Blok JJ, de Boer JD, Putter H, Rogiers X, Guba MO, Strassburg CP, Samuel U, van Hoek B, Hamming JF, Braat AE, Eurotransplant Liver Intestine Advisory Committee
Apart from donor and recipient risk factors, the effect of center-related factors has significant impact on graft survival after liver transplantation (LT). To investigate this effect in Eurotransplant, a retrospective database analysis was performed, including all LT's in adult recipients (≥18 years) in the Eurotransplant region from 1.1.2007 until 31.12.2013. Additionally, a survey was sent out to all transplant centers requesting information on surgeons' experience and exposure. In...

Disentangling the effect of illness perceptions on health status in people with type 2 diabetes after an acute coronary event.
Vos RC, Kasteleyn MJ, Heijmans MJ, de Leeuw E, Schellevis FG, Rijken M, Rutten GE, Diacourse study group
Background: Chronically ill patients such as people with type 2 diabetes develop perceptions of their illness, which will influence their coping behaviour. Perceptions are formed once a health threat has been recognised. Many people with type 2 diabetes suffer from multimorbidity, for example the combination with cardiovascular disease. Perceptions of one illness may influence perceptions of the other condition. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the effect of an intervention in type 2...

Accurate determination of the CYP2D6 (*1/*4)xN genotype by quantitative PCR.
Pondman KM, van Schaik RHN, van der Weide J
Background: CYP2D6 is responsible for the metabolism of approximately 25% of all drugs. The expression of cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) is influenced by a combination of factors including polymorphisms in the CYP2D6 gene. Analysis of the CYP2D6 genotype is used to personalize the medication to a patient's metabolism. Although many genotypes can be determined using standard genotype analysis, in some cases, an incomplete analysis is performed. The CYP2D6 genotype *1/*4 often occurs in combina...

Nikaidoh vs Réparation à l'Etage Ventriculaire vs Rastelli.
Hazekamp MG, Nevvazhay T, Sojak V
This review describes the different surgical options for transposition of the great arteries, ventricular septal defect (VSD), and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. When the pulmonary valve can be used, an arterial switch operation with VSD closure and resection of pulmonary stenosis may be possible. This is not the scope of our review: we focus on the Rastelli, REV (Réparation à l'Etage Ventriculaire), and Nikaidoh techniques, and we also describe the "en bloc rotation"...

Reduce bladder cancer recurrence in patients treated for upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma: The REBACARE-trial.
van Doeveren T, van Leeuwen PJ, Aben KKH, van der Aa M, Barendrecht M, Boevé ER, Cornel EB, van der Heijden AG, Hendricksen K, Hirdes W, Kooistra A, Kroon B, Leliveld AM, Meijer RP, van Melick H, Merks B, de Reijke TM, de Vries P, Wymenga LFA, Wijsman B, Boormans JL
Background: Following radical nephro-ureterectomy for urothelial carcinoma of the upper urinary tract (UUT), the reported bladder recurrence rate of urothelial carcinoma is 22-47%. A single intravesical instillation of chemotherapy within 10 days following nephro-ureterectomy has the potential to decrease the risk of a bladder recurrence significantly. Despite recommendation by the European Association of Urology guideline to administer a single instillation postoperatively, the compliance rate...

Multicentre randomized clinical trial of the effect of chewing gum after abdominal surgery.
de Leede EM, van Leersum NJ, Kroon HM, van Weel V, van der Sijp JRM, Bonsing BA, Kauwgomstudie Consortium
Background: Postoperative ileus is a common complication of abdominal surgery, leading to patient discomfort, morbidity and prolonged postoperative length of hospital stay (LOS). Previous studies suggested that chewing gum stimulates bowel function after abdominal surgery, but were underpowered to evaluate its effect on LOS and did not include enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS)-based perioperative care. This study evaluated whether chewing gum after elective abdominal surgery reduces LOS and...

Detection of a rare CYP3A4 variant in a transplant patient characterized by a tacrolimus poor metabolizer phenotype.
Lloberas N, Hesselink DA, van Schaik RH, Grinyò JM, Colom H, Gelder TV, Elens L
A validated CYP3A genotype classification system allows clustering patients into poor, intermediate and extensive metabolizer phenotypes. However, substantial overlap exists between the clusters. A rare CYP3A4 allele, named CYP3A4*20 (rs67666821), has been specifically described in the Spanish population. The authors investigated the relevance of CYP3A4*20 testing to see if the above-mentioned metabolic CYP3A classification system can be improved. In a cohort of 204 kidney transplant recipients,...

Genome-wide association mapping of the architecture of susceptibility to the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Warmerdam S, Sterken MG, van Schaik C, Oortwijn MEP, Sukarta OCA, Lozano-Torres JL, Dicke M, Helder J, Kammenga JE, Goverse A, Bakker J, Smant G
Susceptibility to the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita in plants is thought to be a complex trait based on multiple genes involved in cell differentiation, growth and defence. Previous genetic analyses of susceptibility to M. incognita have mainly focused on segregating dominant resistance genes in crops. It is not known if plants harbour significant genetic variation in susceptibility to M. incognita independent of dominant resistance. To study the genetic architecture of susceptibility...

A pneumatic Bionic Voice prosthesis-Pre-clinical trials of controlling the voice onset and offset.
Ahmadi F, Noorian F, Novakovic D, van Schaik A
Despite emergent progress in many fields of bionics, a functional Bionic Voice prosthesis for laryngectomy patients (larynx amputees) has not yet been achieved, leading to a lifetime of vocal disability for these patients. This study introduces a novel framework of Pneumatic Bionic Voice Prostheses as an electronic adaptation of the Pneumatic Artificial Larynx (PAL) device. The PAL is a non-invasive mechanical voice source, driven exclusively by respiration with an exceptionally high voice quali...

High Prevalence of Intra-Familial Co-colonization by Extended-Spectrum Cephalosporin Resistant <i>Enterobacteriaceae</i> in Preschool Children and Their Parents in Dutch Households.
Liakopoulos A, van den Bunt G, Geurts Y, Bootsma MCJ, Toleman M, Ceccarelli D, van Pelt W, Mevius DJ
Extended-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant (ESCR) Enterobacteriaceae pose a serious infection control challenge for public health. The emergence of the ESCR phenotype is mostly facilitated by plasmid-mediated horizontal extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and AmpC gene transfer within Enterobacteriaceae. Current data regarding the plasmid contribution to this emergence within the Dutch human population is limited. Hence, the aim of this study was to gain insight into the role of plasmids in th...

Autologous iPSC-Based Vaccines Elicit Anti-tumor Responses In Vivo.
Kooreman NG, Kim Y, de Almeida PE, Termglinchan V, Diecke S, Shao NY, Wei TT, Yi H, Dey D, Nelakanti R, Brouwer TP, Paik DT, Sagiv-Barfi I, Han A, Quax PHA, Hamming JF, Levy R, Davis MM, Wu JC
Cancer cells and embryonic tissues share a number of cellular and molecular properties, suggesting that induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) may be harnessed to elicit anti-tumor responses in cancer vaccines. RNA sequencing revealed that human and murine iPSCs express tumor-associated antigens, and we show here a proof of principle for using irradiated iPSCs in autologous anti-tumor vaccines. In a prophylactic setting, iPSC vaccines prevent tumor growth in syngeneic murine breast cancer, mesot...

Assessment of left ventricular dyssynchrony by three-dimensional echocardiography: Prognostic value in patients undergoing cardiac resynchronization therapy.
Höke U, Bax JJ, Delgado V, Ajmone Marsan N
Background: Systolic dyssynchrony index (SDI) using three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) was shown to be a reliable measure of left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony. However, the prognostic value of SDI on long-term outcomes after cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) remains unknown. Methods and results: A total of 414 patients (mean age 67 ± 10 years, 60% ischemic etiology) with 3DE evaluation before CRT implantation were included. SDI was evaluated as continuous value and in quartiles. The...
