Nationwide claims data validated for quality assessments in acute myocardial infarction in the Netherlands.
Eindhoven DC, van Staveren LN, van Erkelens JA, Ikkersheim DE, Cannegieter SC, Umans VAWM, Mosterd A, van Wijngaarden J, Schalij MJ, Borleffs CJW
Introduction: Since health insurance is compulsory in the Netherlands, the centrally registered medical claims data might pose a unique opportunity to evaluate quality of (cardiac) care on a national level without additional collection of data. However, validation of these claims data has not yet been assessed. Design: Retrospective cohort study. Methods: National claims data ('national registry') were compared with data collected by patient records reviews in four representative hospi...

van Wijngaarden SE, Kamperidis V, Al-Amri I, van der Kley F, Schalij MJ, Ajmone Marsan N, Bax JJ, Delgado V
Aims: To evaluate the effects of MitraClip on left ventricular (LV) and left atrial (LA) myocardial wall stress as assessed with the use of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and strain imaging. Methods and results: Sixty-five patients with symptomatic moderate and severe mitral regurgitation (MR; age 75 ± 9 y, 57% male, 89% functional MR) treated with the use of MitraClip were evaluated. Patients were divided according to 6-month NT-proBNP tertiles. Changes in echocardiograph...

Adenosine-to-Inosine Editing of MicroRNA-487b Alters Target Gene Selection After Ischemia and Promotes Neovascularization.
van der Kwast RVCT, van Ingen E, Parma L, Peters HAB, Quax PHA, Nossent AY
Rationale: Adenosine-to-inosine editing of microRNAs has the potential to cause a shift in target site selection. 2'-O-ribose-methylation of adenosine residues, however, has been shown to inhibit adenosine-to-inosine editing. Objective: To investigate whether angiomiR miR487b is subject to adenosine-to-inosine editing or 2'-O-ribose-methylation during neovascularization. Methods and results: Complementary DNA was prepared from C57BL/6-mice subjected to hindlimb ischemia. Using Sanger s...

MUSCLEMOTION: A Versatile Open Software Tool to Quantify Cardiomyocyte and Cardiac Muscle Contraction In Vitro and In Vivo.
Sala L, van Meer BJ, Tertoolen LGJ, Bakkers J, Bellin M, Davis RP, Denning C, Dieben MAE, Eschenhagen T, Giacomelli E, Grandela C, Hansen A, Holman ER, Jongbloed MRM, Kamel SM, Koopman CD, Lachaud Q, Mannhardt I, Mol MPH, Mosqueira D, Orlova VV, Passier R, Ribeiro MC, Saleem U, Smith GL, Burton FL, Mummery CL
Rationale: There are several methods to measure cardiomyocyte and muscle contraction, but these require customized hardware, expensive apparatus, and advanced informatics or can only be used in single experimental models. Consequently, data and techniques have been difficult to reproduce across models and laboratories, analysis is time consuming, and only specialist researchers can quantify data. Objective: Here, we describe and validate an automated, open-source software tool (MUSCLEMOTION) ada...

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified >250 loci for body mass index (BMI), implicating pathways related to neuronal biology. Most GWAS loci represent clusters of common, noncoding variants from which pinpointing causal genes remains challenging. Here we combined data from 718,734 individuals to discover rare and low-frequency (minor allele frequency (MAF) < 5%) coding variants associated with BMI. We identified 14 coding variants in 13 genes, of which 8 variants were in ge...

Leukocyte-Associated Immunoglobulin-like Receptor-1 is regulated in human myocardial infarction but its absence does not affect infarct size in mice.
Ellenbroek GHJM, de Haan JJ, van Klarenbosch BR, Brans MAD, van de Weg SM, Smeets MB, de Jong S, Arslan F, Timmers L, Goumans MTH, Hoefer IE, Doevendans PA, Pasterkamp G, Meyaard L, de Jager SCA
Heart failure after myocardial infarction (MI) depends on infarct size and adverse left ventricular (LV) remodelling, both influenced by the inflammatory response. Leukocyte-associated immunoglobulin-like receptor 1 (LAIR-1) is an inhibitory receptor of ITAM-dependent cell activation, present on almost all immune cells. We investigated regulation of LAIR-1 leukocyte expression after MI in patients and hypothesized that its absence in a mouse model of MI would increase infarct size and adverse re...

Gender-Specific Differences in All-Cause Mortality Between Incomplete and Complete Revascularization in Patients With ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction and Multi-Vessel Coronary Artery Disease.
Dimitriu-Leen AC, Hermans MPJ, van Rosendael AR, van Zwet EW, van der Hoeven BL, Bax JJ, Scholte AJHA
The best revascularization strategy (complete vs incomplete revascularization) in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is still debated. The interaction between gender and revascularization strategy in patients with STEMI on all-cause mortality is uncertain. The aim of the present study was to evaluate gender-specific difference in all-cause mortality between incomplete and complete revascularization in patients with STEMI and multi-vessel coronary artery disease. The study p...

A model for warfare in stratified small-scale societies: The effect of within-group inequality.
Pandit S, Pradhan G, van Schaik C
In order to predict the features of non-raiding human warfare in small-scale, socially stratified societies, we study a coalitionary model of war that assumes that individuals participate voluntarily because their decisions serve to maximize fitness. Individual males join the coalition if war results in a net economic and thus fitness benefit. Within the model, viable offensive war ensues if the attacking coalition of males can overpower the defending coalition. We assume that the two groups wil...

Aims: We investigated the association between quantified metabolite, lipid and lipoprotein measures and incident heart failure hospitalisation (HFH) in the elderly, and examined whether circulating metabolic measures improve HFH prediction. Methods and results: Overall, 80 metabolic measures from the PROspective Study of Pravastatin in the Elderly at Risk (PROSPER) trial were measured by proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (n = 5341; 182 HFH events during 2.7-year follow-up). We repea...

Relation of Overall and Abdominal Adiposity With Electrocardiogram Parameters of Subclinical Cardiovascular Disease in Individuals Aged 45 to 65 Years (from the Netherlands Epidemiology of Obesity Study).
Elffers TW, de Mutsert R, Lamb HJ, Maan AC, Macfarlane PW, Willems van Dijk K, Rosendaal FR, Jukema JW, Trompet S
Overall and abdominal obesity are well-established risk factors for cardiometabolic disease. However, associations of overall and abdominal adiposity with electrocardiographic (ECG) markers of subclinical cardiovascular disease (CVD) have not yet been fully elucidated. Therefore, we investigated these associations in a population without preexisting CVD. We performed cross-sectional analyses in the Netherlands Epidemiology of Obesity Study. Body mass index (BMI), total body fat, and waist circum...

Spiro-1-benzofuranpiperidinylalkanoic acids as a novel and selective sphingosine S1P<sub>5</sub> receptor agonist chemotype.
Stoit AR, Lange JHM, Coolen HKAC, Rensink A, van den Hoogenband A, den Hartog AP, van Schaik S, Kruse CG
The synthesis and SAR of a novel class of spirobenzofuranpiperidinyl-derived alkanoic acids 6-34 as sphingosine S1P5 receptor agonists are described. The target compounds generally elicit high S1P5 receptor agonistic potencies and in general are selective against both S1P1 and S1P3 receptor subtypes. The key compound 32 shows a high bioavailability of 73% and a CNS/plasma ratio of 0.8 after oral administration in rats.
