The association of kidney function and cognitive decline in older patients at risk of cardiovascular disease: a longitudinal data analysis.
Zijlstra LE, Trompet S, Mooijaart SP, van Buren M, Sattar N, Stott DJ, Jukema JW
Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been identified as a significant direct marker for cognitive decline, but controversy exists regarding the magnitude of the association of kidney function with cognitive decline across the different CKD stages. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the association of kidney function with cognitive decline in older patients at high risk of cardiovascular disease, using data from the PROspective Study of Pravastatin in the Elderly at Risk...

Exercise haemodynamics after restrictive mitral annuloplasty for functional mitral regurgitation.
Petrus AHJ, Tops LF, Holman ER, Marsan NA, Bax JJ, Schalij MJ, Steendijk P, Klautz RJM, Braun J
Aims: Restrictive mitral annuloplasty (RMA) can provide a durable solution for functional mitral regurgitation (MR), but might result in obstruction to antegrade mitral flow. Aim of this study was to assess the magnitude of change in mitral valve area (MVA) during exercise after RMA, to relate the change in MVA to left ventricular (LV) geometry and function, and to assess its haemodynamic and clinical impact. Methods and results: Bicycle exercise echocardiography was performed in 32 patients aft...

Ventricular arrhythmias are an important cause of morbidity and mortality and come in a variety of forms, from single premature ventricular complexes to sustained ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation. Rapid developments have taken place over the past decade in our understanding of these arrhythmias and in our ability to diagnose and treat them. The field of catheter ablation has progressed with the development of new methods and tools, and with the publication of large clinical trials. There...

Indications for an early invasive strategy in NSTE-ACS patients.
Zwart B, Ten Berg JM, van 't Hof AW, Tonino PAL, Appelman Y, Liem AH, Arslan F, Waltenberger J, Jukema JW, de Winter RJ, Damman P
An early invasive strategy in patients who have acute coronary syndrome without ST-elevation (NSTE-ACS) can improve clinical outcome in high-risk subgroups. According to the current guidelines of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC), the majority of NSTE-ACS patients are classified as "high-risk". We propose to prioritise patients with a global registry of acute coronary events (GRACE) risk score >140 over patients with isolated troponin rise or electrocardiographic changes and...

Background Rapid coronary plaque progression (RPP) is associated with incident cardiovascular events. To date, no method exists for the identification of individuals at risk of RPP at a single point in time. This study integrated coronary computed tomography angiography-determined qualitative and quantitative plaque features within a machine learning (ML) framework to determine its performance for predicting RPP. Methods and Results Qualitative and quantitative coronary computed tomography angio...

<b>Successful percutaneous occlusion of a large left circumflex coronary artery fistula draining into the coronary sinus using a</b> ventricular septal defect <b>occluder: a case report</b>.
Egorova AD, Ewert P, Hadamitzky M, Eicken A
Background: Coronary artery fistula (CAF) is a congenital anomaly of the coronaries that can lead to significant intracardiac shunting and myocardial ischaemia. Case summary: We describe the case of a 15-year-old male with an incidentally documented precordial cardiac murmur. An evidently dilated coronary sinus (CS) on transthoracic echocardiography prompted further investigation. A computed tomography (CT) revealed the presence of a large CAF from the left circumflex coronary artery to the CS....

Talar beak-induced intermittent ischemia of the foot.
Rotmans JI, van der Wal RJP, Schepers A
A 44-year-old man presented with symptoms of intermittent ischemia of the right foot. Computed tomography scanning of the right foot revealed a talar beak that had a close anatomic relation with the dorsalis pedis artery. Duplex ultrasound performed during a symptomatic episode confirmed ischemia induced by severe vasospasm of the dorsalis pedis artery that normalized 30 minutes later. The talar beak was removed by open surgery that resulted in complete resolution of the patient's symptoms....

Coronary anomalies in tetralogy of Fallot - A meta-analysis.
Koppel CJ, Jongbloed MRM, Kiès P, Hazekamp MG, Mertens BJA, Schalij MJ, Vliegen HW
Background: An anomalous coronary artery is reported in 2% to 23% of patients with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). Knowledge of coronary anatomy prior to corrective surgery is vital to avoid damage to vessels crossing the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT). A meta-analysis on the prevalence of anomalous coronary arteries in TOF is lacking to date. Here, an overview of coronary anomalies in TOF is provided and implications for patient management are discussed. Methods: PubMed, Embase and Web of Sc...

Left ventricular remodelling after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction: sex differences and prognosis.
van der Bijl P, Abou R, Goedemans L, Gersh BJ, Holmes DR, Ajmone Marsan N, Delgado V, Bax JJ
Aims: Left ventricular (LV) remodelling after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) worsens outcome. The effect of sex on LV post-infarct remodelling is unknown. We therefore investigated the sex distribution and long-term prognosis of LV post-infarct remodelling after STEMI in the contemporary era of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and optimal pharmacotherapy. Methods and results: Data were obtained from an ongoing primary PCI STEMI registry. LV remodelling was def...

Monitoring forced degradation of drugs using silica coated AgNPs with surface-enhanced Raman scattering.
Yilmaz H, Cobandede Z, Yilmaz D, Cinkilic A, Culha M, Demiralay EC
Potential degradation products (DPs), even in small concentrations, can cause changes in pharmacological and toxicological properties of a drug with a significant impact on product quality and safety. Thus, their stability and understanding of possible degradation mechanisms have a significant importance. Although liquid chromatography is the conventional technique used for forced degradation studies with excellent accuracy and reproducibility, the main disadvantages of the technique are being e...

Resistance of the respiratory system measured with forced oscillation technique (FOT) correlates with bronchial thermoplasty response.
Goorsenberg AWM, d'Hooghe JNS, Slats AM, van den Aardweg JG, Annema JT, Bonta PI
Background: Bronchial Thermoplasty (BT) is an endoscopic treatment for severe asthma using radiofrequency energy to target airway remodeling including smooth muscle. The correlation of pulmonary function tests and BT response are largely unknown. Forced Oscillation Technique (FOT) is an effort-independent technique to assess respiratory resistance (Rrs) by using pressure oscillations including small airways. Aim: To investigate the effect of BT on pulmonary function, assessed by spirometry, body...

Aorto-ventricular tunnel (AoVT), a rare congenital anomaly, is a channel originating in the ascending aorta just above the sinotubular junction and leading to the cavity of the left ventricle (AoLVT), or, rarely, the right (AoRVT). This study reviews our collective 30-year experience with the surgical treatment of AoVT. Data were submitted by 15 participating centers on 42 patients who underwent correction of AoVT between 1987 and 2018. Of these, 36 had AoLVT, and 6 AoRVT. The tunnel originated...
