Journal of clinical medicine, Volume 11, Issue 23, 1 1 2022, Pages 7147 The Predictive Power of the 14-51 Ng/L High Sensitive Troponin T (hsTnT) Values for Predicting Cardiac Revascularization in a Clinical Setting. De Jongh FW, Pouwels S, De Jongh MC, Dubois EA, van Schaik RHN
Background: high sensitive Troponin T (hsTnT) values between 14−50 ng/L represent a challenge in diagnosing acute coronary syndrome (ACS) at the Emergency Department (ED). The European Society for Cardiology (ESC) recommends a second hsTnT measurement 3 h later to distinguish between ACS and other causes depending on the Δ hsTnT. Our study aims to evaluate the predictive power this approach in a clinical setting by following patients presenting at the ED with hsTnT values 14−51 ng/L. Materials a... Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted grief experiences of bereaved relatives and altered accustomed ways of coping with loss. To understand how bereaved relatives experienced grief during COVID-19, a review, using the overview method, was conducted. An overview of empirical data about this subject has been lacking and therefore, PubMed and CINAHL databases were searched for empirical studies published from January 1, 2020 until December 31, 2021. 28 articles were included in the review. Thematic... Abstract

Clinical cancer research : an official journal of the American Association for Cancer Research, Volume 28, Issue 24, 1 1 2022, Pages 5396-5404 Intrinsic Molecular Subtypes of Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer. Feng E, Rydzewski NR, Zhang M, Lundberg A, Bootsma M, Helzer KT, Lang JM, Aggarwal R, Small EJ, Quigley DA, Sjöström M, Zhao SG
Purpose: Although numerous biology-driven subtypes have been described previously in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), unsupervised molecular subtyping based on gene expression has been less studied, especially using large cohorts. Thus, we sought to identify the intrinsic molecular subtypes of mCRPC and assess molecular and clinical correlates in the largest combined cohort of mCRPC samples with gene expression data available to date. Experimental design: We combined and... Abstract

Background: Published empirical data have increasingly suggested that using near-infrared fluorescence cholangiography during laparoscopic cholecystectomy markedly increases biliary anatomy visualization. The technology is rapidly evolving, and different equipment and doses may be used. We aimed to identify areas of consensus and nonconsensus in the use of incisionless near-infrared fluorescent cholangiography during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods: A 2-round Delphi survey was conducted am... Abstract

Stassen J, van Wijngaarden AL, Butcher SC, Palmen M, Herbots L, Bax JJ, Delgado V, Ajmone Marsan N
Aims: Mitral regurgitation (MR) has a significant haemodynamic impact on the left atrium. Assessment of left atrial reservoir strain (LARS) may have important prognostic implications, incremental to left atrial (LA) volume, and conventional parameters of left ventricular (LV) structure and function.

Vascular biology (Bristol, England), Volume 4, Issue 1, 30 5 2022, Pages 40-49 No prominent role for complement C1-esterase inhibitor in Marfan syndrome mice. Hibender S, Li S, Postma AV, Hoogeland ME, Klaver D, Pouw RB, Niessen HW, Driessen AH, Koolbergen DR, de Vries CJ, Baars MJ, Houweling AC, Krijnen PA, de Waard V
Marfan syndrome (MFS) is a connective tissue disorder causing aortic aneurysm formation. Currently, only prophylactic aortic surgery and blood pressure-lowering drugs are available to reduce the risk of aortic rupture. Upon whole genome sequencing of a Marfan family, we identified a complement gene C1R variant (p.Ser152Leu), which is associated with severe aortic patients. Therefore, we assessed the role of complement activation in MFS aortic tissue. Expression of various complement genes and pr... Abstract

Tomee SM, Bulder RMA, Meijer CA, van Berkum I, Hinnen JW, Schoones JW, Golledge J, Bastiaannet E, Matsumura JS, Hamming JF, Hultgren R, Lindeman JH
Objective: Previous studies imply a profound residual mortality risk following successful abdominal aorta aneurysm (AAA) repair. This excess mortality is generally attributed to increased cardiovascular risk. The aim of this study was (1) to quantify the excess residual mortality for patients with AAA, (2) to evaluate the cross sectional level of cardiovascular risk management, and (3) to estimate the potential of optimised cardiovascular risk management to reduce the excess mortality in these p...

European journal of human genetics : EJHG, Volume 31, Issue 9, 28 4 2022, Pages 982-987 Dutch pharmacogenetics working group (DPWG) guideline for the gene-drug interaction between UGT1A1 and irinotecan. Hulshof EC, Deenen MJ, Nijenhuis M, Soree B, de Boer-Veger NJ, Buunk AM, Houwink EJF, Risselada A, Rongen GAPJM, van Schaik RHN, Touw DJ, van der Weide J, van Westrhenen R, Deneer VHM, Guchelaar HJ, Swen JJ
The Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) aims to facilitate PGx implementation by developing evidence-based pharmacogenetics guidelines to optimize pharmacotherapy. This guideline describes the starting dose optimization of the anti-cancer drug irinotecan to decrease the risk of severe toxicity, such as (febrile) neutropenia or diarrhoea. Uridine diphosphate glucuronosyl transferase 1A1 (UGT1A1 encoded by the UGT1A1 gene) enzyme deficiency increases risk of irinotecan-induced toxicity. Ge... Abstract
