Abstract
There are limited data about the clinical benefits and harm of oral anticoagulants (OACs) for stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and chronic kidney disease using CKD-EPI creatinine equation for glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation in nuanced GFR stratification. We conducted a retrospective study in 12 centers in China and included 9,510 patients with AF. We grouped patients into the following estimated GFR (eGFR) categories: ≥60 (n = 7,616), 45 to 59 (n = 1,139), 30 to 44 (n = 474), and <30 (n = 281) ml/min/1.73 m2. Logistic regression was used to the compare risks of major bleeding, minor bleeding, total bleeding, thrombosis, and all-cause deaths in patients with AF with eGFR 45 to 59, 30 to 44, <30 ml/min/1.73 m2, and ≥60 ml/min/1.73 m2 after taking OACs. Patients with AF treated with OACs with eGFR 45 to 59, 30 to 44, and <30 ml/min/1.73 m2 had a significantly increased risk of all-cause deaths compared with eGFR ≥60 ml/min/1.73 m2 (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.326, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.049 to 1.665, p = 0.016; aOR 1.634, 95% CI 1.197 to 2.200, p = 0.002; aOR 2.492, 95% CI 1.766 to 3.471, p <0.001; respectively). Higher eGFR was associated with a significantly lower risk of all-cause deaths (aOR 0.990, 95% CI 0.986 to 0.994, p <0.001) and major bleeding (aOR 0.988, 95% CI 0.979 to 0.998, p = 0.018). Direct OACs remarkably reduced risk of major bleeding in those with eGFR 30 to 44 ml/min/1.73 m2 compared with warfarin. In conclusion, in patients with AF treated with OACs, patients with eGFR 45 to 59, 30 to 44, and <30 ml/min/1.73 m2 had a significantly increased risk of all-cause deaths compared with eGFR ≥60 ml/min/1.73 m2, and the risk of all-cause deaths increased with decreasing eGFR. Direct OACs are at least safe alternatives to warfarin in patients with AF with eGFR 30 to 44 ml/min/1.73 m2.
