The effect of peer modelling and discussing modelled feedback principles on medical students' feedback skills: a quasi-experimental study.
van Blankenstein FM, O'Sullivan JF, Saab N, Steendijk P
Background: Teaching is an important professional skill for physicians and providing feedback is an important part of teaching. Medical students can practice their feedback skills by giving each other peer feedback. Therefore, we developed a peer feedback training in which students observed a peer that modelled the use of good feedback principles. Students then elaborated on the modelled feedback principles through peer discussion. This combination of peer modelling and discussing the modelled f...

Destination shapes antibiotic resistance gene acquisitions, abundance increases, and diversity changes in Dutch travelers.
D'Souza AW, Boolchandani M, Patel S, Galazzo G, van Hattem JM, Arcilla MS, Melles DC, de Jong MD, Schultsz C, COMBAT Consortium, Dantas G, Penders J
Background: Antimicrobial-resistant bacteria and their antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes can spread by hitchhiking in human guts. International travel can exacerbate this public health threat when travelers acquire AMR genes endemic to their destinations and bring them back to their home countries. Prior studies have demonstrated travel-related acquisition of specific opportunistic pathogens and AMR genes, but the extent and magnitude of travel's effects on the gut resistome remain large...

Cooperation in large-scale human societies-What, if anything, makes it unique, and how did it evolve?
Powers ST, van Schaik CP, Lehmann L
To resolve the major controversy about why prosocial behaviors persist in large-scale human societies, we propose that two questions need to be answered. First, how do social interactions in small-scale and large-scale societies differ? By reviewing the exchange and collective-action dilemmas in both small-scale and large-scale societies, we show they are not different. Second, are individual decision-making mechanisms driven by self-interest? We extract from the literature three types of indivi...

Latent class analysis to assess whole-genome sequencing versus broth microdilution for monitoring antimicrobial resistance in livestock.
Hesp A, Veldman K, Brouwer MSM, Wagenaar JA, Mevius D, van Schaik G
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) monitoring in animals is performed in commensal Escherichia coli, and other microorganisms relevant for human or veterinary health. Due to advances in the field and major reductions in cost, it is expected that whole-genome sequencing (WGS)-based antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) will (partly) replace culture-based AST. So far, no studies have been performed without using culture-based AST as the gold standard. Our aim was to use Bayesian latent class anal...

Extent of Coronary Artery Disease in Patients With Stenotic Bicuspid Versus Tricuspid Aortic Valves.
Dolmaci OB, Legué J, Lindeman JHN, Driessen AHG, Klautz RJM, Van Brakel TJ, Siebelink HJ, Mertens BJA, Poelmann RE, Gittenberger-de Groot AC, Grewal N
Background Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital cardiac malformation, which is often complicated by aortic valve stenosis (AoS). In tricuspid aortic valve (TAV), AoS strongly associates with coronary artery disease (CAD) with common pathophysiological factors. Yet, it remains unclear whether AoS in patients with BAV is also associated with CAD. This study investigated the association between the aortic valve morphological features and the extent of CAD. Methods and Results A...

Discordant severity criteria in patients with moderate aortic stenosis: prognostic implications.
Pio SM, Amanullah MR, Butcher SC, Sin KY, Ajmone Marsan N, Pibarot P, Van Mieghem NM, Ding ZP, Généreux P, Leon MB, Ewe SH, Delgado V, Bax JJ
Background: The criteria to define the grade of aortic stenosis (AS)-aortic valve area (AVA) and mean gradient (MG) or peak jet velocity-do not always coincide into one grade. Although in severe AS, this discrepancy is well characterised, in moderate AS, the phenomenon of discordant grading has not been investigated and its prognostic implications are unknown. Objectives: To investigate the occurrence of discordant grading in patients with moderate AS (defined by an AVA between 1.0 cm² and 1.5 c...

Bone Material Strength Index as Measured by Impact Microindentation is Low in Patients with Primary Hyperparathyroidism.
Schoeb M, Winter EM, Sleddering MA, Lips MA, Schepers A, Snel M, Appelman-Dijkstra NM
Context: In primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) bone mineral density (BMD) is typically decreased in cortical bone and relatively preserved in trabecular bone. An increased fracture rate is observed however not only at peripheral sites but also at the spine, and fractures occur at higher BMD values than expected. We hypothesized that components of bone quality other than BMD are affected in PHPT as well. Objective: To evaluate bone material properties using impact microindentation (IMI) in PHPT p...

Immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: an emerging clinical problem.
Poels K, Neppelenbroek SIM, Kersten MJ, Antoni ML, Lutgens E, Seijkens TTP
Antibody-mediated blockade of co-inhibitory molecules such as cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein 4, PD1 and PDL1 elicits potent antitumor responses and improves the prognosis of many patients with cancer. As these immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are increasingly prescribed to a diverse patient population, a broad range of adverse effects is emerging. Atherosclerosis, a lipid-driven chronic inflammatory disease of the large arteries, may be aggravated by ICI treatment. In this review,...

Therapy-Induced Tumor Cell Death: Friend or Foe of Immunotherapy?
van Schaik TA, Chen KS, Shah K
Combinatory treatments using surgery, radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy together with immunotherapy have shown encouraging results for specific subsets of tumors, but a significant proportion of tumors remains unsusceptible. Some of these inconsistencies are thought to be the consequence of an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) caused by therapy-induced tumor cell death (TCD). An increased understanding of the molecular mechanisms governing TCD has provided valuable insights in specif...

What do we need to obtain high quality circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) for routine diagnostic test in oncology? - Considerations on pre-analytical aspects by the IFCC workgroup cfDNA.
Danesi R, Lo YMD, Oellerich M, Beck J, Galbiati S, Re MD, Lianidou E, Neumaier M, van Schaik RHN
The analysis of circulating cell free DNA is an important tool for the analysis of tumor resistance, tumor heterogeneity, detection of minimal residual disease and detection of allograft rejection in kidney or heart transplant patients. The proper use of this technique is important, and starts with considering pre-analytic aspects. The current paper addresses some important technical considerations to ensure the proper and harmonized use of cfDNA techniques.

Glycemic traits are used to diagnose and monitor type 2 diabetes and cardiometabolic health. To date, most genetic studies of glycemic traits have focused on individuals of European ancestry. Here we aggregated genome-wide association studies comprising up to 281,416 individuals without diabetes (30% non-European ancestry) for whom fasting glucose, 2-h glucose after an oral glucose challenge, glycated hemoglobin and fasting insulin data were available. Trans-ancestry and single-ancestry meta-ana...

The impact of interprofessional perspective-taking on moral distress in the pediatric intensive care unit.
Kowalek K, Bochatay N, Ju M, Van Schaik S
Moral distress arises when constraints outside of healthcare professionals' control prohibit them from acting according to the ethically sound course of action. It can be triggered by poor communication and different perspectives between professionals. We examined whether and how taking the perspective of the other profession reduces moral distress among pediatric intensive care nurses and physicians. Using elements of a previously published scale, we created a Vignette-based Moral Distress...
