| アブストラクト | AIMS: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of apixaban versus rivaroxaban among patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Using the United Kingdom's Clinical Practice Research Datalink linked to the Hospital Episode Statistics repository, and the Office for National Statistics database, we identified a cohort of patients with NVAF and T2DM newly treated with apixaban or rivaroxaban between 2013 and 2020. Propensity scores with standardized mortality ratio weighting were used to control for confounding. We used weighted Cox proportional hazards models to estimate separately the hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of ischemic stroke, major bleeding, and major adverse limb events associated with the use of apixaban compared with rivaroxaban. We also evaluated whether the risk was modified by age, sex, duration of diabetes, microvascular and macrovascular complications of diabetes, nephropathy, CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED scores, and by dose (standard vs. low dose). RESULTS: The cohort included 11,561 apixaban and 8,265 rivaroxaban users. Apixaban was associated with a similar risk of stroke (HR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.79-1.23), and a 32% reduced risk of major bleeding (HR: 0.68, 95% CI: 0.59-0.78), compared with rivaroxaban. The risk of major adverse limb events was similar between apixaban and rivaroxaban (HR: 0.75, 95% CI: 0.54-1.04). Overall, the risk of ischemic stroke and major bleeding was consistent in stratified analyses. CONCLUSION: Among patients with NVAF and T2DM, apixaban was associated with a similar risk of stroke and a lower risk of major bleeding compared with rivaroxaban. |
