Determinants of extended door-to-needle time in acute ischemic stroke and its influence on in-hospital mortality: results of a nationwide Dutch clinical audit.
Kuhrij LS, Marang-van de Mheen PJ, van den Berg-Vos RM, de Leeuw FE, Nederkoorn PJ, Dutch Acute Stroke Audit consortium
Background: Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) plays a prominent role in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). The sooner IVT is administered, the higher the odds of a good outcome. Therefore, registering the in-hospital time to treatment with IVT, i.e. the door-to-needle time (DNT), is a powerful way to measure quality improvement. The aim of this study was to identify determinants that are associated with extended DNT. Methods: Patients receiving IVT in 2015 and 2016 registered in the Dutc...

CRISPR-Cas9-mediated genome editing in vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium.
de Maat V, Stege PB, Dedden M, Hamer M, van Pijkeren JP, Willems RJL, van Schaik W
The Gram-positive bacterium Enterococcus faecium is becoming increasingly prevalent as a cause of hospital-acquired, antibiotic-resistant infections. A fundamental part of research into E. faecium biology relies on the ability to generate targeted mutants but this process is currently labour-intensive and time-consuming, taking 4 to 5 weeks per mutant. In this report, we describe a method relying on the high recombination rates of E. faecium and the application of the Clustered Regularly Intersp...

Survival Bias in Mendelian Randomization Studies: A Threat to Causal Inference.
Smit RAJ, Trompet S, Dekkers OM, Jukema JW, le Cessie S
It has been argued that survival bias may distort results in Mendelian randomization studies in older populations. Through simulations of a simple causal structure we investigate the degree to which instrumental variable (IV)-estimators may become biased in the context of exposures that affect survival. We observed that selecting on survival decreased instrument strength and, for exposures with directionally concordant effects on survival (and outcome), introduced downward bias of the IV-estimat...
