Background: Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is associated with ventricular arrhythmias (VA) and sudden cardiac death (SCD). A model was recently developed to predict incident sustained VA in patients with ARVC. However, since this outcome may overestimate the risk for SCD, we aimed to specifically predict life-threatening VA (LTVA) as a closer surrogate for SCD. Methods: We assembled a retrospective cohort of definite ARVC cases from 15 centers in North America and Europe....

White matter hyperintensities (WMH) are the most common brain-imaging feature of cerebral small vessel disease (SVD), hypertension being the main known risk factor. Here, we identify 27 genome-wide loci for WMH-volume in a cohort of 50,970 older individuals, accounting for modification/confounding by hypertension. Aggregated WMH risk variants were associated with altered white matter integrity (p = 2.5×10-7) in brain images from 1,738 young healthy adults, providing insight into the lifetime imp...

A shock-free approach for ambulatory cardioversion in atrial fibrillation.
De Coster T
Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common persistent arrhythmia, is terminated most effectively by electrical cardioversion. This therapy requires in-hospital sedation to relieve the pain caused by electric shocks. Recently, our research group showed how the heart itself could be enabled to detect and terminate arrhythmias, including AF, thereby revealing the discovery of fully biological, shock-free cardioversion. Because of its biological nature, neither electric shocks nor hardware/software i...

Assessment of Microvessel Permeability in Murine Atherosclerotic Vein Grafts Using Two-Photon Intravital Microscopy.
Baganha F, Ritsma L, Quax PHA, de Vries MR
Plaque angiogenesis and plaque hemorrhage are major players in the destabilization and rupture of atherosclerotic lesions. As these are dynamic processes, imaging of plaque angiogenesis, especially the integrity or leakiness of angiogenic vessels, can be an extremely useful tool in the studies on atherosclerosis pathophysiology. Visualizing plaque microvessels in 3D would enable us to study the architecture and permeability of adventitial and intimal plaque microvessels in advanced atherosclerot...

Predictive factors for surgical treatment in preterm neonates with necrotizing enterocolitis: a multicenter case-control study.
El Manouni El Hassani S, Niemarkt HJ, Derikx JPM, Berkhout DJC, Ballón AE, de Graaf M, de Boode WP, Cossey V, Hulzebos CV, van Kaam AH, Kramer BW, van Lingen RA, Vijlbrief DC, van Weissenbruch MM, Benninga MA, de Boer NKH, de Meij TGJ
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is one of the most common and lethal gastrointestinal diseases in preterm infants. Early recognition of infants in need for surgical intervention might enable early intervention. In this multicenter case-control study, performed in nine neonatal intensive care units, preterm born infants (< 30 weeks of gestation) diagnosed with NEC (stage ≥ IIA) between October 2014 and August 2017 were divided into two groups: (1) medical (conservative treatment) and (2) surgi...

Phosphorylcholine Antibodies Preserve Cardiac Function and Reduce Infarct Size by Attenuating the Post-Ischemic Inflammatory Response.
Pluijmert NJ, de Jong RCM, de Vries MR, Pettersson K, Atsma DE, Jukema JW, Quax PHA
Phosphorylcholine monoclonal immunoglobulin G antibody attenuates the immediate post-ischemic inflammatory response by reducing the proinflammatory chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 chemokine and circulating Ly-6Chi monocytes. This subsequently enhances the post-ischemic repair process, resulting in limited adverse cardiac remodeling and preservation of cardiac function. Therefore, phosphorylcholine monoclonal immunoglobulin G antibody therapy may be a valid therapeutic approach against myocardial...

Universal mechanisms for self-termination of rapid cardiac rhythm.
Biasci V, Sacconi L, Cytrynbaum EN, Pijnappels DA, De Coster T, Shrier A, Glass L, Bub G
Excitable media sustain circulating waves. In the heart, sustained circulating waves can lead to serious impairment or even death. To investigate factors affecting the stability of such waves, we have used optogenetic techniques to stimulate a region at the apex of a mouse heart at a fixed delay after the detection of excitation at the base of the heart. For long delays, rapid circulating rhythms can be sustained, whereas for shorter delays, there are paroxysmal bursts of activity that start and...

Improving lipid management in patients with acute coronary syndrome: The ACS Lipid EuroPath tool.
Sionis A, Catapano AL, De Ferrari GM, Dudek D, Jukema JW, Landmesser U, Pirillo A, Schiele F, Zaman A, Zamorano JL
Post-acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients are at very high risk for recurrent events and mortality, despite the availability of effective pharmacological approaches. In 2018, the ACS EuroPath Survey, performed in collaboration with 555 European cardiologists, identified a sub-optimal LDL-C management in post-ACS patients. Based on these premises, the ACS EuroPath II project led to the development of a self-assessment tool to improve lipid management in these very high risk patients, taking int...

Social Context Influences Resting Physiology in Dogs.
Kortekaas K, Kotrschal K
Domestication has affected the social life of dogs. They seem to be less dependent on their pack members than wolves, potentially causing dogs to be more alert towards their environment, especially when resting. Such a response has been found in dogs resting alone compared to wolves in the same situation. However, as this may be influenced by social context, we compared alertness (i.e., degree of activation along the sleep-wake continuum-measured via cardiac parameters) of pack-living and enclos...

Context-Specific Arousal During Resting in Wolves and Dogs: Effects of Domestication?
Jean-Joseph H, Kortekaas K, Range F, Kotrschal K
Due to domestication, dogs differ from wolves in the way they respond to their environment, including to humans. Selection for tameness and the associated changes to the autonomic nervous system (ANS) regulation have been proposed as the primary mechanisms of domestication. To test this idea, we compared two low-arousal states in equally raised and kept wolves and dogs: resting, a state close to being asleep, and inactive wakefulness, which together take up an important part in the time budgets...
