 14/308 (4.5%) in patients receiving apixaban 5 mg bid, 4/156 (2.5%) and 14/156 (9%) in patients receiving apixaban 2.5 mg bid, respectively. The total bleeding events were 17 (5.6%) in patients receiving apixaban 5 mg, less than those receiving other DOACs. On multivariate analyses, rivaroxaban 20 mg od (p=0.002), ATRIA and HAS-BLED scores, and peripheral artery disease were independent indicators of bleeding. The most frequent location of major bleeding was the gastrointestinal system (GIS) [17 (0.9%) patients], and the most frequent location of minor bleeding was the gingiva [45 (2.5%) patients].
conclusionThis study showed that similar results as the previous real-life study; however, we had some different results, such as the GIS tract bleeding was more frequent in patients receiving dabigatran 110 mg bid. The major and intracranial bleeding events were similar for different DOACs; and among DOACs, only rivaroxaban 20 mg od was associated with a high risk of bleeding.
