    Abstract Aims: A systematic review of the literature, in combination with a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials comparing treatments with placebo, was conducted to provide an update on the clinical efficacy and safety of incretin-based medications in adult patients with type 2 diabetes.
    Methods: A literature search (2000-2009) identified 38 placebo-controlled trials (phase II or later - parallel design) comparing exenatide (n = 8), liraglutide (n = 7), vildagliptin (n = 11) and sitagliptin (n = 12) with placebo. Outcomes were change from baseline in HbA(1c) and in weight, and the number of patient-reported hypoglycemic episodes. HbA(1c) and weight outcomes were analyzed as weighted mean differences (WMD), and the number of hypoglycemic episodes as relative risks (RR).
    Results: Patients receiving liraglutide showed greater reduction in HbA(1c) in comparison to placebo (WMD = -1.03, 95% confidence interval, CI = -1.16 to -0.90, p < 0.001) than those on sitagliptin (WMD = -0.79, 95% CI = -0.93 to -0.65, p < 0.001), exenatide (WMD = -0.75, 95% CI = -0.83 to -0.67, p < 0.001) or vildagliptin (WMD = -0.67, 95% CI = -0.83 to -0.52, p < 0.001). Weight was statistically significantly negatively associated with exenatide (WMD = -1.10, 95% CI = -1.32 to -0.87, p < 0.001) and positively associated with sitagliptin (WMD = 0.60, 95% CI = 0.33-0.87, p < 0.001) and vildagliptin (WMD = 0.56, 95% CI = 0.27-0.84, p < 0.001). The number of patient-reported hypoglycemic episodes was statistically significantly associated with the use of sitagliptin (RR = 2.56, 95% CI = 1.23-5.33, p = 0.01) and exenatide (RR = 2.40, 95% CI = 1.30-4.11, p = 0.002).
    Conclusion: Incretin-based therapies are effective in glycemic control and also offer other advantages such as weight loss (exenatide and liraglutide). This may have an important impact on patient adherence to medication.

    Abstract Objective: To compare the efficacy, in the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE), and safety, of rivaroxaban and dabigatran relative to the common comparator enoxaparin.
    Methods: Two randomized clinical trials of dabigatran, one after total hip replacement (THR), RE-NOVATE, and one after total knee replacement (TKR), RE-MODEL, were identified as using the same enoxaparin regimen (40 mg once daily given the evening before surgery) and being of comparable duration to two rivaroxaban trials, RECORD1 and RECORD3. Indirect comparisons were performed on both efficacy and safety endpoints. To enable comparisons, symptomatic VTE results were based on the total study duration period, i.e. including the follow-up period. Major bleeding included surgical-site bleeding events.
    Results: After THR, rivaroxaban 10 mg once daily significantly reduced total VTE and symptomatic VTE relative to dabigatran 220 mg once daily (relative risk 0.34 and 0.19, respectively). After TKR, rivaroxaban significantly reduced total VTE versus dabigatran (relative risk 0.53); symptomatic VTE was not different between dabigatran and rivaroxaban. There was no significant difference in the rates of major bleeding for patients receiving rivaroxaban or dabigatran.
    Conclusions: Based on the indirect comparisons, rivaroxaban was estimated to be more efficacious than dabigatran in the prevention of total VTE after THR and TKR. Our analysis relied upon published data for dabigatran and did not have the advantages of more detailed comparative data obtained directly from a randomized trial, as was the case with rivaroxaban. Further comparative research may be of value, but until available our conclusions represent the best available evidence.

    Abstract Background: The prevalence and incidence of neurogenic overactive bladder (nOAB) are poorly defined. This systematic literature review identified nOAB epidemiological data and estimated the incidence and prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI) and detrusor overactivity (DO) in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), spinal cord injury (SCI), Parkinson's disease (PD), stroke and spina bifida. An initial search of MEDLINE, Embase, PubMed, and the Cochrane library was supplemented by an internet search for grey literature and manual searching of the bibliographies of retrieved articles. Additional study selection identified comparable studies for statistical analysis. A descriptive statistical analysis, single-arm meta-analysis and stratified analysis were conducted using predefined criteria.
    Summary: Initial selection identified 189 articles containing prevalence data. Secondary selection for statistical analysis identified 39 and 52 articles with prevalence of UI and DO, respectively. Random-effect meta-analysis found the prevalence of UI was 50.9% in patients with MS, 52.3% with SCI, 33.1% with PD and 23.6% with stroke. Spina bifida was excluded due to insufficient data. The prevalence of DO may be biased and artificially elevated because it can only be measured with urodynamic investigations.
    Key messages: A substantial proportion of patients with neurological conditions develop UI that may be attributable to nOAB.

    Abstract Aims: High rates of permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation are reported after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) using the Medtronic CoreValve® system. The Accutrak™ catheter is designed to allow a more predictable landing zone. Little is known about the real clinical impact of this catheter. The aims of this paper were to describe the potential impact of the Accutrak™ catheter on the accuracy of positioning a 26 or 29 mm CoreValve® across the aortic annulus and its impact on the need for a pacemaker.
    Methods and results: A total of 134 patients were treated with the CoreValve® Accutrak™ system at two French centres (Lille and Toulouse). Mean age was 82.4 ± 4.7 years; logistic EuroSCORE was 24.3 ± 9.5%. Procedural success rate was 99.2%; mean depth of implantation was 4.9 mm. A final position between 0 and 6 mm was achieved in 85.8% of the patients. All-cause mortality at 30 days was 6%. The PPM implantation rate was 10.6%. Due to a limited number of events, we could not identify any predictor of need for a PPM: pre-existing right bundle branch block (RBBB) (OR 2.72 [0.63-11.87], p=ns), use of a 29 mm prosthesis (OR 2.73 [0.33-22.90], p=ns) and left ventricular septal hypertrophy (OR 2.63 [0.08-83.32], p=ns).
    Conclusions: In this cohort of patients treated with the CoreValve® Accutrak™ system, the incidence of permanent pacemaker implantation was low, which may be a consequence of an average small implantation depth. The Accutrak™ catheter seems to be helpful in achieving higher and more predictable implants. Operators could standardise their technique to place the CoreValve® prostheses less than 6 mm below the aortic annulus.

    Abstract Objectives: The aim of this study was to analyze the incidence, impact, and predictors of cerebrovascular events (CVEs) in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
    Background: Several issues remain unresolved post-TAVR, including CVEs.
    Methods: The FRANCE-2 (French Aortic Nation CoreValve and Edwards-2) registry prospectively included all patients who underwent TAVR in France and Monaco from January 2010 to October 2011. A total of 3,191 patients were analyzed. Six-month follow-up data were obtained. Events were adjudicated according to Valve Academic Research Consortium (VARC)-1 definition.
    Results: Of the cohort, 3.98% experienced a CVE: 55% were major strokes, 14.5% minor strokes, and 30.5% transient ischemic attacks. The mean delay for CVE occurrence was 2 days (interquartile range: 0 to 7 days) with 48.5% of CVEs occurring within 2 days. There was no statistically significant difference in CVE rate with regard to the type of valve (p = 0.899) and the access route (p = 0.128). Patients with a CVE more frequently had new-onset paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (13.6% vs. 7.6%; p = 0.015). During follow-up, the unadjusted mortality rate was higher in patients with a CVE (26% vs. 16.5%; p = 0.002). By multivariate analysis, only advanced age (odds ratio: 1.05; 95% confidence interval: 1.02 to 1.08; p = 0.02) and having 2 valves implanted (odds ratio: 3.13; 95 confidence interval: 1.40 to 7.05; p = 0.006) were associated with a significant risk of CVEs.
    Conclusions: CVEs occur frequently after TAVR and are associated with an increased mortality rate. No difference exists in the CVE rate when exploring the type of valve or the access route. Advanced age and multiple valves implanted during the same procedure are predictors of CVE.
