Popis: Aim. To study the role of von Willebrand factor (VWF) and D-dimer (DD) as predictors of upper gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD).Material and methods. The study included patients with stable CAD who are members of the prospective registry of long-term antithrombotic therapy (REGATTA-1) (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04347200). The primary endpoints were actionable GIBs (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium type 2-5). Cut-off points for DD and VWF were determined by ROC analysis. The predictive significance of an increase in VWF and DD was assessed by the logistic regression.Results. The study included 408 patients (men, 77,5%; mean age, 61,3±10,8 years). The median follow-up period was 2,5 [1,1-14,7] years. DD was determined in all patients, including 36 patients with GIB, while VWF — in 169 patients (28 patients with GIB). An increase in DD >928 ng/ml was an independent predictor of GIB, including taking into account clinical risk factors (odds ratio (OR), 3,26 [95% confidence interval (CI), 1,43-7,42] (p=0,0047), or the previously developed REGATTA scale score (OR, 3,73, 95% CI: 1,65-8,43 (p=0,0015)). VWF >105% was also an independent predictor of GIB (OR, 14,02; 95% CI: 1,41-139,42 (p=0,023)); in the REGATTA scale model — OR 11,3, 95% CI: 1,43-88,83 (p=0,021). The increase in both markers was most unfavorable, since the proportion of those with GIB was 41,4%, while among patients with normal DD and increased VWF — 14,9%, and with low values of both markers — 0%. OR of GIB in patients with an increase in both markers was 4,1 (95% CI: 1,6-10,3 (p=0,003)).Conclusion. In patients with stable CAD, an increase in VWF and DD was associated with an increase in GIB risk regardless of the presence of clinical risk factors.
