Oral Anticoagulants for Prevention of Stroke in Atrial Fibrillation: Systematic Review, Network Meta-Analysis, and Cost Effectiveness Analysis
BMJ 359:J5058, Lopez-Lopez, J.A.,et al, 2017
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
The network meta-analysis informs the choice of DOACs for prevention of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation. Several DOACs are of net benefit compared with warfarin. A trial directly comparing DOACs would overcome the need for indirect comparisons to be made through network meta-analysis.
