Prognostic Value of Natriuretic Peptides for All-Cause Mortality, Right Ventricular Failure, Major Adverse Events, and Myocardial Recovery in Advanced Heart Failure Patients Receiving a Left Ventricular Assist Device: A Systematic Review.
Janssen E, Jukema JW, Beeres SLMA, Schalij MJ, Tops LF
Aims: Major adverse event (MAE) rates during left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy in advanced heart failure (HF) patients are high, and impair quality of life and survival. Prediction and risk stratification of MAEs in order to improve patient selection and thereby outcome during LVAD therapy is therefore warranted. Circulating natriuretic peptides (NPs) are strong predictors of MAEs and mortality in chronic HF patients. However, whether NPs can identify patients who are at risk of MAEs...

Prognostic Value of Maximal and Submaximal Exercise Performance in Fontan Patients < 15 Years of Age.
Terol Espinosa de Los Monteros C, Harteveld LM, Kuipers IM, Rammeloo L, Hazekamp MG, Blom NA, Ten Harkel ADJ
In patients after Fontan completion exercise capacity is significantly reduced. Although peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak) is a strong prognostic factor in many cardiovascular diseases, it requires the achievement of a maximal effort. Therefore, submaximal exercise parameters such as oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES) may be of value. In the present observational study we evaluated the exercise capacity with maximal and submaximal parameters in a group of Fontan patients with an extracardiac...

The Cancer SENESCopedia: A delineation of cancer cell senescence.
Jochems F, Thijssen B, De Conti G, Jansen R, Pogacar Z, Groot K, Wang L, Schepers A, Wang C, Jin H, Beijersbergen RL, Leite de Oliveira R, Wessels LFA, Bernards R
Cellular senescence is characterized as a stable proliferation arrest that can be triggered by multiple stresses. Most knowledge about senescent cells is obtained from studies in primary cells. However, senescence features may be different in cancer cells, since the pathways that are involved in senescence induction are often deregulated in cancer. We report here a comprehensive analysis of the transcriptome and senolytic responses in a panel of 13 cancer cell lines rendered senescent by two dis...

Phosphorylcholine antibodies restrict infarct size and left ventricular remodelling by attenuating the unreperfused post-ischaemic inflammatory response.
Pluijmert NJ, de Jong RCM, de Vries MR, Pettersson K, Atsma DE, Jukema JW, Quax PHA
Phosphorylcholine is a pro-inflammatory epitope exposed on apoptotic cells, and phosphorylcholine monoclonal immunoglobulin (Ig)G antibodies (PC-mAb) have anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, we hypothesize that PC-mAb treatment reduces adverse cardiac remodelling and infarct size (IS) following unreperfused transmural myocardial infarction (MI). Unreperfused MI was induced by permanent ligation of the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery in hypercholesterolaemic APOE*3-Leiden...

Elevated resting heart rate is a marker of subclinical left ventricular dysfunction in hodgkin lymphoma survivors.
Heemelaar JC, Krol ADG, Louwerens M, L M A Beeres S, Holman ER, Schalij MJ, Louisa Antoni M
Background: Thoracic irradiation is one of the cornerstones of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) treatment, which contributes to high rates of long-term survivorship, but begets a life-long increased risk of heart disease including heart failure. At the cardio-oncology (CO) clinic, persistent sinus tachycardia or elevated resting heart rate (RHR) is frequently observed in these patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relation between RHR and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. Methods: In 75 HL s...

Assessment of Tissue Viability Following Amputation Surgery Using Near-Infrared Fluorescence Imaging With Indocyanine Green.
Van Den Hoven P, Van Den Berg SD, Van Der Valk JP, Van Der Krogt H, Van Doorn LP, Van De Bogt KEA, Van Schaik J, Schepers A, Vahrmeijer AL, Hamming JF, Van Der Vorst JR
Background: Patients with chronic limb threatening ischemia have a risk of undergoing a major amputation within 1 year of nearly 30% with a substantial risk of re-amputation since wound healing is often impaired. Quantitative assessment of regional tissue viability following amputation surgery can identify patients at risk for impaired wound healing. In quantification of regional tissue perfusion, near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging using Indocyanine Green (ICG) seems promising. Methods: Th...

Computed Tomography Derived Coronary Triangulated Orifice Area-Deduction of a New Parameter for Follow-up After Surgical Correction of Anomalous Aortic Origin of Coronary Arteries and Call for Validation.
Meijer FMM, Kiès P, Verheijen DBH, Vliegen HW, Jongbloed MRM, Hazekamp MG, Lamb HJ, Egorova AD
Introduction: Anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (AAOCA) from the opposite sinus of Valsalva is a rare congenital abnormality. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) is primarily used as a diagnostic tool to evaluate the anatomy and identify potentially malignant AAOCA variants. Limited data is available on the role of CTA during postoperative follow-up. We aimed to develop an objective CTA derived parameter for diagnostic evaluation and follow-up after surgical correction of AAOCA and...

Quantification of myocardial ischemia and subtended myocardial mass at adenosine stress cardiac computed tomography: a feasibility study.
van Driest FY, van der Geest RJ, Broersen A, Dijkstra J, El Mahdiui M, Jukema JW, Scholte AJHA
Combination of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and adenosine stress CT myocardial perfusion (CTP) allows for coronary artery lesion assessment as well as myocardial ischemia. However, myocardial ischemia on CTP is nowadays assessed semi-quantitatively by visual analysis. The aim of this study was to fully quantify myocardial ischemia and the subtended myocardial mass on CTP. We included 33 patients referred for a combined CCTA and adenosine stress CTP protocol, with good or excel...

Identification of Autophagy-Related Genes as Targets for Senescence Induction Using a Customizable CRISPR-Based Suicide Switch Screen.
Schepers A, Jochems F, Lieftink C, Wang L, Pogacar Z, Leite de Oliveira R, De Conti G, Beijersbergen RL, Bernards R
Pro-senescence therapies are increasingly being considered for the treatment of cancer. Identifying additional targets to induce senescence in cancer cells could further enable such therapies. However, screening for targets whose suppression induces senescence on a genome-wide scale is challenging, as senescent cells become growth arrested, and senescence-associated features can take 1 to 2 weeks to develop. For a screen with a whole-genome CRISPR library, this would result in billions of undesi...
