Identifying Women at High Risk of 90 Day Death after Elective Open Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair: A Multicentre Case Control Study.
Tedjawirja VN, Bulder RMA, Lindeman JHN, Hamming JF, van Dieren S, Balm R, Koelemay MJW, Study Group Collaborators
Objective: The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for 90 day death after elective open surgical repair (OSR) of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) in women. Methods: This was a multicentre case control study. The nationwide Dutch Surgical Aneurysm Audit registry (2013-2019) was solely used to identify women who underwent elective OSR as eligible patients. Data for this study were subsequently collected from the patients' medical files. Women with AAA were included and those who d...

Filamin A pre-mRNA editing modulates vascularization and tumor growth.
Jain M, Manjaly G, Maly K, de Vries MR, Janisiw M, König L, Nossent AY, Jantsch MF
Adenosine to inosine (A to I) editing is mediated by adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADAR) enzymes. Inosines are interpreted as guanosines by the translational machinery. Consequently, A to I editing in mRNAs can lead to their recoding and the formation of proteins not encoded in the genome. Filamin A is an actin-crosslinking protein. A to I editing in the filamin pre-mRNA leads to the exchange of a glutamine to an arginine in a highly interactive domain of the protein. However, the conseque...

Prophylactic Impella CP versus VA-ECMO in Patients Undergoing Complex High-Risk Indicated PCI.
van den Buijs DMF, Wilgenhof A, Knaapen P, Zivelonghi C, Meijers T, Vermeersch P, Arslan F, Verouden N, Nap A, Sjauw K, van den Brink FS
Objectives: To compare two different forms of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in patients with complex high-risk indicated PCI (CHIP): the Impella CP system and veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). Background: To prevent hemodynamic instability in CHIP, various MCS systems are available. However, comparable data on different forms of MCS are not at hand. Methods: In this multicenter observational study, we retrospectively evaluated all CHIP procedures with the suppor...

Phosphorylcholine Monoclonal Antibody Therapy Decreases Intraplaque Angiogenesis and Intraplaque Hemorrhage in Murine Vein Grafts.
Baganha F, Sluiter TJ, de Jong RCM, van Alst LA, Peters HAB, Jukema JW, Delibegovic M, Pettersson K, Quax PHA, de Vries MR
Phosphorylcholine (PC) is one of the main oxLDL epitopes playing a central role in atherosclerosis, due to its atherogenic and proinflammatory effects. PC can be cleared by natural IgM antibodies and low levels of these antibodies have been associated with human vein graft (VG) failure. Although PC antibodies are recognized for their anti-inflammatory properties, their effect on intraplaque angiogenesis (IPA) and intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH)-interdependent processes contributing to plaque ruptur...

Right Ventricular Reverse Remodeling After Tricuspid Valve Surgery for Significant Tricuspid Regurgitation.
Galloo X, Meucci MC, Stassen J, Dietz MF, Prihadi EA, van der Bijl P, Ajmone Marsan N, Braun J, Bax JJ, Delgado V
Background: Changes in right ventricular (RV) dimensions and function after tricuspid valve (TV) surgery and their association with long-term outcomes remain largely unexplored. The current study evaluated RV reverse remodeling, based on changes in RV dimensions and function, after TV surgery for significant (moderate or severe) tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and their association with outcome. Methods: A total of 121 patients (mean age 63 ± 12 years, 47% males) with significant TR treated with TV...

Delayed biventricular repair of interrupted aortic arch with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction in 22q11.2 deletion syndrome: a case report.
Van den Eynde J, van der Palen RLF, Bökenkamp R, Hazekamp MG
In patients with critical left ventricular outflow tract obstruction but adequately sized ventricles, the treatment of choice is biventricular repair. Several options have been proposed, including neonatal Yasui or Ross-Konno operation. However, each of these procedures carries a high mortality risk, especially in syndromic neonates. Here, we report the case of a patient with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and a diagnosis of interrupted aortic arch type B2, ventricular septal defect and left ventricu...

Robotic Mitral Valve Surgery.
Palmen M, Tomšič A, Braun J, Oudeman MAP, Shahin GMM, Klautz RJM
Growing interest in minimalizing surgical trauma during heart procedures stimulated the development of robotic mitral valve surgery in the late 1990s. Initially, the new technology was slowly adopted in clinical practice. However, following encouraging results by teams that adopted robotic heart surgery early on, a growing interest in implementation of robotic mitral valve surgery has emerged. Of importance are the technical developments and possibilities that accompany robotic surgery. Robotic...

Prevalence and Prognostic Implications of Moderate or Severe Mitral Regurgitation in Patients with Bicuspid Aortic Valve.
Butcher SC, Prevedello F, Fortuni F, Kong WKF, Singh GK, Ng ACT, Perry R, Poh KK, Almeida AG, González A, Shen M, Yeo TC, Shanks M, Popescu BA, Gay LG, Fijałkowski M, Liang M, Tay E, Ajmone Marsan N, Selvanayagam JB, Pinto F, Zamorano JL, Pibarot P, Evangelista A, Bax JJ, Delgado V
Background: Significant (moderate or greater) mitral regurgitation (MR) could augment the hemodynamic effects of aortic valvular disease in patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), imposing a greater hemodynamic burden on the left ventricle and atrium, possibly culminating in a faster onset of left ventricular dilation and/or symptoms. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and prognostic implications of significant MR in patients with BAV. Methods: In this large, multicenter, i...

Aims: Evolving evidence suggests that endothelial wall shear stress (ESS) plays a crucial role in the rupture and progression of coronary plaques by triggering biological signalling pathways. We aimed to investigate the patterns of ESS across coronary lesions from non-invasive imaging with coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA), and to define plaque-associated ESS values in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods and results: Symptomatic patients with CAD who underwent a cl...
