Duration of rectal colonization with extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli: results of an open, dynamic cohort study in Dutch nursing home residents (2013-2019).
Weterings V, van den Bijllaardt W, Bootsma M, Hendriks Y, Kilsdonk L, Mulders A, Kluytmans J
Background: In 2016, a study in a Dutch nursing home showed prolonged colonization duration of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing (ESBL)-ST131 compared to ESBL-non-ST131. In this study, we assessed the duration of rectal ESBL-producing E. coli (ESBL-EC) colonization in residents in the same nursing home for an extended period of six years. We aimed to estimate the influence of a possible bias when follow up is started during an outbreak. Methods: Between 2013 and 2019, repetitive point prev...

[Cross-sectoral patient care in the district of Hamburg Harburg: an example of urological cooperation].
Abrams-Pompe RS, Fisch M, Rödder K, Neumann T, Reiß P, Hoppe M, Schneider AW
Background: Ensuring future urological care at the interface between out- and inpatient care is challenging due to demographic developments with an increasing proportion of urological diseases, the simultaneous threat of a shortage of physicians, and the increasing outpatient treatment of complex urological diseases. Objectives: The cross-sectoral cooperation model between a university maximum care provider and the urologic joint practice with a hospital affiliation (BAG) presented below can ser...

Surgical Repair of a Sinus of Valsalva Aneurysm.
Regeer MV, van der Zwaan HB, Schoof PH, van Aarnhem EEHL
A surgically challenging case of an unruptured Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SoVA) with severe aortic regurgitation (AR) due to cusp prolapse is presented. Sinus reconstruction with a patch cut out from the sinus portion of a Gelweave Valsalva graft (Terumo Vascutek) was performed. Intraoperative measurements showed insufficient effective height of the right coronary cusp; therefore, cusp plication and pericardial patch augmentation of the right coronary cusp were performed with satisfying result.

Relation of Myocardial Work Indexes and Forward Flow Reserve in Patients With Significant Secondary Mitral Regurgitation Undergoing Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair.
Yedidya I, Stassen J, Butcher SC, Pio SM, Lustosa RP, van der Bijl P, Vo NM, Namazi F, Marsan NA, Delgado V, Bax JJ
Left ventricular (LV) myocardial work (LVMW) indexes have shown incremental value over LV ejection fraction and were found to have prognostic significance in patients with secondary mitral regurgitation. We therefore aimed to investigate the association between LVMW indexes and forward flow reserve in patients with secondary mitral regurgitation, treated with transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER). LVMW indexes were evaluated at baseline and forward stroke volume index (FSVI) was evaluated at...

Optimizing Smoking Cessation Counseling in a University Hospital: Results and Pitfalls.
de Frel DL, Janssen VR, Meijer E, Atsma DE
Background: Healthcare professionals (HPs) can play a substantial role in smoking cessation counseling (SCC) but in practice often skip this task due to time constraints. This study evaluates the implementation of the rapid Ask-Advise-Connect (AAC) method in a University hospital setting. Methods: This mixed methods pre-post interventional study was performed at the Cardiology department of a University hospital and consisted of (1) a quantitative assessment of patient smoking registration and H...

Nonpharmacological Applications During the Retinopathy of Prematurity Examination and Their Effects on Pain Control: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Erçelik ZE, Yilmaz D
Examination for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a very painful procedure. Therefore, pain management is essential given the possibility of sensory and behavioral problems in newborns, who are constantly exposed to painful stimuli. In this light, the use of nonpharmacological methods alone or in combination with pharmacological methods is recommended for pain control. This systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the effects of nonpharmacological treatments on pain during ROP exami...

Akgül F, Er A, Çağlar A, Ulusoy E, Çitlenbik H, Duman M, Yılmaz D
Background: Thoracoabdominal injuries (TAI) are an important cause of trauma-related morbidity in children. Early and correct intervention is essential to reduce mortality. We aimed to determine factors associated with mortality and the need for intensive care in TAI. Methods: The children admitted to the pediatric emergency department of a tertiary care hospital with TAI in a 6-year-period were enrolled. Demographic data; mechanism of injuries; clinical, laboratory and imaging findings; length...

Reliability of bedside tests for diagnosing peripheral arterial disease in patients prone to medial arterial calcification: A systematic review.
Brouwers JJWM, Willems SA, Goncalves LN, Hamming JF, Schepers A
Background: Medial arterial calcification (MAC), frequently associated with diabetes mellitus (DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD), is a systemic vascular disorder leading to stiffness and incompressible arteries. These changes impede the accuracy of bedside tests to diagnose peripheral arterial disease (PAD). This review aimed to evaluate the reliability of bedside tests for the detection of PAD in patients prone to MAC. Methods: A systematic search (Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane, a...

Optical ventricular cardioversion by local optogenetic targeting and LED implantation in a cardiomyopathic rat model.
Nyns ECA, Jin T, Fontes MS, van den Heuvel T, Portero V, Ramsey C, Bart CI, Zeppenfeld K, Zeppenfeld K, Schalij MJ, van Brakel TJ, Ramkisoensing AA, Zhang G, Poelma RH, Ördög B, de Vries AAF, Pijnappels DA
Aims: Ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VTs) are common in the pathologically remodelled heart. These arrhythmias can be lethal, necessitating acute treatment like electrical cardioversion to restore normal rhythm. Recently, it has been proposed that cardioversion may also be realized via optically controlled generation of bioelectricity by the arrhythmic heart itself through optogenetics and therefore without the need of traumatizing high-voltage shocks. However, crucial mechanistic and translation...

Association between computed tomography-derived tricuspid annular dimensions and prognosis: insights from whole-beat computed tomography assessment.
Hirasawa K, Fortuni F, van Rosendael PJ, Ajmone Marsan N, Bax JJ, Delgado V
Aims: Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) has been associated with outcome in patients treated with transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Tricuspid annulus (TA) dimensions are associated with TR. However, the TA is highly dynamic during the cardiac cycle, and the interaction between the TA dimensions, TR, and patient prognosis has never been evaluated. This study aimed to characterize the dynamics of the TA along with the cardiac cycle and its association with prognosis in patients undergoing...

Normal and abnormal development of the aortic valve and ascending aortic wall: a comprehensive overview of the embryology and pathology of the bicuspid aortic valve.
Grewal N, Gittenberger-de Groot AC, Lindeman JH, Klautz A, Driessen A, Klautz RJM, Poelmann RE
A bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most prevalent congenital cardiac anomaly, in which the valve has only two leaflets, instead of the normal three. Patients with a BAV have an increased risk of aneurysm formation and the development of an aortic dissection. Vascular smooth muscle cells in both the non- and dilated aortic wall are characterized by a maturation defect in all BAV patients, as compared to patients with a tricuspid aortic valve, which can contribute to inherent developmental susce...

Apolipoprotein B, Residual Cardiovascular Risk After Acute Coronary Syndrome, and Effects of Alirocumab.

Background: Apolipoprotein B (apoB) provides an integrated measure of atherogenic risk. Whether apoB levels and apoB lowering hold incremental predictive information on residual risk after acute coronary syndrome beyond that provided by low-density lipoprotein cholesterol is uncertain. Methods: The ODYSSEY OUTCOMES trial (Evaluation of Cardiovascular Outcomes After an Acute Coronary Syndrome During Treatment With Alirocumab) compared the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitor al...

Background: The knowledge of factors influencing disease progression in patients with established coronary heart disease (CHD) is still relatively limited. One potential pathway is related to peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1 alpha (PPARGC1A), a transcription factor linked to energy metabolism which may play a role in the heart function. Thus, its associations with subsequent CHD events remain unclear. We aimed to investigate the effect of three different SNPs in the...
