Zeppenfeld K, Rademaker R, Al-Ahmad A, Carbucicchio C, De Chillou C, Cvek J, Ebert M, Ho G, Kautzner J, Lambiase P, Merino JL, Merino JL, Lloyd M, Misra S, Pruvot E, Sapp J, Schiappacasse L, Sramko M, Stevenson WG, Zei PC, Wichterle D, Chrispin J, Siklody CH, Neuwirth R, Pelargonio G, Reichlin T, Robinson C, Tondo C
Stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation (STAR) is a novel, non-invasive, and promising treatment option for ventricular arrhythmias (VAs). It has been applied in highly selected patients mainly as bailout procedure, when (multiple) catheter ablations, together with anti-arrhythmic drugs, were unable to control the VAs. Despite the increasing clinical use, there is still limited knowledge of the acute and long-term response of normal and diseased myocardium to STAR. Acute toxicity appeared to be re...

Unique Nerve Tissue-Restricted T-Cell Clones in Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy.
van Lieverloo GGA, Anang DC, Adrichem ME, Coert BA, Aronica AE, Wieske L, van Schaik IN, de Vries N, Eftimov F
Background and aims: Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is an immune-mediated disorder characterized by peripheral nerve damage. Although T lymphocytes (T-cells) are implicated in the pathogenesis of CIDP, we previously observed that the frequency of highly expanded T-cell clones (HECs) in peripheral blood of CIDP patients was not different from healthy controls. To investigate if local T-cells might be pathogenic, we employed next-generation sequencing to compare the TCRβ...

Regulation of cerebrovascular resistance below the lower limit of cerebral autoregulation during induced hypotension: an observational study.
Kho E, van den Dool REC, Mahes SS, Corsmit OT, Vlaar APJ, Koolbergen DR, Veelo DP, Sperna Weiland NH, Immink RV
Background: To maintain adequate perfusion, cerebral blood flow (CBF) is preserved by changes in cerebrovascular resistance (CVR) inversely related to fluctuations in mean arterial blood pressure (MAP). It has been hypothesised that during progressive hypotension, a lower limit of cerebral autoregulation (LLCA) is reached beyond which cerebrovascular dilation becomes exhausted and CBF starts to decrease together with BP. We tested this hypothesis by assessing CVR above and below the LLCA. Method...

Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) is a heterogeneous disease. Several studies have identified transcriptional subtypes of mCRPC, but comprehensive analysis of prognostic gene expression pathways has been limited. Therefore, we aggregated a cohort of 1012 mCRPC tissue samples from 769 patients and investigated the association of gene expression-based pathways with clinical outcomes and intrapatient and intratumor heterogeneity. Survival data were obtained for 272 patients. P...

Beyond Survival: Assessing Quality of Life, Activity Level, and Ethnic Diversity in Aortic Dissection Survivors.
Bacour N, van Erp O, Grewal S, Tirpan AU, Eberl S, Yeung KK, Balm R, Verwoert GC, Driessen AHG, Klautz RJM, Grewal N
Background: An acute aortic dissection (AAD) is a highly lethal condition that demands immediate medical intervention. Survivors often face significant long-term challenges. While immediate survival remains a critical focus in acute care settings, little is known about long-term results, especially with regard to activity levels, post-operative quality of life, and the impact of cultural and ethnic characteristics on recovery. Using data from the Dutch National Aortic Dissection Survivor's...
