Predictors for postoperative cranial nerve complications in carotid body tumor resection: a retrospective cohort study.
Alimohamad H, Yilmaz D, Marang-van de Mheen PJ, Jansen J, Hamming JF, Schepers A
Introduction: Carotid body tumors (CBTs) are slow-growing benign tumors. Therefore, surgical resection is considered in case of tumor growth. The timing of surgery is of the utmost importance as the risk of iatrogenic surgical complications increases when resecting larger tumors, whereas on the other hand, resections for asymptomatic small CBT should be prevented. The primary aim of this study was to identify which tumor size or dimension is most accurate to predict nerve injury in patients unde...

The Prevalence of Coronary Artery Disease in Bicuspid Aortic Valve Patients: An Overview of the Literature.
Dolmaci OB, Hilhorst TL, Malekzadeh A, Mertens BJA, Klautz RJM, Poelmann RE, Grewal N
The prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) patients is a debatable topic. Several studies have indicated that BAV patients have a lower prevalence of CAD compared with patients with a tricuspid aortic valve (TAV), but the effects of age and gender have not always been considered. This systematic review provides an overview of articles which report on CAD in BAV and TAV patients. Searches were executed in April 2021 and January 2022 according to the PRISMA (Pre...

Biologicals for pediatric patients with atopic dermatitis: practical challenges and knowledge gaps.
van der Rijst LP, van Royen-Kerkhof A, Pasmans SGMA, Schappin R, de Bruin-Weller MS, de Graaf M
Biologicals are becoming increasingly important in the therapeutic landscape of pediatric patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD). Currently, dupilumab and tralokinumab are registered for the treatment of moderate-to-severe AD, and novel biologicals are expected to follow. Dupilumab was the first biological registered for AD in pediatric patients and was recently approved for patients aged six months to five years. Current and emerging biologicals may address the unmet need for e...

Imaging in patients with cardiovascular implantable electronic devices: part 1-imaging before and during device implantation. A clinical consensus statement of the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging (EACVI) and the European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA) of the ESC.
Stankovic I, Voigt JU, Burri H, Muraru D, Sade LE, Haugaa KH, Lumens J, Biffi M, Dacher JN, Marsan NA, Bakelants E, Manisty C, Dweck MR, Smiseth OA, Donal E, Reviewers: This document was reviewed by members of the 2020-2022 EACVI Scientific Documents Committee:, by the 2020–2022 EACVI President:
More than 500 000 cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) are implanted in the European Society of Cardiology countries each year. The role of cardiovascular imaging in patients being considered for CIED is distinctly different from imaging in CIED recipients. In the former group, imaging can help identify specific or potentially reversible causes of heart block, the underlying tissue characteristics associated with malignant arrhythmias, and the mechanical consequences of conducti...

Laenens D, Stassen J, Galloo X, Ewe SH, Singh GK, Ammanullah MR, Hirasawa K, Sia CH, Butcher SC, Chew NWS, Kong WKF, Poh KK, Ding ZP, Ajmone Marsan N, Bax JJ
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) and aortic stenosis (AS) are both highly prevalent and often coexist. Various studies have focused on the prognostic value of AF in patients with AS, but rarely considered left ventricular (LV) diastolic function as a prognostic factor. Objective: To evaluate the prognostic impact of AF in patients with AS while correcting for LV diastolic function. Methods: Patients with first diagnosis of significant AS were selected and stratified according to history of A...

Characterization of Patient-Derived GNAQ Mutated Endothelial Cells from Capillary Malformations.
Langbroek GB, Stor MLE, Janssen V, de Haan A, Horbach SER, Graupera M, van Noesel CJM, van der Horst CMAM, Wolkerstorfer A, Huveneers S
Capillary malformations (CM) (port-wine stains) are congenital skin lesions that are characterized by dilated capillaries and postcapillary venules. CMs are caused by altered functioning of the vascular endothelium. Somatic genetic mutations have predominantly been identified in the endothelial cells of CMs, providing an opportunity for the development of targeted therapies. However, there is currently limited in-depth mechanistic insight into the pathophysiology and a lack of preclinical resear...

Hydrophobically modified complex coacervates for designing aqueous pressure-sensitive adhesives.
van Westerveld L, Es Sayed J, de Graaf M, Hofman AH, Kamperman M, Parisi D
The rheology of complex coacervates can be elegantly tuned via the design and control of specific non-covalent hydrophobic interactions between the complexed polymer chains. The well-controlled balance between elasticity and energy dissipation makes complex coacervates perfect candidates for pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs). In this work, the polyanion poly(3-sulfopropyl methacrylate) (PSPMA) and the polycation quaternized poly(4-vinylpyridine) (QP4VP) were used to prepare complex coacervates...

The association between sarcopenia and adverse outcomes after complex endovascular aortic repair.
Warmerdam BW, van Rijswijk CS, Droop A, Lucassen CJ, Hamming JF, van Schaik J, van der Vorst JR
Background: Sarcopenia is identified as a predictive factor for adverse outcomes after complex endovascular aortic repair (complex EVAR). Consensus on preferred parameters for sarcopenia is not yet reached. The current study compares three CT-assessed parameters on their association with adverse outcomes after complex EVAR. Methods: This was a single-center retrospective cohort study. Psoas Muscle Index (PMI), Skeletal Muscle Index (SMI), and lean psoas muscle area (LPMA) were examined by CT-seg...

SERS-based pH-Dependent detection of sulfites in wine by hydrogel nanocomposites.
Yilmaz D, Miranda B, Lonardo E, Rea I, De Stefano L, De Luca AC
Sulfur dioxide (SO2) and sulfites are well-known additives in winemaking due to their preservative properties. Although they can prevent oxidation and inhibit microbial growth, they pose health risks and require limitations on their use. Consequently, the total level of SO2 is regulated and several quantification strategies have been proposed. The approved detection methods require the extraction of SO2 by heating and/or acid treatment. Then, iodine or acid/base titrations are conducted for the...

Brief lifestyle advice in cardiac care: an experimental study on message source and framing.
IJzerman RVH, van der Vaart R, Breeman LD, van den Broek I, Keesman M, Kraaijenhagen RA, Reijnders T, Weerts M, Evers AWM, Scholte Op Reimer WJM, Janssen VR, BENEFIT consortium
Objective: Communicating risk information and offering lifestyle advice are important goals in cardiac rehabilitation. However, the most effective way and the most effective source to communicate this information are not yet known. Therefore, we examined the effect of source (cardiologist, physiotherapist) and framing (gain, loss) of brief lifestyle advice on patients' intention-to-change-lifestyle. Methods: In an online experimental study, 636 cardiac patients (40% female, 67 (10) yrs.) we...

Unusual Oligomeric Laccase-like Oxidases from Ascomycete <i>Curvularia geniculata</i> VKM F-3561 Polymerizing Phenylpropanoids and Phenolic Compounds under Neutral Environmental Conditions.
Renfeld ZV, Chernykh AM, Baskunov BP, Gaidina AS, Myasoedova NM, Egorova AD, Moiseeva OV, Gorina SY, Kolomytseva MP
The unique oligomeric alkaliphilic laccase-like oxidases of the ascomycete C. geniculata VKM F-3561 (with molecular masses about 1035 and 870 kDa) were purified and characterized for the first time. The ability of the enzymes to oxidize phenylpropanoids and phenolic compounds under neutral environmental conditions with the formation of previously unknown di-, tri-, and tetrameric products of transformation was shown.

Predicting Radiation-Induced Lung Injury in Patients With Lung Cancer: Challenges and Opportunities.
Kuipers ME, van Doorn-Wink KCJ, Hiemstra PS, Slats AM
Radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) is one of the main dose-limiting toxicities in radiation therapy (RT) for lung cancer. Approximately 10% to 20% of patients show signs of RILI of variable severity. The reason for the wide range of RILI severity and the mechanisms underlying its development are only partially understood. A number of clinical risk factors have been identified that can aid in clinical decision making. Technological advancements in RT and the use of strict organ-at-risk dose con...
