Vein graft failure: from pathophysiology to clinical outcomes.
de Vries MR, Simons KH, Jukema JW, Braun J, Quax PH
Occlusive arterial disease is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Aside from balloon angioplasty, bypass graft surgery is the most commonly performed revascularization technique for occlusive arterial disease. Coronary artery bypass graft surgery is performed in patients with left main coronary artery disease and three-vessel coronary disease, whereas peripheral artery bypass graft surgery is used to treat patients with late-stage peripheral artery occlusive disease. The great...

Ventricular tachycardia in repaired congenital heart disease.
Zeppenfeld K
Ventricular arrhythmias are an important cause of late morbidity and sudden cardiac death in the growing population of adults with repaired congenital heart disease. Risk stratification remains challenging because of the heterogeneity of the malformations and the surgical approaches. Therapeutic interventions depend on the type of ventricular arrhythmia, which can be polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibrillation in patients without ventricular scars, but also potentially f...

Quantification of human-associated fecal indicators reveal sewage from urban watersheds as a source of pollution to Lake Michigan.
Templar HA, Dila DK, Bootsma MJ, Corsi SR, McLellan SL
Sewage contamination of urban waterways from sewer overflows and failing infrastructure is a major environmental and public health concern. Fecal coliforms (FC) are commonly employed as fecal indicator bacteria, but do not distinguish between human and non-human sources of fecal contamination. Human Bacteroides and human Lachnospiraceae, two genetic markers for human-associated indicator bacteria, were used to identify sewage signals in two urban rivers and the estuary that drains to Lake Michig...

A novel transgenic rabbit model with reduced repolarization reserve: long QT syndrome caused by a dominant-negative mutation of the KCNE1 gene.
Major P, Baczkó I, Hiripi L, Odening KE, Juhász V, Kohajda Z, Horváth A, Seprényi G, Kovács M, Virág L, Jost N, Prorok J, Ördög B, Doleschall Z, Nattel S, Varró A, Bősze Z
Background and purpose: The reliable assessment of proarrhythmic risk of compounds under development remains an elusive goal. Current safety guidelines focus on the effects of blocking the KCNH2/HERG ion channel-in tissues and animals with intact repolarization. Novel models with better predictive value are needed that more closely reflect the conditions in patients with cardiac remodelling and reduced repolarization reserve. Experimental approach: We have developed a model for the long QT syndr...

Calcium Imaging of AM Dyes Following Prolonged Incubation in Acute Neuronal Tissue.
Cameron M, Kékesi O, Morley JW, Tapson J, Breen PP, van Schaik A, Buskila Y
Calcium-imaging is a sensitive method for monitoring calcium dynamics during neuronal activity. As intracellular calcium concentration is correlated to physiological and pathophysiological activity of neurons, calcium imaging with fluorescent indicators is one of the most commonly used techniques in neuroscience today. Current methodologies for loading calcium dyes into the tissue require prolonged incubation time (45-150 min), in addition to dissection and recovery time after the slicing proced...

Prognostic Implications of Elevated Pulmonary Artery Pressure After ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction.
Haeck ML, Hoogslag GE, Boden H, Velders MA, Katsanos S, Al Amri I, Debonnaire P, Schalij MJ, Vliegen HW, Bax JJ, Marsan NA, Delgado V
Elevated systolic pulmonary artery pressure (SPAP) after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been associated with adverse outcome. However, little is known about the development of increased SPAP after STEMI treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention. The aims of this study were to investigate the incidence and determinants of elevated SPAP (SPAP ≥36 mm Hg at 12 months) after first STEMI and to analyze its prognostic implications. A total of 705 patients (60 ± 12 ...

Titanium Plate Fixation versus Conventional Closure for Sternal Dehiscence after Cardiac Surgery.
Vos RJ, Jongbloed L, Sonker U, Kloppenburg GTL
Background Postoperative sternal dehiscence with or without mediastinitis is a complication of cardiac surgery leading to considerable disability. Titanium plate fixation can provide sternal stability in patients with a dehiscent sternum. The aim of this study is to compare clinical outcomes of titanium plate fixation with conventional treatment methods such as steel wire cerclage and pectoralis muscle reconstruction. Patients and Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 42 patients who...

Non-fatal disease burden for subtypes of depressive disorder: population-based epidemiological study.
Biesheuvel-Leliefeld KE, Kok GD, Bockting CL, de Graaf R, Ten Have M, van der Horst HE, van Schaik A, van Marwijk HW, Smit F
Background: Major depression is the leading cause of non-fatal disease burden. Because major depression is not a homogeneous condition, this study estimated the non-fatal disease burden for mild, moderate and severe depression in both single episode and recurrent depression. All estimates were assessed from an individual and a population perspective and presented as unadjusted, raw estimates and as estimates adjusted for comorbidity. Methods: We used data from the first wave of the second Nether...

Varied Practice in Laparoscopy Training: Beneficial Learning Stimulation or Cognitive Overload?
Spruit EN, Kleijweg L, Band GP, Hamming JF
Determining the optimal design for surgical skills training is an ongoing research endeavor. In education literature, varied practice is listed as a positive intervention to improve acquisition of knowledge and motor skills. In the current study we tested the effectiveness of a varied practice intervention during laparoscopy training. Twenty-four trainees (control group) without prior experience received a 3 weeks laparoscopic skills training utilizing four basic and one advanced training task....

Failure of the human heart to maintain sufficient output of blood for the demands of the body, heart failure, is a common condition with high mortality even with modern therapeutic alternatives. To identify molecular determinants of mortality in patients with new-onset heart failure, we performed a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies and follow-up genotyping in independent populations. We identified and replicated an association for a genetic variant on chromosome 5q22 with 36% incr...

Effect of different scenarios for selective dry-cow therapy on udder health, antimicrobial usage, and economics.
Scherpenzeel CGM, den Uijl IEM, van Schaik G, Riekerink RGMO, Hogeveen H, Lam TJGM
The goal of dry-cow therapy (DCT) is to reduce the prevalence of intramammary infections (IMI) by eliminating existing IMI at drying off and preventing new IMI from occurring during the dry period. Due to public health concerns, however, preventive use of antimicrobials has become questionable. In this study, we evaluated the effects of 8 scenarios for selecting animals for DCT, taking into account variation in parity and cow-level somatic cell count (SCC) at drying off. The aim of this study wa...

Reoperation for right ventricular outflow tract obstruction after arterial switch operation for transposition of the great arteries and aortic arch obstruction.
Bokenkamp R, Aguilar E, van der Palen RL, Sojak V, Bruggemans EF, Hruda J, Kuipers IM, Hazekamp MG
Objectives: Right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (RVOTO) is one of the reasons for late reinterventions after repair of transposition of the great arteries (TGA) with aortic arch obstruction (AAO). The aim of the present study was to identify predictors of reoperation for RVOTO in patients who underwent arterial switch operation (ASO) and arch repair for TGA or Taussig-Bing anomaly with AAO. Methods: Between 1977 and 2015, 45 patients [TGA/intact ventricular septum (IVS) 5, TGA/ventricula...

Time course, predictors, and prognostic implications of significant mitral regurgitation after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
Abate E, Hoogslag GE, Al Amri I, Debonnaire P, Wolterbeek R, Bax JJ, Delgado V, Marsan NA
Background: Ischemic mitral regurgitation (MR) is a known complication of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with important prognostic implications. We evaluated changes over time in ischemic MR after STEMI and the prevalence and predictors of significant (grade ≥2) MR at 12 months. Furthermore, the prognostic additional value of significant MR at 12-month follow-up over acute MR was assessed. Methods: STEMI patients (n = 1,599; 77% male; 60 ± 12 years) treated with primary percu...
