Traumatic asphyxia with a 'masque ecchymotique' in a 14-year-old adolescent.
Şık N, Başerdem O, Duman M, Yılmaz D
Traumatic asphyxia, which is manifested by facial edema, cyanosis, subconjunctival hemorrhage, and petechiae on the upper chest and abdomen, is a very rare clinical syndrome in children. In adults, the incidence of traumatic asphyxia was reported as 1 case/18,500 accidents, but the actual incidence is not known for pediatric population. Traumatic asphyxia is a mechanical cause of hypoxia resulting from sudden compression of the thoracic-abdominal region and the valsalva maneuver is necessary for...

Beunk L, Nijenhuis M, Soree B, de Boer-Veger NJ, Buunk AM, Guchelaar HJ, Houwink EJF, Risselada A, Rongen GAPJM, van Schaik RHN, Swen JJ, Touw D, van Westrhenen R, Deneer VHM, van der Weide J
The Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) aims to facilitate pharmacogenetics implementation in clinical practice by developing evidence-based guidelines to optimize pharmacotherapy. A guideline describing the gene-drug interaction between the genes CYP2D6, CYP3A4 and CYP1A2 and antipsychotics is presented here. The DPWG identified gene-drug interactions that require therapy adjustments when respective genotype is known for CYP2D6 with aripiprazole, brexpiprazole, haloperidol, pimozide, ri...

Hof JP, Vermeulen SH, van der Heijden AG, Verhaegh GW, Dyrskjøt L, Catto JWF, Mengual L, Bryan RT, Fleshner NE, Kiemeney LALM, Galesloot TE
Background: Various germline genetic variants are associated with the prognosis of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Germline variants in genes frequently somatically mutated in bladder cancer have not been studied thoroughly in relation to risk of recurrence or progression in NMIBC. Objective: To identify germline DNA variants in bladder carcinogenesis-related genes associated with recurrence or progression in NMIBC. Methods: We analysed associations between single-nucleotide polymorp...

de Koning ER, Beeres SLMA, Bosch J, Backus BE, Tietge WJ, Alizadeh Dehnavi R, Groenwold RHH, Silvius AM, van Lierop PTS, Jukema JW, Schalij MJ, Boogers MJ
Background: Cardiac symptoms are one of the most prevalent reasons for emergency department visits. However, over 80% of patients with such symptoms are sent home after acute cardiovascular disease has been ruled out. Objective: The Hollands-Midden Acute Regional Triage-cardiology (HART-c) study aimed to investigate whether a novel prehospital triage method, combining prehospital and hospital data with expert consultation, could increase the number of patients who could safely stay at home after...

Implementation of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency testing in Europe.
de With M, Sadlon A, Cecchin E, Haufroid V, Thomas F, Joerger M, van Schaik RHN, Mathijssen RHJ, Largiadèr CR, ‘The Working Group on the Implementation of DPD-deficiency Testing in Europe’
Background: The main cause for fluoropyrimidine-related toxicity is deficiency of the metabolizing enzyme dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD). In 2020, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommended two methods for pre-treatment DPD deficiency testing in clinical practice: phenotyping using endogenous uracil concentration or genotyping for DPYD risk variant alleles. This study assessed the DPD testing implementation status in Europe before (2019) and after (2021) the release of the EMA recomm...

Adventitial adaptive immune cells are associated with ascending aortic dilatation in patients with a bicuspid aortic valve.
Staal AHJ, Cortenbach KRG, Gorris MAJ, van der Woude LL, Srinivas M, Heijmen RH, Geuzebroek GSC, Grewal N, Hebeda KM, de Vries IJM, DeRuiter MC, van Kimmenade RRJ
Background: Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is associated with ascending aorta aneurysms and dissections. Presently, genetic factors and pathological flow patterns are considered responsible for aneurysm formation in BAV while the exact role of inflammatory processes remains unknown. Methods: In order to objectify inflammation, we employ a highly sensitive, quantitative immunohistochemistry approach. Whole slides of dissected, dilated and non-dilated ascending aortas from BAV patients were quantitat...

Optogenetic termination of atrial tachyarrhythmias by brief pulsed light stimulation.
Nakao M, Watanabe M, Miquerol L, Natsui H, Koizumi T, Kadosaka T, Koya T, Hagiwara H, Kamada R, Temma T, de Vries AAF, Anzai T
Aims: The most efficient way to acutely restore sinus rhythm from atrial fibrillation (AF) is electrical cardioversion, which is painful without adequate sedation. Recent studies in various experimental models have indicated that optogenetic termination of AF using light-gated ion channels may provide a myocardium-specific and potentially painless alternative future therapy. However, its underlying mechanism(s) remain(s) incompletely understood. As brief pulsed light stimulation, even without gl...

Bente BE, Wentzel J, Schepers C, Breeman LD, Janssen VR, Pieterse ME, Evers AWM, van Gemert-Pijnen L
Background: eHealth technology can help patients with cardiovascular disease adopt and maintain a healthy lifestyle by supporting self-management and offering guidance, coaching, and tailored information. However, to support patients over time, eHealth needs to blend in with their needs, treatment, and daily lives. Just as needs can differ between patients, needs can change within patients over time. To better adapt technology features to patients' needs, it is necessary to account for thes...

Histological evaluation of the aortic wall response following endovascular aneurysm repair and endovascular aneurysm sealing.
Bruijn LE, Heyligers JMM, Vriens PW, van Rhijn J, Roy J, Hamming JF, Gäbel G, Lindeman JHN
Objective: The Nellix endovascular aneurysm sealing (EVAS) system was developed as an alternative to conventional endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) to minimize endoleaks. A significantly higher failure rate of EVAS may be related to an interaction between the filled endobags and the AAA wall. In general, biological information on aortic remodeling after traditional EVAR is scarce. In this light, we provide here the first histologic evaluation of aneurysm wall morphology after EVAR and EVAS. Me...

Contemporary Management Strategies of Baffle Leaks in Adults with a Failing Systemic Right Ventricle Late after Atrial Switch: A Case Series and Literature Overview.
Neijenhuis RML, Regeer MV, van der Kley F, Vliegen HW, Jongbloed MRM, Kiès P, Schalij MJ, Jukema JW, Egorova AD
Baffle leaks are a frequently encountered and often overlooked complication after the atrial switch procedure for transposition of the great arteries. Baffle leaks are present in up to 50% of non-selected patients, and while they initially may not cause clear symptoms, they can complicate the hemodynamic course and influence the prognosis in this complex patient group. A shunt from the pulmonary venous atrium (PVA) to the systemic venous atrium (SVA) can lead to pulmonary overflow and subpulmona...

Robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) for higher stages non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) remains controversial. This study reports the feasibility of RATS in patients with stages IIB-IVA NSCLC. A single-institute, retrospective study was conducted with patients undergoing RATS for stages IIB-IVA NSCLC, from January 2015 until January 2020. Unforeseen N2 disease was excluded. Data were collected from the Dutch Lung Cancer Audit database. Conversion rate, radical (R0) resection rate, local r...

Identifying Patients at High Risk for Post-EVAR Aneurysm Sac Growth.
Bruijn LE, Louhichi J, Veger HTC, Wever JJ, van Dijk LC, van Overhagen H, Hamming JF, Statius van Eps RGS
Purpose: Post-EVAR (endovascular aneurysm repair) aneurysm sac growth can be seen as therapy failure as it is a risk factor for post-EVAR aneurysm rupture. This study sought to identify preoperative patient predictors for developing post-EVAR aneurysm sac growth. Material and methods: A systematic review was conducted to select potential predictive preoperative factors for post-EVAR sac growth (including a total of 34.886 patients), which were evaluated by a retrospective single-center analysis...
