The role of long-term mechanical circulatory support in patients with advanced heart failure.
Felix SEA, de Jonge N, Caliskan K, Birim O, Damman K, Kuijpers M, Tops LF, Palmen M, Ramjankhan FZ
In patients with end-stage heart failure, advanced therapies such as heart transplantation and long-term mechanical circulatory support (MCS) with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) have to be considered. LVADs can be implanted as a bridge to transplantation or as an alternative to heart transplantation: destination therapy. In the Netherlands, long-term LVAD therapy is gaining importance as a result of increased prevalence of heart failure together with a low number of heart transplantatio...

van Roon AM, Mercat M, van Schaik G, Nielen M, Graham DA, More SJ, Guelbenzu-Gonzalo M, Fourichon C, Madouasse A, Santman-Berends IMGA
Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is endemic in many parts of the world, and multiple countries have implemented surveillance activities for disease control or eradication. In such control programs, the disease-free status can be compromised by factors that pose risks for introduction or persistence of the virus. The aim of the present study was to gain a comprehensive overview of possible risk factors for BVDV infection in cattle herds in Europe and to assess their importance. Papers that cons...

Presentation outside office hours does not negatively influence treatment times for reperfusion therapy for acute ischemic stroke.
Groot AE, de Bruin H, Nguyen TTM, Kappelhof M, de Beer F, Visser MC, Zwetsloot CP, Halkes PHA, de Kruijk J, van der Meulen WDM, van der Ree TC, Kwa VIH, van Schaik SM, Hani L, van den Berg R, Sprengers MES, Roosendaal SD, Emmer BJ, Nederkoorn PJ, Majoie CBLM, Roos YBWEM, Coutinho JM
Background: Treatment outside office hours has been associated with increased workflow times for intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Limited data suggest that this "off-hours effect" also exists for endovascular treatment (EVT). We investigated this phenomenon in a well-organized acute stroke care region in the Netherlands. Methods: Retrospective, observational cohort study of consecutive patients with AIS who received reperfusion therapy in the Greater Amste...

Spontaneous (minimal) ritual in non-human great apes?
Tennie C, van Schaik CP
The potential for rituals in non-human great apes (apes) is an understudied topic. We derive a minimal definition of ritual and then examine the currently available evidence for it in untrained and non-enculturated apes. First, we examine whether such apes show evidence for the two main components of our minimal definition of ritual: symbolism and copying. Second, we examine if there are actual cases already identifiable today that may fit all aspects of our minimal definition of ritual-or wheth...

Molecular imaging of the urokinase plasminogen activator receptor: opportunities beyond cancer.
Baart VM, Houvast RD, de Geus-Oei LF, Quax PHA, Kuppen PJK, Vahrmeijer AL, Sier CFM
The urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) plays a multifaceted role in almost any process where migration of cells and tissue-remodeling is involved such as inflammation, but also in diseases as arthritis and cancer. Normally, uPAR is absent in healthy tissues. By its carefully orchestrated interaction with the protease urokinase plasminogen activator and its inhibitor (plasminogen activator inhibitor-1), uPAR localizes a cascade of proteolytic activities, enabling (patho)physiologic c...

When ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny: Fixed neurodevelopmental sequence of manipulative skills among primates.
Heldstab SA, Isler K, Schuppli C, van Schaik CP
Neural development is highly conserved across distantly related species of different brain sizes. Here, we show that the development of manipulative complexity is equally cumulative across 36 primate species and also that its ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny. Furthermore, larger-brained species reach their adult skill levels later than smaller-brained ones, largely because they start later with the simplest techniques. These findings demonstrate that these motor behaviors are not modular and tha...
