Binks JA, Wilson CJ, Van Schaik P, Eaves DL
In this study we explored training effects for combined action observation and motor imagery (AO + MI) instructions on a complex cup-stacking task, without physical practice. Using a Graeco-Latin Square design, we randomly assigned twenty-six participants into four groups. This counterbalanced the within-participant factor of practice condition (AO + MI, AO, MI, Control) across four cup-stacking tasks, which varied in their complexity. On each of the three consecutive practice days participants...

Transpericardial resection of a mediastinal paraganglioma.
Velders BJJ, Schneider A, Braun J
Paragangliomas are tumours originating from the autonomic nervous system and rarely occur in the chest. They may manifest through symptoms of excess catecholamine release or due to local compression, can be an incidental finding on a computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging examination or can be found when screening patients with specific gene mutations. Surgical removal is indicated in case of symptoms, (imminent) compression of vital structures or to prevent progression to malignancy. Re...

Bayesian diagnostic test evaluation and true prevalence estimation of mycoplasma bovis in dairy herds.
Veldhuis A, Aalberts M, Penterman P, Wever P, van Schaik G
The true prevalence of dairy cattle herds with M. bovis infections in the Netherlands is unknown. Previous attempts to estimate prevalences were hampered by the absence of a diagnostic serological test that was validated under field conditions. This study estimated sensitivity and specificity of two commercial serum ELISAs and the true M. bovis herd prevalence using different Bayesian latent class models. A total of 7305 serum samples from 415 randomly chosen dairy herds were collected in fall/w...

Hfe Actions in Kupffer Cells Are Dispensable for Hepatic and Systemic Iron Metabolism.
Knoop P, Yilmaz D, Paganoni R, Steele-Perkins P, Gruber A, Akdogan B, Zischka H, Leopold K, Vujić Spasić M
Mutations in the HFE/Hfe gene cause Hereditary Hemochromatosis (HH), a highly prevalent genetic disorder characterized by elevated iron deposition in multiple tissues. HFE acts in hepatocytes to control hepcidin expression, whereas HFE actions in myeloid cells are required for cell-autonomous and systemic iron regulation in aged mice. To address the role of HFE specifically in liver-resident macrophages, we generated mice with a selective Hfe deficiency in Kupffer cells (HfeClec4fCre). The analy...

The accuracy of cystoscopy in predicting muscle invasion in newly diagnosed bladder cancer patients.
van Straten CGJI, Bruins MH, Dijkstra S, Cornel EB, Kortleve MDH, de Vocht TF, Kiemeney LALM, van der Heijden AG
Purpose: The prognosis of muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) has not improved for three decades. Transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT) is the standard procedure for local tumor staging. TURBT has several limitations, including the spread of tumor cells. Therefore, an alternative is needed in patients with suspected MIBC. Recent studies have shown that mpMRI is very accurate in staging bladder tumors. Because the diagnostic efficacy of urethrocystoscopy (UCS) has been reported a...
