The diversity in the clinical features of children hospitalized with COVID-19 during the nonvariant, Alpha (B.1.1.7), Delta (B.1.617.2), and Omicron (B.1.1.529) variant periods of SARS CoV-2: Caution for neurological symptoms in Omicron variant.
Sahin A, Karadag-Oncel E, Buyuksen O, Ekemen-Keles Y, Ustundag G, Elvan-Tuz A, Tasar S, Didinmez-Taskirdi E, Baykan M, Kara-Aksay A, Yilmaz N, Olgac-Dundar N, Yilmaz D
Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, various severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 variants have been identified with different characteristics than the nonvariant strain. We retrospectively evaluated the demographic and clinical differences in the cohort of hospitalized COVID-19 children (1 month-18 years old) between March 11, 2020, and September 31, 2022, by the time the variants identified in our country predominate. Bonferroni post hoc analysis was performed to compare the differenc...

Extended parental provisioning and variation in vertebrate brain sizes.
van Schaik CP, Song Z, Schuppli C, Drobniak SM, Heldstab SA, Griesser M
Large brains provide adaptive cognitive benefits but require unusually high, near-constant energy inputs and become fully functional well after their growth is completed. Consequently, young of most larger-brained endotherms should not be able to independently support the growth and development of their own brains. This paradox is solved if the evolution of extended parental provisioning facilitated brain size evolution. Comparative studies indeed show that extended parental provisioning coevolv...

Non-Infectious Uveitis Secondary to Dupilumab Treatment in Atopic Dermatitis Patients Shows a Pro-Inflammatory Molecular Profile.
Achten R, van Luijk C, Thijs J, Drylewicz J, Delemarre E, Nierkens S, Bakker D, van Wijk F, de Graaf M, de Bruin-Weller M, de Boer J, Kuiper J
Severe uveitis is a rare complication of interleukin-4 receptor alpha blocking by dupilumab in topic dermatitis (AD) patients. The aim of this study was to describe five moderate-to-severe AD patients who developed uveitis during dupilumab treatment and to compare the proteomic profile of aqueous humor (AqH) of dupilumab-associated uveitis (n=3/5 available samples) with non-infectious uveitis (n=27) and cataract controls (n=11). Included patients were treated at the University Medical Center Utr...

Put your money where your feet are: The real-world effects of StepBet gamified deposit contracts for physical activity.
de Buisonjé DR, Brosig F, Breeman LD, Bloom EL, Reijnders T, Janssen VR, Kraaijenhagen RA, Kemps HMC, Evers AWM
Background: Gamification and deposit contracts (a financial incentive in which participants pledge their own money) can enhance effectiveness of mobile behavior change interventions. However, to assess their potential for improving population health, research should investigate implementation of gamified deposit contracts outside the research setting. Therefore, we analyzed data from StepBet, a smartphone application originally developed by WayBetter, Inc. Objective: To perform a naturalistic ev...

Feasibility of Community Pharmacist-Initiated and Point-of-Care <i>CYP2C19</i> Genotype-Guided De-Escalation of Oral P2Y12 Inhibitors.
Levens AD, den Haan MC, Jukema JW, Heringa M, van den Hout WB, Moes DJAR, Swen JJ
Tailoring antiplatelet therapy based on CYP2C19 pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing can improve cardiovascular outcomes and potentially reduce healthcare costs in patients on a P2Y12-inhibitor regime with prasugrel or ticagrelor. However, ubiquitous adoption-particularly in an outpatient setting-remains limited. We conducted a proof-of-concept study to evaluate the feasibility of CYP2C19-guided de-escalation of prasugrel/ticagrelor to clopidogrel through point-of-care (POC) PGx testing in the communit...

Validity of Routinely Reported Rutherford Scores Reported by Clinicians as Part of Daily Clinical Practice.
van der Heijden LLM, Marang-van de Mheen PJ, Thielman L, Stijnen P, Hamming JF, Fourneau I
Routinely reported structured data from the electronic health record (EHR) are frequently used for secondary purposes. However, it is unknown how valid routinely reported data are for reuse. This study aimed to assess the validity of routinely reported Rutherford scores by clinicians as an indicator for the validity of structured data in the EHR. This observational study compared clinician-reported Rutherford scores with medical record review Rutherford scores for all visits at the vascular surg...

Genetic analysis of infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) in vaccinated poultry populations over a period of 10 years.
Vermeulen CJ, Dijkman R, de Wit JJS, Bosch BJ, Heesterbeek JAPH, van Schaik G
Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) is an avian pathogen from the Coronavirus family causing major health issues in poultry flocks worldwide. Because of its negative impact on health, performance, and bird welfare, commercial poultry are routinely vaccinated by administering live attenuated virus. However, field strains are capable of rapid adaptation and may evade vaccine-induced immunity. We set out to describe dynamics within and between lineages and assess potential escape from vaccine-induced...

Ünal S, Winkelman JA, Heineman DJ, Bahce I, van Dorp M, Braun JA, Hashemi S, Senan S, Paul MA, Dahele M, Dickhoff C
Introduction: Superior sulcus tumors (SSTs) are uncommon, and their anatomical location can make treatment challenging. We analyzed late outcomes of patients with SST treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by surgical resection (trimodality) in a single tertiary institution. Methods: Patients with non-small cell SSTs, who underwent trimodality therapy between 2002 and 2017, were selected from a prospective institutional surgical database. Patients were uniformly staged with 18F-fluor...

Prognostic impact of left ventricular global longitudinal strain in atrial mitral regurgitation.
Meucci MC, Stassen J, Tomsic A, Palmen M, Crea F, Bax JJ, Ajmone Marsan N, Delgado V
Objective: Left atrial (LA) and left ventricular (LV) mechanics are impaired in patients with atrial functional mitral regurgitation (AFMR), but their prognostic value in this subset of patients remains unknown. The present study aimed to evaluate the association between LA and LV longitudinal strain and clinical outcomes in patients with AFMR. Methods: A total of 197 patients (mean age 73±10 years, 44% men) with at least moderate AFMR were retrospectively identified. LV global longitudinal stra...

Coronary calcium score in COVID-19 survivors: Association with cardiac injury and cardiac function after 6 weeks.
Groen RA, de Graaf MA, Stöger JL, van Dijkman PRM, Jukema JW, Schalij MJ, Geelhoed JJM, Antoni ML
Aims: Cardiac manifestations are common in COVID-19, often elevated serum troponin levels or myocardial dysfunction on trans-thoracic echocardiography (TTE) is observed. Both parameters are associated with increased in-hospital mortality. Possibly, subclinical coronary atherosclerosis plays a role, of which severity can be assessed by calculating the coronary artery calcium (CAC) score. This study aims to determine the relation between coronary atherosclerosis and cardiac manifestations in COVID...

Most neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) common in frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are currently not part of the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI). We piloted an FTD Module that included eight extra items to be used in conjunction with the NPI. Caregivers of patients with behavioural variant FTD (n = 49), primary progressive aphasia (PPA; n = 52), Alzheimer's dementia (AD; n = 41), psychiatric disorders (n = 18), presymptomatic mutation carriers (n = 58) and controls (n = 58) completed the NPI and...

Visualizing the lymphatic vessels and flow with high-resolution ultrasonography and microvascular flow imaging.
Vullings JJJ, Schaik CV, Fütterer JJ, de Korte CL, Klein WM
Imaging of the lymphatic system has always encountered difficulties, such as high costs, timeconsuming procedures, and low-resolution images. Each method of imaging provides its own challenges. The use of high-resolution ultrasonography (HR-US) and microvascular flow imaging (MVFI) may prove to be the most effective method for visualizing the superficial lymphatic vessels. This study investigated the utilization of HR-US and MVFI in imaging inguinal lymph nodes and vessels, as well as the innova...
