The impact of renal function on efficacy and safety of new oral anticoagulant in atrial fibrillation patients: A systemic review and meta-analysis

This meta-analysis was to investigate the efficacy and safety of new oral anticoagulant (NOAC) in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with renal function insufficiency, and to explore whether renal decline occurs in AF patients with NOAC and its impact on outcomes. In AF patients with mild renal insuf...

Description
Summary:This meta-analysis was to investigate the efficacy and safety of new oral anticoagulant (NOAC) in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with renal function insufficiency, and to explore whether renal decline occurs in AF patients with NOAC and its impact on outcomes. In AF patients with mild renal insufficiency, the NOAC was associated with significantly lower rates of stroke (odds ratio [OR], 0.78; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.67-0.91; P
