A vision to the future: value-based laboratory medicine.
Plebani M, Cadamuro J, Vermeersch P, Jovičić S, Ozben T, Trenti T, McMillan B, Lowe CR, Lennerz J, Macintyre E, Gabelli C, Sandberg S, Padoan A, Wiencek JR, Banfi G, Lubin IM, Orth M, Carobene A, Zima T, Cobbaert CM, van Schaik RHN, Lippi G
The ultimate goal of value-based laboratory medicine is maximizing the effectiveness of laboratory tests in improving patient outcomes, optimizing resources and minimizing unnecessary costs. This approach abandons the oversimplified notion of test volume and cost, in favor of emphasizing the clinical utility and quality of diagnostic tests in the clinical decision-making. Several key elements characterize value-based laboratory medicine, which can be summarized in some basic concepts, such as or...

Nucleolus and centromere Tyramide Signal Amplification-Seq reveals variable localization of heterochromatin in different cell types.
Kumar P, Gholamalamdari O, Zhang Y, Zhang L, Vertii A, van Schaik T, Peric-Hupkes D, Sasaki T, Gilbert DM, van Steensel B, Ma J, Kaufman PD, Belmont AS
Genome differential positioning within interphase nuclei remains poorly explored. We extended and validated Tyramide Signal Amplification (TSA)-seq to map genomic regions near nucleoli and pericentric heterochromatin in four human cell lines. Our study confirmed that smaller chromosomes localize closer to nucleoli but further deconvolved this by revealing a preference for chromosome arms below 36-46 Mbp in length. We identified two lamina associated domain subsets through their differential nucl...

Evaluation of a voluntary passive surveillance component in cattle through notification of excess mortality.
Vredenberg I, van Schaik G, van der Poel WHM, Stegeman A
Passive surveillance can be most effective in the early detection of disease outbreaks given that farmers observe their animals daily. The European Animal Health Law states that unexplained excess mortality should be reported to the veterinary authorities. In the Netherlands, in addition to notifications to the competent authority, Royal GD is commissioned a passive surveillance component that consists of a veterinary helpdesk and postmortem examination for early detection of emerging diseases....

The "angioletti" of Palermo: the health and development of mummified non-adults in late modern Palermo, Sicily (1787-1880 CE).
Squires K, Viner M, Hoban W, Loynes R, Van Schaik K, Piombino-Mascali D
The Capuchin Catacombs in Palermo, Sicily, have been home to non-adult mummified remains since the seventeenth century CE. Despite the increasing numbers of scientific studies conducted at this site, very little research has focused specifically on the youngest members of late modern (1787-1880 CE) society. This research aims to redress the balance by examining 43 individuals to gain insight into the demographic profile of mummified non-adults, to characterize their health status and possible ca...

Arterial inflammation on [<sup>18</sup>F]FDG PET/CT in melanoma patients treated with and without immune checkpoint inhibitors: CHECK-FLAME I.
Polomski EAS, Kapiteijn EW, Heemelaar JC, van der Kolk AV, Kalisvaart TM, van de Burgt A, Dibbets-Schneider P, van Velden FHP, Seijkens TTP, Stöger JL, Jukema JW, de Geus-Oei LF, Antoni ML
Background and aims: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) revolutionized cancer treatment. However, ICIs may increase the immune response to non-tumor cells, possibly resulting in increased arterial inflammation, raising the risk of atherosclerotic events. Nevertheless, malignancies may induce a pro-inflammatory state and the association between ICIs and arterial inflammation remains to be clarified. This study aims to assess differences in increase in arterial inflammation between patients with...

Background: The Efficacy of Delayed Enhancement MRI-Guided Fibrosis Ablation vs Conventional Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation randomized trial showed no difference in atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence with additional delayed enhancement magnetic resonance imaging (DE-MRI) fibrosis-targeted ablation to pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in persistent AF. Objective: We evaluated the effect of lesion delivery on ablation-induced scarring and AF recurrence. Methods: Lesions delivered, targetin...

Memory-efficient neurons and synapses for spike-timing-dependent-plasticity in large-scale spiking networks.
Urbizagastegui P, van Schaik A, Wang R
This paper addresses the challenges posed by frequent memory access during simulations of large-scale spiking neural networks involving synaptic plasticity. We focus on the memory accesses performed during a common synaptic plasticity rule since this can be a significant factor limiting the efficiency of the simulations. We propose neuron models that are represented by only three state variables, which are engineered to enforce the appropriate neuronal dynamics. Additionally, memory retrieval is...

Maximal Systolic Acceleration and Near-Infrared Fluorescence Imaging With Indocyanine Green as Predictors for Successful Lower Extremity Revascularization.
Kruiswijk MW, Willems SA, Koning S, Tange FP, J W M Brouwers J, Peul RC, van Schaik J, Schepers A, Hamming J, van der Bogt KEA, van Rijswijk CSP, Vahrmeijer AL, van den Hoven P, van der Vorst JR
Background: Patients with lower extremity arterial disease (LEAD) frequently require revascularization procedures. Currently used diagnostic methods are insufficient in predicting successful outcomes and focus on macrovascular rather than microvascular state. Several promising modalities to increase diagnostic accuracy are emerging, including maximal systolic acceleration (ACCmax), measured by duplex ultrasound (DUS). For the assessment of tissue perfusion, near-infrared fluorescence (NIR) imagi...

Introduction: Patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) remain vulnerable to future major atherosclerotic events after revascularization, despite effective secondary prevention strategies. Inflammation plays a central role in the pathogenesis of CAD and recurrent events. To date, there is no specific anti-inflammatory medicine available with proven effective, cost-efficient, and favorable benefit-risk profile, except for colchicine. Initial studies with colchicine have sparked major interest i...

Background: The perception of takotsubo syndrome (TTS) has evolved significantly over the years, primarily driven by increased recognition of acute complications and mortality. Objectives: This study aimed to explore temporal trends in demographic patterns, risk factors, clinical presentations, and outcomes in patients with TTS. Methods: Patients diagnosed with TTS between 2004 and 2021 were enrolled from the InterTAK (International Takotsubo) registry. To assess temporal trends, patients were d...

Electrical Signaling Beyond Neurons.
Monk T, Dennler N, Ralph N, Rastogi S, Afshar S, Urbizagastegui P, Jarvis R, van Schaik A, Adamatzky A
Neural action potentials (APs) are difficult to interpret as signal encoders and/or computational primitives. Their relationships with stimuli and behaviors are obscured by the staggering complexity of nervous systems themselves. We can reduce this complexity by observing that "simpler" neuron-less organisms also transduce stimuli into transient electrical pulses that affect their behaviors. Without a complicated nervous system, APs are often easier to understand as signal/response mec...

We report an increase in GII.17 norovirus outbreaks and sporadic infections of acute gastroenteritis in Austria, Germany, France, Ireland, the Netherlands, England and the United States during the 2023/24 season. A decrease in GII.4 coincided with GII.17 prevalence increasing to between 17% and 64% of all GII detections. Overall, 84% of the GII.17 strains clustered closely with strains first reported in Romania in 2021 and two new sub-lineages were identified. Norovirus surveillance and molecula...

Pericoronary adipose tissue for predicting long-term outcomes.
van Rosendael SE, Kamperidis V, Maaniitty T, de Graaf MA, Saraste A, McKay-Goodall GE, Jukema JW, Knuuti J, Bax JJ
Aims: Pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) attenuation obtained by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) has been associated with coronary inflammation and outcomes. Whether PCAT attenuation is predictive of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) during long-term follow-up is unknown. Methods and results: Symptomatic patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) who underwent CCTA were included, and clinical outcomes were evaluated. PCAT was measured at all lesions for all three major coronar...
