High-Dose Methylphenidate and Carboxylesterase 1 Genetic Variability in Patients With Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: A Case Series.
Westerkamp AC, Pereira RR, Huitema VR, Kouwert EAM, Matic M, van Schaik RHN, Punt N, Schoevers RA, Touw DJ
Purpose/background: Methylphenidate (MPH) is widely used to reduce symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Methylphenidate is metabolized by the carboxylesterase 1 (CES1) enzyme. Some patients need a very high dose of MPH to reach desired clinical effects, without having adverse effects. This may be due to differences in MPH pharmacokinetics (PK), potentially caused by DNA variants in CES1 , the gene encoding the enzyme that metabolizes MPH. Here we describe 3 patients requiring hi...

Korede V, Veldhuis M, Penha FM, Nagalingam N, Cui P, Van der Heijden AEDM, Kramer HJM, Eral HB
Herein, we study the influences of the laser-exposed volume and the irradiation position on the nonphotochemical laser-induced nucleation (NPLIN) of supersaturated potassium chloride solutions in water. The effect of the exposed volume on the NPLIN probability was studied by exposing distinct milliliter-scale volumes of aqueous potassium chloride solutions stored in vials at two different supersaturations (1.034 and 1.050) and laser intensities (10 and 23 MW/cm2). Higher NPLIN probabilities were...

Coexistence of specialist and generalist species within mixed plastic derivative-utilizing microbial communities.
Schaerer L, Putman L, Bigcraft I, Byrne E, Kulas D, Zolghadr A, Aloba S, Ong R, Shonnard D, Techtmann S
Background: Plastic-degrading microbial isolates offer great potential to degrade, transform, and upcycle plastic waste. Tandem chemical and biological processing of plastic wastes has been shown to substantially increase the rates of plastic degradation; however, the focus of this work has been almost entirely on microbial isolates (either bioengineered or naturally occurring). We propose that a microbial community has even greater potential for plastic upcycling. A microbial community has grea...

Oral Anticoagulation Versus Antiplatelet Treatment After Mitral Valve Repair: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Tomšič A, Zhao C, Schoones JW, Klautz RJM, Palmen M
Oral anticoagulation with vitamin K antagonists is currently advised for a period of 3 months after surgical mitral valve repair, regardless of the rhythm status. The evidence supporting this recommendation is weak and recent studies have challenged the safety and efficacy of this recommendation. A systematic review of literature was conducted by searching PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Emcare, and Cochrane Library databases for original publications comparing the efficacy and safety of oral an...

Evaluation of Clinical Applicability of Coronary Artery Calcium Assessment on Non-Gated Chest Computed Tomography, Compared With the Classic Agatston Score on Cardiac Computed Tomography.
Groen RA, Jukema JW, van Dijkman PRM, Timmermans PT, Bax JJ, Lamb HJ, de Graaf MA
Given current pretest probability (PTP) estimations tend to overestimate patients' risk for obstructive coronary artery disease, evaluation of patients' coronary artery calcium (CAC) is more precise. The value of CAC assessment with the Agatston score on cardiac computed tomography (CT) for risk estimation has been well indicated in patients with stable chest pain. CAC can be equally well assessed on routine non-gated chest CT, which is often available. This study aims to determine the...
