Journal of vascular surgery, Volume 67, Issue 6, 11 2 2017, Pages 1891-1900.e4 Adventitial adipogenic degeneration is an unidentified contributor to aortic wall weakening in the abdominal aortic aneurysm. Doderer SA, Gäbel G, Kokje VBC, Northoff BH, Holdt LM, Hamming JF, Lindeman JHN
Objective: The processes driving human abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) progression are not fully understood. Although antiinflammatory and proteolytic strategies effectively quench aneurysm progression in preclinical models, so far all clinical interventions failed. These observations hint at an incomplete understanding of the processes involved in AAA progression and rupture. Interestingly, strong clinical and molecular associations exist between popliteal artery aneurysms (PAAs) and AAAs; howe... Abstract

To evaluate the shared genetic etiology of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and coronary heart disease (CHD), we conducted a genome-wide, multi-ancestry study of genetic variation for both diseases in up to 265,678 subjects for T2D and 260,365 subjects for CHD. We identify 16 previously unreported loci for T2D and 1 locus for CHD, including a new T2D association at a missense variant in HLA-DRB5 (odds ratio (OR) = 1.29). We show that genetically mediated increase in T2D risk also confers higher CHD risk. J... Abstract

Mendi A, Yağci BG, Kiziloğlu M, Saraç N, Yilmaz D, Uğur A, Uçkan D
Introduction: Hypersensitivity, local irritative and cytotoxic effects are known for the chemical components of Syzygium aromaticum and Cinnamomum zeylanicum contained in dental materials. However, there is no intimate data in dentistry using the whole extracts of these plants and introducing new ones. Salvia triloba is a well-known anti-inflammatory plant that correspondingly could be used in several dental traumas. Objectives: We aimed to show and compare the effect of S. aromaticum, C. zeylan...

European heart journal. Cardiovascular Imaging, Volume 18, Issue 9, 1 1 2017, Pages 1041-1048 Three-dimensional transoesophageal echocardiography of the aortic valve and root: changes in aortic root dilation and aortic regurgitation. Regeer MV, Kamperidis V, Versteegh MIM, Schalij MJ, Marsan NA, Bax JJ, Delgado V
Aims: It has been hypothesized that in response to dilation of the aortic root, the aortic valve cusps may remodel to prevent aortic regurgitation (AR). The aim of the present study was to evaluate the association between aortic cusp dimensions and aortic root geometry. Methods and results: Three-dimensional transoesophageal echocardiography was performed in 40 patients with aortic root dilation (mean age 57 ± 12 years, 75% men, 35% bicuspid aortic valve) and 20 controls with a normal aortic roo...

Current treatment options in cardiovascular medicine, Volume 19, Issue 9, 1 1 2017, Pages 71 Current Challenges in Translating Tissue-Engineered Heart Valves. Stassen OMJA, Muylaert DEP, Bouten CVC, Hjortnaes J
Opinion statement: Heart valve disease is a major health burden, treated by either valve repair or valve replacement, depending on the affected valve. Nearly 300,000 valve replacements are performed worldwide per year. Valve replacement is lifesaving, but not without complications. The in situ tissue-engineered heart valve is a promising alternative to current treatments, but the translation of this novel technology to the clinic still faces several challenges. These challenges originate from th... Abstract

Pharmacogenetics and genomics, Volume 27, Issue 9, 1 1 2017, Pages 313-322 The combination of CYP3A4*22 and CYP3A5*3 single-nucleotide polymorphisms determines tacrolimus dose requirement after kidney transplantation. Lloberas N, Elens L, Llaudó I, Padullés A, van Gelder T, Hesselink DA, Colom H, Andreu F, Torras J, Bestard O, Cruzado JM, Gil-Vernet S, van Schaik R, Grinyó JM
Introduction: Tacrolimus (Tac) has a narrow therapeutic window and shows large between-patient pharmacokinetic variability. As a result, over-immunosuppression and under-immunosuppression are frequently encountered in daily clinical practice. Unraveling the impact of genetic polymorphisms on Tac pharmacokinetics may help to refine therapy. In this study, the associations of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in drug-metabolizing enzymes (CYP3A) with Tac pharmacokinetics were investigated in... Abstract

Adrichem ME, Starink MV, van Leeuwen EMM, Kramer C, van Schaik IN, Eftimov F
We describe six patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus (cLE) during immunoglobulin G (IgG) treatment. Five patients were diagnosed with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and one patient with possible CIDP. Five patients received intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) and one patient received subcutaneous immunoglobulin (SCIg). Skin lesions were systematically assessed by a dermatologist including skin biopsies. Patients showed disseminated erythematous plaques on several p... Abstract

It is now a decade since human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) were first described. The reprogramming of adult somatic cells to a pluripotent state has become a robust technology that has revolutionised our ability to study human diseases. Crucially, these cells capture all the genetic aspects of the patient from which they were derived. Combined with advances in generating the different cell types present in the human heart, this has opened up new avenues to study cardiac disease in hu... Abstract

Background: We need new biomarkers that can predict cardiovascular disease to improve both diagnosis and therapeutic strategies. The CIRCULATING CELLS study was designed to study the role of several cellular mediators of atherosclerosis as biomarkers of coronary artery disease (CAD). An objective and reproducible method for the quantification of CAD extension is required to establish relationships with these potential biomarkers. We sought to analyse the correlation of the SYNTAX score with know... Abstract
