Self-Reported Emotions in Simulation-Based Learning: Active Participants vs. Observers.
Rogers T, Andler C, OʼBrien B, van Schaik S
Introduction: Experiential learning through active participation is thought to be a key benefit of simulation-based education. Recent research has challenged this assumption, suggesting that active participants learn just as well as observers. Studies report that active participants experience stress and anxiety during simulation, which may hamper learning by active participants. We undertook the current study to examine whether active participation results in different emotional arousal than ob...

Left ventricular 2D speckle tracking echocardiography for detection of systolic dysfunction in genetic, dilated cardiomyopathies.
van der Bijl P, Bootsma M, Hiemstra YL, Ajmone Marsan N, Bax JJ, Delgado V
Aims: Genetic, dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) can be caused by a large variety of mutations. Mutation carriers are often asymptomatic until DCM is well established, presenting with heart failure, arrhythmias, or sudden cardiac death. Preventive strategies can only be applied if DCM can be detected early. Echocardiographic, left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) is a promising tool for early diagnosis, i.e. before a decrease in LV ejection fraction (EF) has occurred. We, therefore,...

T cell co-stimulation and co-inhibition in cardiovascular disease: a double-edged sword.
Simons KH, de Jong A, Jukema JW, de Vries MR, Arens R, Quax PHA
The role of inflammation in cardiovascular disease (CVD) is now widely accepted. Immune cells, including T cells, are influenced by inflammatory signals and contribute to the onset and progression of CVD. T cell activation is modulated by T cell co-stimulation and co-inhibition pathways. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) targeting T cell inhibition pathways have revolutionized cancer treatment and improved survival in patients with cancer. However, ICIs might induce cardiovascular toxicity via...

Lancellotti P, Suter TM, López-Fernández T, Galderisi M, Lyon AR, Van der Meer P, Cohen Solal A, Zamorano JL, Jerusalem G, Moonen M, Aboyans V, Bax JJ, Asteggiano R
Aims: Anticancer therapies have extended the lives of millions of patients with malignancies, but for some this benefit is tempered by adverse cardiovascular (CV) effects. Cardiotoxicity may occur early or late after treatment initiation or termination. The extent of this cardiotoxicity is variable, depending on the type of drug used, combination with other drugs, mediastinal radiotherapy, the presence of CV risk factors, and comorbidities. A recent position paper from the European Society of Ca...

Artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed key aspects of human life. Machine learning (ML), which is a subset of AI wherein machines autonomously acquire information by extracting patterns from large databases, has been increasingly used within the medical community, and specifically within the domain of cardiovascular diseases. In this review, we present a brief overview of ML methodologies that are used for the construction of inferential and predictive data-driven models. We highlight seve...

Barbanti M, van Mourik MS, Spence MS, Iacovelli F, Martinelli GL, Muir DF, Saia F, Bortone AS, Densem CG, van der Kley F, Bramlage P, Vis M, Tamburino C
Aims: Treatment pathway optimisation in TAVI should include timely patient discharge with a minimised risk for out-of-hospital adverse events. The aim of this study was to define a standardised set of risk criteria that allows a safe and timely discharge, to validate their appropriateness prospectively in different centres and multiple European countries, and to assess post-discharge outcomes. Methods and results: We defined and validated the adequacy of a set of discharge criteria and its abili...

Does socio-ecology drive differences in alertness between wolves and dogs when resting?
Kortekaas K, Kotrschal K
Variation in resting behaviour across animals may be driven by adaptations towards their environment. Wolves and dogs seem promising models to examine this idea as they share a common ancestor, but occupy different socio-ecological niches. While wolves generally avoid humans, hunt, defend their territory, and raise offspring cooperatively, most dogs live in human-shaped environments. Hence, we hypothesized wolves to be more alert towards their environment than dogs, i.e. the degree of activation...

Diagnosis and treatment response in the asymmetric variant of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy.
Lucke IM, Wieske L, van der Kooi AJ, van Schaik IN, Eftimov F, Verhamme C
The objectives were to (a) assess the diagnostic value of testing clinically affected and unaffected limbs with nerve conduction studies (NCS) in patients with the asymmetric chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) variant and to define the most useful strategy for diagnosis, and (b) describe treatment response and long-term outcome. We performed a retrospective study and included patients with a multifocal distribution of symptoms and signs, who met the probable or defi...

Using maximal systolic acceleration to diagnose and assess the severity of peripheral artery disease in a flow model study.
Brouwers JJWM, van Doorn LP, van Wissen RC, Putter H, Hamming JF
Background: Because of the presence of medial calcific sclerosis, both ankle-branchial index and toe pressure measures can yield misleading results when attempting to diagnose peripheral artery disease (PAD). A new ultrasound parameter, maximal systolic acceleration (ACCmax), can be an accurate tool for diagnosing PAD, including in diabetic patients. However, it has not been evaluated thoroughly. The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of using ACCmax to diagnose and assess the sever...

Prevalence and Prognostic Implications of Right Ventricular Dysfunction in Patients With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.
Hiemstra YL, Debonnaire P, Bootsma M, Schalij MJ, Bax JJ, Delgado V, Marsan NA
Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is a well-known prognostic factor in several cardiac diseases. However, the prevalence of RV dysfunction in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC) is unclear and its prognostic value is unknown. This study aims at addressing these issues assessing RV function with speckle tracking echocardiography. In 267 HC patients (52 ± 15 years, 68% male), standard and advanced echocardiographic measurements of RV function were performed including RV 4-chamber longitudinal strain...

Animals as Reservoir for Human Norovirus.
Villabruna N, Koopmans MPG, de Graaf M
Norovirus is the most common cause of non-bacterial gastroenteritis and is a burden worldwide. The increasing norovirus diversity is currently categorized into at least 10 genogroups which are further classified into more than 40 genotypes. In addition to humans, norovirus can infect a broad range of hosts including livestock, pets, and wild animals, e.g., marine mammals and bats. Little is known about norovirus infections in most non-human hosts, but the close genetic relatedness between some a...
