Background:This study investigated the impact of systemic inflammation on bleeding risk in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) patients treated with direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC).Methods and Results:We conducted a single-center prospective registry of 2,216 NVAF patients treated with DOAC: the DIRECT registry (UMIN000033283). High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) was measured ≤3 months before (pre-DOAC hsCRP) and 6±3 months after initiation of DOAC (post-DOAC hsCRP). Multivariate logistic regression model was used to assess the influence of systemic inflammation and conventional bleeding risk factors on major bleeding according to International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis criteria. Based on the findings, we created a new bleeding risk assessment score: the ORBIT-i score, which included post-DOAC hsCRP >0.100 mg/dL and all components of the ORBIT score. A total of 1,848 patients had both pre- and post-DOAC hsCRP data (follow-up duration, 460±388 days). Post-DOAC hsCRP was associated with major bleeding (OR, 2.770; 95% CI: 1.687–4.548, P<0.001). Patients with post-DOAC hsCRP >0.100 mg/dL more frequently had major bleeding than those without (log-rank test, P<0.001). ORBIT-i score had the highest C-index of 0.711 (95% CI, 0.654–0.769) compared with the ORBIT and HAS-BLED scores.Conclusions:Persistent systemic inflammation was associated with major bleeding risk. ORBIT-i score had a higher discriminative performance compared with the conventional bleeding risk scores.

Background: The outcome of redo transcatheter aortic valve (TAV) implantation (TAVI) is unknown for TAV structural valve degeneration (SVD). This paper reports the initial results of redo TAVI for TAV-SVD in Japanese patients. Methods and Results: Of 630 consecutive patients, 6 (1.0%) underwent redo TAVI for TAV-SVD (689–1,932 days after the first TAVI). The first TAV were 23-mm balloon-expandable valves (BEV, n=5) and a 26-mm self-expandable valve (SEV, n=1). All patients underwent multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) before redo TAVI, which showed first-TAV under-expansion (range, 19.1–21.0 mm) compared with the label size. Two BEV and 4 SEV were successfully implanted as second TAV, without moderate/severe regurgitation or 30-day mortality. One of 2 patients with a BEV-inside-BEV implantation had a high transvalvular mean pressure gradient post-procedurally (34 mmHg) and required surgical valve replacement 248 days after the redo TAVI. This, however, was unnoted in patients with SEV implantation during redo TAVI. Planned coronary artery bypass grafting was concomitantly performed in 1 patient with a small sino-tubular junction and SEV-inside-SEV implantation because of the risk of coronary malperfusion caused by the first TAV leaflets. Five of the 6 patients survived during the follow-up period (range, 285–1,503 days). Conclusions: Redo TAVI for TAV-SVD appears safe and feasible, while specific strategies based on MDCT and device selection seem important for better outcomes.
