Oxygen Uptake Efficiency Slope is Strongly Correlated to VO<sub>2peak</sub> Long-Term After Arterial Switch Operation.
Terol Espinosa de Los Monteros C, Van der Palen RLF, Hazekamp MG, Rammeloo L, Jongbloed MRM, Blom NA, Harkel ADJT
After the arterial switch operation (ASO) for transposition of the great arteries (TGA), many patients have an impaired exercise tolerance. Exercise tolerance is determined with cardiopulmonary exercise testing by peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak). Unlike VO2peak, the oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES) does not require a maximal effort for interpretation. The value of OUES has not been assessed in a large group of patients after ASO. The purpose of this study was to determine OUES and VO2peak, eva...

Advanced <i>In Vitro</i> Modeling to Study the Paradox of Mechanically Induced Cardiac Fibrosis.
Bracco Gartner TCL, Stein JM, Muylaert DEP, Bouten CVC, Doevendans PA, Khademhosseini A, Suyker WJL, Sluijter JPG, Hjortnaes J
In heart failure, cardiac fibrosis is the result of an adverse remodeling process. Collagen is continuously synthesized in the myocardium in an ongoing attempt of the heart to repair itself. The resulting collagen depositions act counterproductively, causing diastolic dysfunction and disturbing electrical conduction. Efforts to treat cardiac fibrosis specifically have not been successful and the molecular etiology is only partially understood. The differentiation of quiescent cardiac fibroblasts...

Unexpected Diagnosis in an Adolescent With Bruises and Ecchymosis: Celiac Disease.
Er A, Çağlar A, Kuyum P, Akgül F, Ulusoy E, Çitlenbik H, Aksoy BY, Yilmaz D, Arslan N, Duman M
Abstract: Acquired coagulopathy is a rare but challenging diagnosis for pediatric emergency physicians. Although the coagulopathy usually presents with mild skin and mucosal hemorrhages, it also can lead to life-threatening events. Thus, accurate interpretation of hints obtained from a detailed history, physical examination, and laboratory findings is essential for the prompt diagnosis and management. This case demonstrates an uncommon cause of coagulopathy; celiac disease that presented with sp...

Quality assessment of robot assisted thoracic surgical resection of non-small cell lung cancer: nodal upstaging and mediastinal recurrence.
Shahin GM, Topal B, Pouwels S, Markou TL, Boon R, Stigt JA
Background: Robot assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) is the minimally invasive surgical technique of choice for treatment of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), at the Isala Hospital. The aim of this study is to compare clinical and pathological staging results and mediastinal recurrence after RATS for anatomical resections of lung cancer as surrogate markers for quality of mediastinal lymph node dissection (MLND).

Left ventricular myocardial work in the culprit vessel territory and impact on left ventricular remodelling in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction after primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
Lustosa RP, Fortuni F, van der Bijl P, Goedemans L, El Mahdiui M, Montero-Cabezas JM, Kostyukevich MV, Ajmone Marsan N, Bax JJ, Delgado V, Knuuti J
Aims: Adverse left ventricular (LV) remodelling after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is associated with poor outcome. Global and regional LV myocardial work (LVMW) derived from speckle tracking echocardiographic strain data in combination with non-invasive blood pressure recordings could provide information for prediction of LV remodelling after STEMI. The aim of the study was to assess the predictive value of global and regional LVMW for LV remodelling before discharge in pa...

Discovery of predictors of sudden cardiac arrest in diabetes: rationale and outline of the RESCUED (REcognition of Sudden Cardiac arrest vUlnErability in Diabetes) project.
van Dongen LH, Harms PP, Hoogendoorn M, Zimmerman DS, Lodder EM, 't Hart LM, Herings R, van Weert HCPM, Nijpels G, Swart KMA, van der Heijden AA, Blom MT, Elders PJ, Tan HL
Introduction: Early recognition of individuals with increased risk of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) remains challenging. SCA research so far has used data from cardiologist care, but missed most SCA victims, since they were only in general practitioner (GP) care prior to SCA. Studying individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) in GP care may help solve this problem, as they have increased risk for SCA, and rich clinical datasets, since they regularly visit their GP for check-up measurements. This info...

The ghosts of propagation past: haplotype information clarifies the relative influence of stocking history and phylogeographic processes on contemporary population structure of walleye (<i>Sander vitreus</i>).
Bootsma ML, Miller L, Sass GG, Euclide PT, Larson WA
Stocking of fish is an important tool for maintaining fisheries but can also significantly alter population genetic structure and erode the portfolio of within-species diversity that is important for promoting resilience and adaptability. Walleye (Sander vitreus) are a highly valued sportfish in the midwestern United States, a region characterized by postglacial recolonization from multiple lineages and an extensive history of stocking. We leveraged genomic data and recently developed analytical...

A Systematic Histopathologic Evaluation of Type-A Aortic Dissections Implies a Uniform Multiple-Hit Causation.
Grewal N, Velders BJJ, Gittenberger-de Groot AC, Poelmann R, Klautz RJM, Van Brakel TJ, Lindeman JHN
(1) Background: The pathophysiologic basis of an acute type A aortic dissection (TAAD) is largely unknown. In an effort to evaluate vessel wall defects, we systematically studied aortic specimens in TAAD patients. (2) Methods: Ascending aortic wall specimens (n = 58, mean age 63 years) with TAAD were collected. Autopsy tissues (n = 17, mean age 63 years) served as controls. All sections were studied histopathologically. (3) Results: Pathomorphology in TAAD showed predominantly moderate elastic f...

Introduction Excess iron accumulation occurs mainly in organs such as reticuloendothelial cells, the pituitary gland, and the pancreas in beta-thalassemia because of blood transfusions. In the present study, it was aimed to investigate the relationship between T2* values on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinically diagnosed pituitary endocrinological disorders in children with thalassemia major. Methods This study enrolled patients diagnosed with beta-thalassemia at pediatric hematology o...
