Characterization of Ascending Aortic Flow in Patients With Degenerative Aneurysms: A 4D Flow Magnetic Resonance Study.
Ramaekers MJFG, Adriaans BP, Juffermans JF, van Assen HC, Bekkers SCAM, Scholte AJHA, Kenjeres S, Lamb HJ, Wildberger JE, Westenberg JJM, Schalla S
Objectives: Degenerative thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) patients are known to be at risk of life-threatening acute aortic events. Guidelines recommend preemptive surgery at diameters of greater than 55 mm, although many patients with small aneurysms show only mild growth rates and more than half of complications occur in aneurysms below this threshold. Thus, assessment of hemodynamics using 4-dimensional flow magnetic resonance has been of interest to obtain more insights in aneurysm development...

Myocardial calcification is associated with endocardial ablation failure of post-myocardial infarction ventricular tachycardia.
de Riva M, Naruse Y, Ebert M, Watanabe M, Scholte AJ, Wijnmaalen AP, Trines SA, Schalij MJ, Montero-Cabezas JM, Zeppenfeld K
Aims: In patients with post-myocardial infarction (post-MI) ventricular tachycardia (VT), the presence of myocardial calcification (MC) may prevent heating of a subepicardial VT substrate contributing to endocardial ablation failure. The aims of this study were to assess the prevalence of MC in patients with post-MI VT and evaluate the impact of MC on outcome after endocardial ablation. Methods and results: In 158 patients, the presence of MC was retrospectively assessed on fluoroscopy recording...

Coronary Computed Tomographic Angiography for Complete Assessment of Coronary Artery Disease: JACC State-of-the-Art Review.
Serruys PW, Hara H, Garg S, Kawashima H, Nørgaard BL, Dweck MR, Bax JJ, Knuuti J, Nieman K, Leipsic JA, Mushtaq S, Andreini D, Onuma Y
Coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) has shown great technological improvements over the last 2 decades. High accuracy of CTA in detecting significant coronary stenosis has promoted CTA as a substitute for conventional invasive coronary angiography in patients with suspected coronary artery disease. In patients with coronary stenosis, CTA-derived physiological assessment is surrogate for intracoronary pressure and velocity wires, and renders possible decision-making about revasculariza...

A modified surgical technique for aortopexy in tracheobronchomalacia.
Dolmaci OB, Fockens MM, Oomen MW, van Woensel JB, Hoekstra CEL, Koolbergen DR
Objectives: Tracheobronchomalacia (TBM) is characterized by collapse of trachea, bronchi or both, leading to dyspnoea, expiratory stridor, coughing or recurrent airway infections. Surgical treatment with aortopexy is warranted for severe TBM. We describe a modified aortopexy technique with aortic wall strap sutures that evenly distributes the traction force over the full width of the aortic arch. The aim of this study was to determine the outcomes of this modified anterior aortopexy technique. M...

Prevalence and Long-term Outcomes of Patients with Coronary Artery Ectasia Presenting with Acute Myocardial Infarction.
Wang X, Montero-Cabezas JM, Mandurino-Mirizzi A, Hirasawa K, Ajmone Marsan N, Knuuti J, Bax JJ, Delgado V
Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is described in 5% of patients undergoing coronary angiography. Previous studies have shown controversial results regarding the prognostic impact of CAE. The prevalence and prognostic value of CAE in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remain unknown. In 4788 patients presenting with AMI referred for coronary angiography the presence of CAE (defined as dilation of a coronary segment with a diameter ≥1.5 times of the adjacent normal segment) was confirmed...

Luo J, Hashimoto Y, Martens LG, Meulmeester FL, Ashrafi N, Mook-Kanamori DO, Rosendaal FR, Jukema JW, van Dijk KW, Mills K, le Cessie S, Noordam R, van Heemst D
Vitamin E (α-tocopherol [α-TOH]) is transported in lipoprotein particles in blood, but little is known about the transportation of its oxidized metabolites. In the Netherlands Epidemiology of Obesity Study, we aimed to investigate the associations of 147 circulating metabolomic measures obtained through targeted nuclear magnetic resonance with serum α-TOH and its urinary enzymatic (α-CEHC) and oxidized (α-TLHQ) metabolites from 24-h urine quantified by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spec...

Peritoneal dialysis improves quality-of-life in a left ventricular assist device destination therapy patient-a case report.
Koppel CJ, Jonker JT, Michels WM, Beeres SLMA
Background: Progressive renal insufficiency is frequent in heart failure patients with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD). The optimal strategy for long-term dialysis in LVAD patients and its effect on quality-of-life in these patients remain to be determined. Case summary: Our 55-year-old patient with pre-existing renal insufficiency received an LVAD as destination therapy because of advanced ischaemic heart failure. Six years after implantation, he developed end-stage renal disease for wh...

Objectives: Current diagnostic modalities for patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) mainly focus on the macrovascular level. For assessment of tissue perfusion, near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging using indocyanine green (ICG) seems promising. In this prospective cohort study, ICG NIR fluorescence imaging was performed pre- and post-revascularization to assess changes in foot perfusion. Methods: ICG NIR fluorescence imaging was performed in 36 patients with PAD pre- and post-interve...

Montero-Cabezas JM, Córdoba-Soriano JG, Díez-Delhoyo F, Abellán-Huerta J, Girgis H, Rama-Merchán JC, García-Blas S, van Rees JB, van Ramshorst J, Jurado-Román A
Data regarding angiographic characteristics, clinical profile, and inhospital outcomes of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) referred for coronary angiography (CAG) are scarce. This is an observational study analyzing confirmed patients with COVID-19 referred for CAG from 10 European centers. We included 57 patients (mean age: 66 ± 15 years, 82% male) , of whom 18% had previous myocardial infarction (MI) and 29% had renal insufficiency and chronic pulmonary disease. ST-segment ele...

Analysis of Outcomes After Endovascular Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair in Patients With Abnormal Findings on the First Postoperative Computed Tomography Angiography.
Geraedts ACM, Mulay S, van Dieren S, Koelemay MJW, Balm R, ODYSSEUS Study Group*
Purpose: Lifelong follow-up after endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) is recommended due to a continued risk of complications, especially if the first postoperative imaging shows abnormal findings. We studied the long-term outcomes in patients with abnormalities on the first postoperative computed tomography angiography (CTA) following EVAR. Materials and methods: This is a retrospective study of all consecutive patients who underwent elective EVAR for nonruptured abdominal aort...

It has been more than two decades since the first neuromorphic Dynamic Vision Sensor (DVS) sensor was invented, and many subsequent prototypes have been built with a wide spectrum of applications in mind. Competing against state-of-the-art neural networks in terms of accuracy is difficult, although there are clear opportunities to outperform conventional approaches in terms of power consumption and processing speed. As neuromorphic sensors generate sparse data at the focal plane itself, they are...
