Bax JJ, Debonnaire P, Lancellotti P, Ajmone Marsan N, Tops LF, Min JK, Piazza N, Leipsic J, Hahn RT, Delgado V
Transcatheter therapies to treat mitral regurgitation are rapidly developing. Currently, there are several devices commercially available to treat mitral regurgitation. The underlying cause of mitral regurgitation and specific anatomical aspects of the mitral valve and surrounding structures are considered when patients with symptomatic severe mitral regurgitation for transcatheter mitral valve therapies are selected. Multimodality imaging plays an important central role in the selection of pati...

Left ventricular remodelling and change in left ventricular global longitudinal strain after cardiac resynchronization therapy: prognostic implications.
van der Bijl P, Kostyukevich MV, Khidir M, Ajmone Marsan N, Delgado V, Bax JJ
Aims: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) can reduce left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV), and a decrease of ≥15% is defined as a response. CRT can also improve LV global longitudinal strain (GLS). Changes in LVESV and LV GLS are individually associated with outcome post-CRT. We investigated LVESV and LV GLS changes and prognostic implications of improvement in LVESV and/or LV GLS, compared with no improvement in either parameter. Methods and results: Baseline and 6-month echocardiog...

Attack of the PCR clones: Rates of clonality have little effect on RAD-seq genotype calls.
Euclide PT, McKinney GJ, Bootsma M, Tarsa C, Meek MH, Larson WA
Interpretation of high-throughput sequence data requires an understanding of how decisions made during bioinformatic data processing can influence results. One source of bias that is often cited is PCR clones (or PCR duplicates). PCR clones are common in restriction site-associated sequencing (RAD-seq) data sets, which are increasingly being used for molecular ecology. To determine the influence PCR clones and the bioinformatic handling of clones have on genotyping, we evaluate four RAD-seq data...

Updated classification of norovirus genogroups and genotypes.
Chhabra P, de Graaf M, Parra GI, Chan MC, Green K, Martella V, Wang Q, White PA, Katayama K, Vennema H, Koopmans MPG, Vinjé J
Noroviruses are genetically diverse RNA viruses associated with acute gastroenteritis in mammalian hosts. Phylogenetically, they can be segregated into different genogroups as well as P (polymerase)-groups and further into genotypes and P-types based on amino acid diversity of the complete VP1 gene and nucleotide diversity of the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) region of ORF1, respectively. In recent years, several new noroviruses have been reported that warrant an update of the existing cla...

Antisense Oligonucleotide Inhibition of MicroRNA-494 Halts Atherosclerotic Plaque Progression and Promotes Plaque Stabilization.
van Ingen E, Foks AC, Kröner MJ, Kuiper J, Quax PHA, Bot I, Nossent AY
We have previously shown that third-generation antisense (3GA) inhibition of 14q32 microRNA (miRNA)-494 reduced early development of atherosclerosis. However, patients at risk of atherosclerotic complications generally present with advanced and unstable lesions. Here, we administered 3GAs against 14q32 miRNA-494 (3GA-494), miRNA-329 (3GA-329), or a control (3GA-ctrl) to mice with advanced atherosclerosis. Atherosclerotic plaque formation in LDLr-/- mice was induced by a 10-week high-fat diet and...

Mortality after amputation in dialysis patients is high but not modified by diabetes status.
Schroijen MA, van Diepen M, Hamming JF, Dekker FW, Dekkers OM
Background: Survival among dialysis patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) is inferior to survival of non-diabetic dialysis patients, probably due to the higher prevalence of diabetes-related comorbid conditions. One could hypothesize that these comorbid conditions also contribute to a decreased survival after amputation in diabetic patients compared with non-diabetic patients on dialysis. Methods: Data were collected from the Netherlands Cooperative Study on the Adequacy of Dialysis, a multicentr...

Background: Coronary artery calcification is a marker of underlying atherosclerotic vascular disease. The absence of coronary artery calcification is associated with a low prevalence of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD), but it cannot be ruled out completely. We sought to develop a clinical tool that can be added to Agatston score of zero to rule out obstructive CAD with high accuracy. Methods: We developed a clinical score retrospectively from a cohort of 4903 consecutive patients with...
