Journal of molecular and cellular cardiology, Volume 178, 24 4 2023, Pages 9-21 Optogenetic termination of atrial tachyarrhythmias by brief pulsed light stimulation. Nakao M, Watanabe M, Miquerol L, Natsui H, Koizumi T, Kadosaka T, Koya T, Hagiwara H, Kamada R, Temma T, de Vries AAF, Anzai T
Aims: The most efficient way to acutely restore sinus rhythm from atrial fibrillation (AF) is electrical cardioversion, which is painful without adequate sedation. Recent studies in various experimental models have indicated that optogenetic termination of AF using light-gated ion channels may provide a myocardium-specific and potentially painless alternative future therapy. However, its underlying mechanism(s) remain(s) incompletely understood. As brief pulsed light stimulation, even without gl... Abstract

Bente BE, Wentzel J, Schepers C, Breeman LD, Janssen VR, Pieterse ME, Evers AWM, van Gemert-Pijnen L
Background: eHealth technology can help patients with cardiovascular disease adopt and maintain a healthy lifestyle by supporting self-management and offering guidance, coaching, and tailored information. However, to support patients over time, eHealth needs to blend in with their needs, treatment, and daily lives. Just as needs can differ between patients, needs can change within patients over time. To better adapt technology features to patients' needs, it is necessary to account for thes... Abstract
JVS-vascular science, Volume 4, 23 4 2023, Pages 100101 Histological evaluation of the aortic wall response following endovascular aneurysm repair and endovascular aneurysm sealing. Bruijn LE, Heyligers JMM, Vriens PW, van Rhijn J, Roy J, Hamming JF, Gäbel G, Lindeman JHN
Objective: The Nellix endovascular aneurysm sealing (EVAS) system was developed as an alternative to conventional endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) to minimize endoleaks. A significantly higher failure rate of EVAS may be related to an interaction between the filled endobags and the AAA wall. In general, biological information on aortic remodeling after traditional EVAR is scarce. In this light, we provide here the first histologic evaluation of aneurysm wall morphology after EVAR and EVAS. Me... Abstract

Journal of cardiovascular development and disease, Volume 10, Issue 3, 17 3 2023, Pages 129 Contemporary Management Strategies of Baffle Leaks in Adults with a Failing Systemic Right Ventricle Late after Atrial Switch: A Case Series and Literature Overview. Neijenhuis RML, Regeer MV, van der Kley F, Vliegen HW, Jongbloed MRM, Kiès P, Schalij MJ, Jukema JW, Egorova AD
Baffle leaks are a frequently encountered and often overlooked complication after the atrial switch procedure for transposition of the great arteries. Baffle leaks are present in up to 50% of non-selected patients, and while they initially may not cause clear symptoms, they can complicate the hemodynamic course and influence the prognosis in this complex patient group. A shunt from the pulmonary venous atrium (PVA) to the systemic venous atrium (SVA) can lead to pulmonary overflow and subpulmona... Abstract

The 3-dimensional spatial and 2-dimensional frontal QRS-T angles are measures derived from the vectorcardiogram. They are independent risk predictors for arrhythmia, but the underlying biology is unknown. Using multi-ancestry genome-wide association studies we identify 61 (58 previously unreported) loci for the spatial QRS-T angle (N = 118,780) and 11 for the frontal QRS-T angle (N = 159,715). Seven out of the 61 spatial QRS-T angle loci have not been reported for other electrocardiographic meas... Abstract

Biomedicines, Volume 11, Issue 3, 13 2 2023, Pages 867 Natriuretic Peptide Levels and Stages of Left Ventricular Dysfunction in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction. Dal Canto E, Scheffer M, Kortekaas K, Driessen-Waaijer A, Paulus WJ, van Heerebeek L
In heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), natriuretic peptide (NP) levels are frequently lower. In several trials, the outcome differed between patients with low and high NP levels. This suggests that NP could be used to identify distinct stages of left ventricular (LV) remodeling and myocardial tissue composition. This study investigated cardiac remodeling/dysfunction and myocardial tissue characteristics assessed by echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in HFpE... Abstract

Journal of cardiovascular computed tomography, Volume 17, Issue 3, 13 2 2023, Pages 177-184 Plaque volume, composition, and fraction versus ischemia and outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease. Kuneman JH, van den Hoogen IJ, Schultz J, Maaniitty T, van Rosendael AR, Kamperidis V, de Graaf MA, Broersen A, Jukema JW, Bax JJ, Saraste A, Knuuti J
Background: The various plaque components have been associated with ischemia and outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). The main goal of this analysis was to test the hypothesis that, at patient level, the fraction of non-calcified plaque volume (PV) of total PV is associated with ischemia and outcomes in patients with CAD. This ratio could be a simple and clinically useful parameter, if predicting outcomes. Methods: Consecutive patients with suspected CAD undergoing coronary c... Abstract

Nature reviews. Clinical oncology, Volume 20, Issue 5, 13 2 2023, Pages 287-304 Global trends in the epidemiology of bladder cancer: challenges for public health and clinical practice. van Hoogstraten LMC, Vrieling A, van der Heijden AG, Kogevinas M, Richters A, Kiemeney LA
Bladder cancer is among the ten most common cancers globally, causes considerable morbidity and mortality and is, therefore, a substantial burden for health-care systems. The incidence of bladder cancer is affected by demographic trends, most notably population growth and ageing, as well as exposure to risk factors, especially tobacco smoking. Consequently, the incidence has not been stable throughout the world over time, nor will it be in the near future. Further primary prevention efforts are... Abstract

European journal of heart failure, Volume 25, Issue 4, 10 2 2023, Pages 457-468 Inotropic therapy in patients with advanced heart failure. A clinical consensus statement from the Heart Failure Association of the European Society of Cardiology. Gustafsson F, Damman K, Nalbantgil S, Van Laake LW, Tops LF, Thum T, Adamopoulos S, Bonios M, Coats AJ, Crespo-Leiro MG, Mehra MR, Filippatos G, Hill L, Metra M, Jankowska E, de Jonge N, Kaye D, Masetti M, Parissis J, Milicic D, Seferovic P, Rosano G, Ben Gal T
This clinical consensus statement reviews the use of inotropic support in patients with advanced heart failure. The current guidelines only support use of inotropes in the setting of acute decompensated heart failure with evidence of organ malperfusion or shock. However, inotropic support may be reasonable in other patients with advanced heart failure without acute severe decompensation. The clinical evidence supporting use of inotropes in these situations is reviewed. Particularly, patients wit... Abstract
