Background: The implications of different adiposity measures on cardiovascular disease etiology remain unclear. In this article, we quantify and contrast causal associations of central adiposity (waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for body mass index [WHRadjBMI]) and general adiposity (body mass index [BMI]) with cardiometabolic disease. Methods: Ninety-seven independent single-nucleotide polymorphisms for BMI and 49 single-nucleotide polymorphisms for WHRadjBMI were used to conduct Mendelian randomiza... Abstract

The American journal of cardiology, Volume 120, Issue 3, 11 2 2017, Pages 500-504 Prognostic Implications of Left Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain in Predialysis and Dialysis Patients. Hensen LCR, Goossens K, Delgado V, Rotmans JI, Jukema JW, Bax JJ
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a worldwide growing epidemic associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) is a measure of LV systolic function associated with prognosis in the general population. However, little is known about the association between LV GLS and survival in patients with CKD. The aim of the present study was to investigate the prognostic implications of LV GLS in predialysis and dialysis patien... Abstract

Journal of magnetic resonance imaging : JMRI, Volume 47, Issue 1, 4 1 2017, Pages 272-281 Comparison of fast acquisition strategies in whole-heart four-dimensional flow cardiac MR: Two-center, 1.5 Tesla, phantom and in vivo validation study. Garg P, Westenberg JJM, van den Boogaard PJ, Swoboda PP, Aziz R, Foley JRJ, Fent GJ, Tyl FGJ, Coratella L, ElBaz MSM, van der Geest RJ, Higgins DM, Greenwood JP, Plein S
Purpose: To validate three widely-used acceleration methods in four-dimensional (4D) flow cardiac MR; segmented 4D-spoiled-gradient-echo (4D-SPGR), 4D-echo-planar-imaging (4D-EPI), and 4D-k-t Broad-use Linear Acquisition Speed-up Technique (4D-k-t BLAST). Materials and methods: Acceleration methods were investigated in static/pulsatile phantoms and 25 volunteers on 1.5 Tesla MR systems. In phantoms, flow was quantified by 2D phase-contrast (PC), the three 4D flow methods and the time-beaker flow... Abstract

Cardiovascular and interventional radiology, Volume 40, Issue 10, 3 1 2017, Pages 1641-1644 Aortic Aneurysm Rupture After Urokinase Treatment for Acute Limb Ischemia in Two Patients After EVAR. Sudiono DR, Hoencamp R, Ottevanger J, Eefting D, van der Linden E
Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is first-choice treatment for many patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms. Complications unique to endovascular treatment include endoleak and endotension, which can eventually lead to rupture. We present two cases of late aortic rupture after EVAR, where both patients had recent preceding catheter-directed thrombolysis with urokinase for acute limb ischemia. These cases suggest a relation between thrombolytic therapy and aortic rupture after EVAR, and we sh... Abstract

Background: The cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibitor evacetrapib substantially raises the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol level, reduces the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol level, and enhances cellular cholesterol efflux capacity. We sought to determine the effect of evacetrapib on major adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients with high-risk vascular disease. Methods: In a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 trial, we enrolled 12,092... Abstract

Asthma-chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) overlap syndrome (ACOS) seems an important clinical phenotype, but multiple definitions have been proposed. This study's objectives were to assess the effect of different ACOS definitions on prevalence, patient characteristics and exacerbations.5675 individuals aged 45-65 years, with 846 asthma/COPD patients, were included in the Netherlands Epidemiology of Obesity study between 2008 and 2012, and followed-up for a median of 1.8 years.

ASAIO journal (American Society for Artificial Internal Organs : 1992), Volume 63, Issue 3, 1 1 2017, Pages 266-272 Pump Speed Optimization in Stable Patients with a Left Ventricular Assist Device. Couperus LE, Delgado V, Khidir MJH, Vester MPM, Palmen M, Fiocco M, Holman ER, Tops LF, Klautz RJM, Verwey HF, Schalij MJ, Beeres SLMA
Optimal left ventricular assist device (LVAD) functioning and preservation of right ventricular (RV) function are major survival determinants in destination therapy (DT)-LVAD recipients. Currently, the indication for routine pump speed optimization in stable patients and its effect on RV function at follow-up remain underexplored. Hemodynamically stable patients (N = 17, age 61 [interquartile range {IQR} 51-66] years; 13 [77%] male) underwent a routine speed ramp test. Echocardiographic images w... Abstract

Aortic stenosis is 1 of the most common heart valve diseases among adults. When symptoms develop, prognosis is poor, and current guidelines recommend prompt aortic valve replacement. Depending of the severity of the aortic stenosis and the presence of concomitant heart disease and medical comorbidities, stress testing represents a reasonable strategy to help better risk stratify asymptomatic patients. The present report provides a comprehensive review of the current available data on stress test... Abstract

Background: Left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction and moderate aortic stenosis (AS) are more frequent with advancing age and often coexist. Afterload reduction is the mainstay of pharmacological treatment of heart failure (HF). Aortic valve replacement (AVR) is only formally indicated for symptomatic severe AS. Objectives: This study sought to determine the clinical outcome of patients with concomitant moderate AS and LV systolic dysfunction. Methods: Echocardiographic and clinical data of... Abstract

Reddy VY, Miller MA, Neuzil P, Søgaard P, Butter C, Seifert M, Delnoy PP, van Erven L, Schalji M, Boersma LVA, Riahi S
Background: A total of 30% to 40% of patients with congestive heart failure eligible for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) either do not respond to conventional CRT or remain untreated due to an inability or impediment to coronary sinus (CS) lead implantation. The WiSE-CRT system (EBR Systems, Sunnyvale, California) was developed to address this at-risk patient population by performing biventricular pacing via a wireless left ventricular (LV) endocardial pacing electrode. Objectives: The S... Abstract

Introduction Smartphone-compatible blood pressure devices may be a good alternative to enable self-measurement of blood pressure by patients. Furthermore, automatic transferral of data to the hospital allows for remote monitoring. To our knowledge, no study has compared four of these smartphone-compatible blood pressure devices.

Hermans MPJ, van der Velden D, Montero Cabezas JM, Putter H, Huizinga TWJ, Kuiper J, Toes REM, Schalij MJ, Wouter Jukema J, van der Woude D
Background: Cardiovascular (CV) mortality is higher in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), in particular when anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) are present. Recently, ACPA have also been described in a cohort of patients without RA, but with coronary artery disease (CAD). It is however unknown if ACPA can consistently be found in patients with CAD, and if ACPA are associated with mortality in these patients. The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between ACPA an... Abstract
