Papazisi O, Bruggemans EF, Berendsen RR, Hugo JDV, Lindeman JHN, Beeres SLMA, Arbous MS, van den Hout WB, Mertens BJA, Ince C, Klautz RJM, Palmen M
Introduction: Vasoplegia is a common complication after cardiac surgery and is associated with poor prognosis. It is characterised by refractory hypotension despite normal or even increased cardiac output. The pathophysiology is complex and includes the systemic inflammatory response caused by cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and surgical trauma. Patients with end-stage heart failure (HF) are at increased risk for developing vasoplegia. The CytoSorb adsorber is a relatively new haemoadsorption devic... Abstract

The American journal of cardiology, Volume 182, 6 1 2022, Pages 69-76 Impact of Left Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain on Outcomes After Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair in Secondary Mitral Regurgitation. Yoon SH, Makar M, Kar S, Koseki K, Oakley L, Sekhon N, Patel D, Chakravarty T, Nakamura M, Hamilton M, Patel JK, Singh S, Sabah S, Siegel RJ, Bax JJ, Makkar RR
Assessment of left ventricular (LV) systolic function is essential in patient selection for transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) in secondary mitral regurgitation (MR). Although LV ejection fraction (EF) is mostly used for assessing LV function, it represents the change of LV chamber size, but not myocardial contractility. LV global longitudinal strain (GLS) provides an alternative to assess LV systolic function in patients with secondary MR. This study included 380 patients with secondary M... Abstract

PloS one, Volume 17, Issue 9, 6 1 2022, Pages e0273182 Indisulam synergizes with palbociclib to induce senescence through inhibition of CDK2 kinase activity. Pogacar Z, Johnson JL, Krenning L, De Conti G, Jochems F, Lieftink C, Velds A, Wardak L, Groot K, Schepers A, Wang L, Song JY, van de Ven M, van Tellingen O, Medema RH, Beijersbergen RL, Bernards R, Leite de Oliveira R
Inducing senescence in cancer cells is emerging as a new therapeutic strategy. In order to find ways to enhance senescence induction by palbociclib, a CDK4/6 inhibitor approved for treatment of metastatic breast cancer, we performed functional genetic screens in palbociclib-resistant cells. Using this approach, we found that loss of CDK2 results in strong senescence induction in palbociclib-treated cells. Treatment with the CDK2 inhibitor indisulam, which phenocopies genetic CDK2 inactivation, l... Abstract

Aims: Moderate aortic stenosis (AS) is associated with an increased risk of adverse events. Because outcomes in patients with AS are ultimately driven by the condition of the left ventricle (LV) and not by the valve, assessment of LV remodelling seems important for risk stratification. This study evaluated the association between different LV remodelling patterns and outcomes in patients with moderate AS. Methods and results: Patients with moderate AS (aortic valve area 1.0-1.5 cm2) were identif... Abstract

The QT interval is an electrocardiographic measure representing the sum of ventricular depolarization and repolarization, estimated by QRS duration and JT interval, respectively. QT interval abnormalities are associated with potentially fatal ventricular arrhythmia. Using genome-wide multi-ancestry analyses (>250,000 individuals) we identify 177, 156 and 121 independent loci for QT, JT and QRS, respectively, including a male-specific X-chromosome locus. Using gene-based rare-variant methods,... Abstract
