Association between reduced heart rate variability components and supraventricular tachyarrhythmias in patients with a systemic right ventricle.
Zandstra T, Kiès P, Maan A, Man SC, Bootsma M, Vliegen H, Egorova A, Mertens B, Holman E, Schalij M, Jongbloed M
Background: Patients with a systemic right ventricle are prone to develop heart failure. Abnormal heart rate variability (HRV), a measure of autonomic dysfunction, is associated with morbidity and mortality in patients with left ventricular failure. The association between HRV and supraventricular arrhythmias (SVTs), which are associated with adverse events in this population, was assessed. Methods: 24-Hour Holter recordings of patients with a systemic right ventricle and healthy controls were a...

COPD and acute myocardial infarction.
Goedemans L, Bax JJ, Delgado V
COPD is strongly associated with cardiovascular disease, in particular acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Besides shared risk factors, COPD-related factors, such as systemic inflammation and hypoxia, underlie the pathophysiological interaction between COPD and AMI. The prevalence of COPD amongst AMI populations ranges from 7% to 30%, which is possibly even an underestimation due to underdiagnoses of COPD in general. Following the acute event, patients with COPD have an increased risk of mortalit...

Novel opportunities for NGS-based one health surveillance of foodborne viruses.
Desdouits M, de Graaf M, Strubbia S, Oude Munnink BB, Kroneman A, Le Guyader FS, Koopmans MPG
Foodborne viral infections rank among the top 5 causes of disease, with noroviruses and hepatitis A causing the greatest burden globally. Contamination of foods by infected food handlers or through environmental pollution are the main sources of foodborne illness, with a lesser role for consumption of products from infected animals. Viral partial genomic sequencing has been used for more than two decades to track foodborne outbreaks and whole genome or metagenomics next-generation-sequencing (NG...

Optical Coherence Tomography: Current Applications for the Assessment of Coronary Artery Disease and Guidance of Percutaneous Coronary Interventions.
Oosterveer TTM, van der Meer SM, Scherptong RWC, Jukema JW
Introduction: Coronary angiography (CAG) is the standard modality for assessment of coronary stenoses and intraprocedural guidance of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). However, the limitations of CAG are well recognized. Intracoronary imaging (ICI) can potentially overcome these limitations. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) are the main ICI techniques utilized in clinical practice. Aim: This narrative literature review addresses the current clinical...

The Role of Immunomodulation in Vein Graft Remodeling and Failure.
Baganha F, de Jong A, Jukema JW, Quax PHA, de Vries MR
Obstructive arterial disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the developed world. Venous bypass graft surgery is one of the most frequently used revascularization strategies despite its considerable short and long time failure rate. Due to vessel wall remodeling, inflammation, intimal hyperplasia, and accelerated atherosclerosis, vein grafts may (ultimately) fail to revascularize tissues downstream to occlusive atherosclerotic lesions. In the past decades, little has changed in th...

Patients with a Ruptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Are Better Informed in Hospitals with an "EVAR-preferred" Strategy: An Instrumental Variable Analysis of the Dutch Surgical Aneurysm Audit.
Karthaus EG, Lijftogt N, Vahl A, van der Willik EM, Amodio S, van Zwet EW, Hamming JF, Dutch Society for Vascular Surgery, the Steering Committee of the Dutch Surgical Aneurysm Audit and the Dutch Institute for Clinical Auditing
Background: While several observational studies suggested a lower postoperative mortality after minimal invasive endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) in patients with a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (RAAA) compared to conventional open surgical repair (OSR), landmark randomized controlled trials have not been able to prove the superiority of EVAR over OSR. Randomized controlled trials contain a selected, homogeneous population, influencing external validity. Observational studies are biased...

CaMKII activity contributes to homeometric autoregulation of the heart: A novel mechanism for the Anrep effect.
Reil JC, Reil GH, Kovács Á, Sequeira V, Waddingham MT, Lodi M, Herwig M, Ghaderi S, Kreusser MM, Papp Z, Voigt N, Dobrev D, Meyhöfer S, Langer HF, Maier LS, Linz D, Mügge A, Hohl M, Steendijk P, Hamdani N
Key points: The Anrep effect represents the alteration of left ventricular (LV) contractility to acutely enhanced afterload in a few seconds, thereby preserving stroke volume (SV) at constant preload. As a result of the missing preload stretch in our model, the Anrep effect differs from the slow force response and has a different mechanism. The Anrep effect demonstrated two different phases. First, the sudden increased afterload was momentary equilibrated by the enhanced LV contractility as a re...

Making a Lecture Stick: the Effect of Spaced Instruction on Knowledge Retention in Medical Education.
Timmer MCJ, Steendijk P, Arend SM, Versteeg M
Introduction: Poor knowledge retention is a persistent problem among medical students. This challenging issue may be addressed by optimizing frequently used instructional designs, such as lectures. Guided by neuroscientific literature, we designed a spaced learning lecture in which the educator repeats the to-be-learned information using short temporal intervals. We investigated if this modified instructional design could enhance students' retention. Materials and methods: Second-year medic...

Self-restoration of cardiac excitation rhythm by anti-arrhythmic ion channel gating.
Majumder R, De Coster T, Kudryashova N, Verkerk AO, Kazbanov IV, Ördög B, Harlaar N, Wilders R, de Vries AA, Ypey DL, Panfilov AV, Pijnappels DA
Homeostatic regulation protects organisms against hazardous physiological changes. However, such regulation is limited in certain organs and associated biological processes. For example, the heart fails to self-restore its normal electrical activity once disturbed, as with sustained arrhythmias. Here we present proof-of-concept of a biological self-restoring system that allows automatic detection and correction of such abnormal excitation rhythms. For the heart, its realization involves the inte...
