Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major risk factor for mortality. The prevalence, clinical correlates, and prognostic impact of AF in Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) have not yet been investigated in a large patient cohort. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence, clinical correlates, and prognostic impact of AF in patients with TTS. Methods and Results Patients with TTS were enrolled from the International Takotsubo Registry, which is a multinational network with 26 participating center... Abstract

Frontiers in neuroscience, Volume 15, 27 4 2021, Pages 702765 Event Camera Simulator Improvements via Characterized Parameters. Joubert D, Marcireau A, Ralph N, Jolley A, van Schaik A, Cohen G

It has been more than two decades since the first neuromorphic Dynamic Vision Sensor (DVS) sensor was invented, and many subsequent prototypes have been built with a wide spectrum of applications in mind. Competing against state-of-the-art neural networks in terms of accuracy is difficult, although there are clear opportunities to outperform conventional approaches in terms of power consumption and processing speed. As neuromorphic sensors generate sparse data at the focal plane itself, they are... Abstract

Communications biology, Volume 4, Issue 1, 27 4 2021, Pages 917 Multicomponent and multisensory communicative acts in orang-utans may serve different functions. Fröhlich M, Bartolotta N, Fryns C, Wagner C, Momon L, Jaffrezic M, Mitra Setia T, van Noordwijk MA, van Schaik CP

From early infancy, human face-to-face communication is multimodal, comprising a plethora of interlinked communicative and sensory modalities. Although there is also growing evidence for this in nonhuman primates, previous research rarely disentangled production from perception of signals. Consequently, the functions of integrating articulators (i.e. production organs involved in multicomponent acts) and sensory channels (i.e. modalities involved in multisensory acts) remain poorly understood. H... Abstract

Midwifery, Volume 103, 27 4 2021, Pages 103106 A psychosocial examination of feelings and thoughts about pregnancy: A qualitative study. Yılmaz M, Değirmenci F, Yılmaz DV

Background: during pregnancy, which is a developmental period, there are risks that may cause pathological changes when physical, mental and social adaptation is not achieved. During antenatal appointments, it is possible to provide necessary care for pregnant women at the right time by screening for risks that threaten health. In addition to physical risk factors, psychosocial risk factors that can have significant effects on the health of pregnant women should also be included in antenatal app... Abstract

The international journal of cardiovascular imaging, Volume 38, Issue 1, 25 4 2021, Pages 183-193 Estimated pulse wave velocity (ePWV) as a potential gatekeeper for MRI-assessed PWV: a linear and deep neural network based approach in 2254 participants of the Netherlands Epidemiology of Obesity study. van Hout MJ, Dekkers IA, Lin L, Westenberg JJ, Schalij MJ, Jukema JW, Widya RL, Boone SC, de Mutsert R, Rosendaal FR, Scholte AJ, Lamb HJ

Pulse wave velocity (PWV) assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a prognostic marker for cardiovascular events. Prediction modelling could enable indirect PWV assessment based on clinical and anthropometric data. The aim was to calculate estimated-PWV (ePWV) based on clinical and anthropometric measures using linear ridge regression as well as a Deep Neural Network (DNN) and to determine the cut-off which provides optimal discriminative performance between lower and higher PWV values.

This International Consensus Classification and Nomenclature for the congenital bicuspid aortic valve condition recognizes 3 types of bicuspid valves: 1. The fused type (right-left cusp fusion, right-non-coronary cusp fusion and left-non-coronary cusp fusion phenotypes); 2. The 2-sinus type (latero-lateral and antero-posterior phenotypes); and 3. The partial-fusion (forme fruste) type. The presence of raphe and the symmetry of the fused type phenotypes are critical aspects to describe. The Inter... Abstract

The ISME journal, Volume 16, Issue 1, 21 3 2021, Pages 211-220 Evidence for methanobactin "Theft" and novel chalkophore production in methanotrophs: impact on methanotrophic-mediated methylmercury degradation. Kang-Yun CS, Liang X, Dershwitz P, Gu W, Schepers A, Flatley A, Lichtmannegger J, Zischka H, Zhang L, Lu X, Gu B, Ledesma JC, Pelger DJ, DiSpirito AA, Semrau JD

Aerobic methanotrophy is strongly controlled by copper, and methanotrophs are known to use different mechanisms for copper uptake. Some methanotrophs secrete a modified polypeptide-methanobactin-while others utilize a surface-bound protein (MopE) and a secreted form of it (MopE*) for copper collection. As different methanotrophs have different means of sequestering copper, competition for copper significantly impacts methanotrophic activity. Herein, we show that Methylomicrobium album BG8, Methy...

The events triggering and/or sustaining the auto-immune response underlying chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) are unknown. Similar to Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), a viral infection might play a role in CIDP. In this study, an virus detection method (VIDISCA-next generation sequencing) capable of detecting known and unknown viruses, was used to analyze the virome in serum of 47 CIDP patients at different time points of the disease and, when available, in cerebrospinal flu...

Some European countries have successfully implemented country-specific control programs (CPs) for infectious cattle diseases that are not regulated or are regulated only to a limited extent at the European Union (EU) level. Examples of such diseases include bovine viral diarrhea (BVD), infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR), and Johne's disease (JD). The CPs vary between countries in the design and quality of collected data as well as methods used to detect infection and estimate prevalenc... Abstract

The choroid is a key player in maintaining ocular homeostasis and plays a role in a variety of chorioretinal diseases, many of which are poorly understood. Recent advances in the field of single-cell RNA sequencing have yielded valuable insights into the properties of choroidal endothelial cells (CECs). Here, we review the role of the choroid in various physiological and pathophysiological mechanisms, focusing on the role of CECs. We also discuss new insights regarding the phenotypic properties...

Background: Lipidomics is emerging for biomarker discovery in cardiovascular disease, and circulating lipids are increasingly incorporated in risk models to predict cardiovascular events. Moreover, specific classes of lipids, such as sphingomyelins, ceramides, and triglycerides, have been related to coronary artery disease (CAD) severity and plaque characteristics. To avoid unnecessary testing, it is important to identify individuals at low CAD risk. The only pretest model available so far to ru... Abstract

Meat inspection records of one large cattle slaughterhouse were analyzed to evaluate the added value of slaughterhouse data for cattle health surveillance in the Netherlands. Data were available from January 2015 to September 2018, consisting of 467,361 meat inspection records. Analyses included (1) an assessment of the representativeness of the cattle herds in the slaughterhouse data in relation to the cattle herd population in the Netherlands, and (2) multivariable analyses to quantify associa...
