Linking childhood emotional abuse and depressive symptoms: The role of emotion dysregulation and interpersonal problems.
Christ C, de Waal MM, Dekker JJM, van Kuijk I, van Schaik DJF, Kikkert MJ, Goudriaan AE, Beekman ATF, Messman-Moore TL
Childhood abuse is a major public health problem that has been linked to depression in adulthood. Although different types of childhood abuse often co-occur, few studies have examined their unique impact on negative mental health outcomes. Most studies have focused solely on the consequences of childhood physical or sexual abuse; however, it has been suggested that childhood emotional abuse is more strongly related to depression. It remains unclear which underlying psychological processes mediat...

Plasma LDL-Cholesterol Level at Admission is Independently Associated with Infarct Size in Patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Treated with Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.
Bodde MC, Hermans MPJ, Wolterbeek R, Cobbaert CM, van der Laarse A, Schalij MJ, Jukema JW
Introduction: Hypercholesterolemia is a well-known risk factor for developing atherosclerosis and subsequently for the risk of a myocardial infarction (MI). Moreover, it might also be related to the extent of damaged myocardium in the event of a MI. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of baseline low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-c) level with infarct size in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) after primary percutaneously coronary interventi...

Lee JH, Rizvi A, Hartaigh BÓ, Han D, Park MW, Roudsari HM, Stuijfzand WJ, Gransar H, Lu Y, Callister TQ, Berman DS, DeLago A, Hadamitzky M, Hausleiter J, Al-Mallah MH, Budoff MJ, Kaufmann PA, Raff GL, Chinnaiyan K, Cademartiri F, Maffei E, Villines TC, Kim YJ, Leipsic J, Feuchtner G, Pontone G, Andreini D, Marques H, de Araújo Gonçalves P, Rubinshtein R, Achenbach S, Shaw LJ, Chow BJW, Cury RC, Bax JJ, Chang HJ, Jones EC, Lin FY, Min JK, Peña JM
The prognostic performance of coronary artery calcium score (CACS) for predicting adverse outcomes in patients with decreased renal function remains unclear. We aimed to examine whether CACS improves risk stratification by demonstrating incremental value beyond a traditional risk score according to renal function status. 9,563 individuals without known coronary artery disease were enrolled. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR, ml/min/1.73 m2) was ascertained using the modified Modificatio...

A novel isoform of myosin 18A (Myo18Aγ) is an essential sarcomeric protein in mouse heart.
Horsthemke M, Nutter LMJ, Bachg AC, Skryabin BV, Honnert U, Zobel T, Bogdan S, Stoll M, Seidl MD, Müller FU, Ravens U, Unger A, Linke WA, van Gorp PRR, de Vries AAF, Bähler M, Hanley PJ
Whereas myosin 18B (Myo18B) is known to be a critical sarcomeric protein, the function of myosin 18A (Myo18A) is unclear, although it has been implicated in cell motility and Golgi shape. Here, we show that homozygous deletion (homozygous tm1a, tm1b, or tm1d alleles) of Myo18a in mouse is embryonic lethal. Reminiscent of Myo18b, Myo18a was highly expressed in the embryo heart, and cardiac-restricted Myo18a deletion in mice was embryonic lethal. Surprisingly, using Western blot analysis, we were...

Parathyroidectomy versus cinacalcet for tertiary hyperparathyroidism; a retrospective analysis.
Dulfer RR, Koh EY, van der Plas WY, Engelsman AF, van Dijkum EJMN, Pol RA, Vogt L, de Borst MH, Kruijff S, Schepers A, Appelman-Dijkstra NM, Rotmans JI, Hesselink DA, van Eijck CHJ, Hoorn EJ, van Ginhoven TM, Dutch Hyperparathyroid Study Group
Introduction: Tertiary hyperparathyroidism (tHPT), i.e., persistent HPT after kidney transplantation, affects 17-50% of transplant recipients. Treatment of tHPT is mandatory since persistently elevated PTH concentrations after KTx increase the risk of renal allograft dysfunction and osteoporosis. The introduction of cinacalcet in 2004 seemed to offer a medical treatment alternative to parathyroidectomy (PTx). However, the optimal management of tHPT remains unclear. Methods: A retrospective analy...

Pragt H, Pieper PG, van Slooten YJ, Freling HG, van Dijk APJ, Sieswerda GTJ, Bouma BJ, Post MC, Jongbloed MRM, Willems TP, Ebels T, van Melle JP
Most studies concerning valve replacement in congenital heart disease (CHD) focus on surgical morbidity and mortality. However, with the increased life expectancy of these patients, the focus shifts to quality of life (QOL). The aim of this study was to report and compare the QOL of CHD patients after valve replacement with the general population and to find factors associated with QOL. In a multicenter cross-sectional observational study of adults with CHD, QOL was measured with the RAND-36 que...

Putting post-decision wagering to the test: a measure of self-perceived knowledge in basic sciences?
Versteeg M, Steendijk P
Introduction: Students learn more effectively when they know what they do not know. Gaining insight into students' metacognitive awareness is needed as misalignment between actual and self-perceived knowledge impedes their learning process. The optimal method of measuring self-perceived knowledge is still under debate. In this study, we evaluate the use of psychology-derived post-decision wagering for mapping students self-perceived knowledge. Methods: Students (n = 71) performed a pre-test...

Transcatheter heart valve interventions: where are we? Where are we going?
Prendergast BD, Baumgartner H, Delgado V, Gérard O, Haude M, Himmelmann A, Iung B, Leafstedt M, Lennartz J, Maisano F, Marinelli EA, Modine T, Mueller M, Redwood SR, Rörick O, Sahyoun C, Saillant E, Søndergaard L, Thoenes M, Thomitzek K, Tschernich M, Vahanian A, Wendler O, Zemke EJ, Bax JJ
Transcatheter heart valve interventions have transformed the outcomes of patients with valvular heart disease (VHD) who are unfavourable candidates for surgery. Technological advances have allowed extension of these interventions to younger or lower risk patients and those with other forms of VHD and may in the future permit earlier treatment of VHD in less symptomatic patients or those with moderate disease. The balance of risks and benefits is likely to differ between lower and higher risk pat...
