Anemia is encountered in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) on oral anticoagulants (OACs) but the prognostic impact was not well scrutinized in real-world settings.
We conducted a historical multicenter registry of patients with NVAF taking OACs at 71 centers in Japan. Those with mechanical heart valves or a history of pulmonary thrombosis or deep venous thrombosis were excluded. Anemic patients were divided into three groups of hemoglobin (Hb) level: moderate/severe (Hb < 11.0 g/dL), mild (men: Hb of 11.0-12.9 g/dL; women: Hb of 11.0-11.9 g/dL), and no anemia. The endpoints included major bleeding, hemorrhagic stroke, ischemic events, ischemic stroke, and all-cause mortality.
Among 7558 consecutive patients (mean age, 73 years; men 67%) registered in February 2013 and followed until February 2017, 2100 (28%) patients had anemia. The anemic patients were older (moderate/severe: 79 years; mild: 77 years; no anemia: 71 years, < .001), and HAS-BLED score was significantly higher in the anemic patients ( < .001). The cumulative incidences at 4 years of major bleeding in moderate/severe, mild, and no anemia group, were 14.9%, 10.7%, and 6.4%, respectively. The adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) (95% confidential intervals (CIs)) of major bleeding of moderate/severe and mild anemia group were 1.96 (1.49-2.58) and 1.48 (1.17-1.87) compared to no anemia group. The adjusted HRs (95% CIs) for ischemic events were 0.63 (0.39-0.99) and 1.03 (0.76-1.39).
The severity of anemia in the patients with NVAF on OACs was associated with major bleeding.
口服抗凝药（OAC）治疗的非瓣膜性心房颤动（NVAF）患者中会出现贫血，但在现实环境中其预后影响尚未得到充分审视。
我们对日本71个中心接受OAC治疗的NVAF患者进行了一项历史性多中心登记研究。排除有机械心脏瓣膜或有肺血栓或深静脉血栓病史的患者。贫血患者根据血红蛋白（Hb）水平分为三组：中度/重度（Hb < 11.0 g/dL）、轻度（男性：Hb为11.0 - 12.9 g/dL；女性：Hb为11.0 - 11.9 g/dL）和无贫血。终点包括大出血、出血性卒中、缺血性事件、缺血性卒中和全因死亡率。
在2013年2月登记并随访至2017年2月的7558例连续患者（平均年龄73岁；男性67%）中，2100例（28%）患者有贫血。贫血患者年龄更大（中度/重度：79岁；轻度：77岁；无贫血：71岁，P <.001），且贫血患者的HAS - BLED评分显著更高（P <.001）。中度/重度、轻度和无贫血组4年时大出血的累积发生率分别为14.9%、10.7%和6.4%。与无贫血组相比，中度/重度和轻度贫血组大出血的调整后风险比（HR）（95%置信区间（CI））分别为1.96（1.49 - 2.58）和1.48（1.17 - 1.87）。缺血性事件的调整后HR（95% CI）分别为0.63（0.39 - 0.99）和1.03（0.76 - 1.39）。
接受OAC治疗的NVAF患者贫血的严重程度与大出血相关。
