Moderate aortic stenosis: importance of symptoms and left ventricular ejection fraction.
Stassen J, Ewe SH, Butcher SC, Amanullah MR, Hirasawa K, Singh GK, Sin KYK, Ding ZP, Pio SM, Sia CH, Chew NWS, Kong WKF, Poh KK, Cohen DJ, Généreux P, Leon MB, Marsan NA, Delgado V, Delgado V, Bax JJ
Aims: The aim of this study is to investigate the independent determinants of survival in patients with moderate aortic stenosis (AS), stratified by severity of symptoms and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Methods and results: Patients with a first diagnosis of moderate AS (aortic valve area >1.0 and ≤1.5 cm2) were identified. Patients were stratified by New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class (NYHA I, NYHA II, or NYHA III-IV) and LVEF (LVEF ≥60%, LVEF 50-59%, or LVEF...

Rooijakkers MJP, Li WWL, Stens NA, Vis MM, Tonino PAL, Timmers L, Van Mieghem NM, den Heijer P, Kats S, Stella PR, Roolvink V, van der Werf HW, Stoel MG, Schotborgh CE, Amoroso G, Porta F, van der Kley F, van Wely MH, Gehlmann H, van Garsse LAFM, Geuzebroek GSC, Verkroost MWA, Mourisse JM, Medendorp NM, van Royen N
Introduction: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has put tremendous pressure on healthcare systems. Most transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) centres have adopted different triage systems and procedural strategies to serve highest-risk patients first and to minimise the burden on hospital logistics and personnel. We therefore assessed the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on patient selection, type of anaesthesia and outcomes after TAVI. Methods: We used data from the Nethe...

Background: We examined age differences in whole-heart volumes of non-calcified and calcified atherosclerosis by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) of patients with future ACS. Methods: A total of 234 patients with core-lab adjudicated ACS after baseline CCTA were enrolled. Atherosclerotic plaque was quantified and characterized from the main epicardial vessels and side branches on a 0.5 mm cross-sectional basis. Calcified plaque and non-calcified plaque were defined by above or be...

Lymphatic Phenotype of Noonan Syndrome: Innovative Diagnosis and Possible Implications for Therapy.
Kleimeier LER, van Schaik C, Leenders E, Itkin M, Klein WM, Draaisma JMT
Dysregulation of the Ras/Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway is suggested to play a pivotal role in the development of the lymphatic system in patients with Noonan Syndrome (NS). Pathogenic gene variants in the Ras/MAPK pathway can therefore lead to various lymphatic diseases such as lymphedema, chylo-thorax and protein losing enteropathy. Diagnosis and treatment of the lymphatic phenotype in patients with NS remain difficult due to the variability of clinical presentation,...

Minimally Invasive Aortic Valve Replacement in Contemporary Practice: Clinical and Hemodynamic Performance from a Prospective Multicenter Trial.
Velders BJJ, Vriesendorp MD, Reardon MJ, Rao V, Lange R, Patel HJ, Gearhart E, Sabik JF, Klautz RJM
Background: The advent of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (AVR) has led to an increased emphasis on reducing the invasiveness of surgical procedures. The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical outcomes and hemodynamic performance achieved with minimally invasive aortic valve replacement (MI-AVR) as compared with conventional AVR. Methods: Patients who underwent surgical AVR with the Avalus bioprosthesis, as part of a prospective multicenter non-randomized trial, were included in this...

Background: After acute coronary syndrome (ACS), patients with a previous myocardial infarction (MI) may be at particularly high risk for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and death. We studied the effects of the PCSK9 inhibitor alirocumab in patients with recent ACS according to previous history of MI. Methods: The ODYSSEY OUTCOMES trial compared alirocumab with placebo, beginning 1 to 12 months after ACS with median 2.8-year follow-up. The primary MACE outcome comprised death from cor...

CURA: A clinical ethics support instrument for caregivers in palliative care.
Metselaar S, van Schaik M, Widdershoven G, Pasman HR
This article presents an ethics support instrument for healthcare professionals called CURA. It is designed with a focus on and together with nurses and nurse assistants in palliative care. First, we shortly go into the background and the development study of the instrument. Next, we describe the four steps CURA prescribes for ethical reflection: (1) Concentrate, (2) Unrush, (3) Reflect, and (4) Act. In order to demonstrate how CURA can structure a moral reflection among caregivers, we discuss h...

Longitudinal Molecular Profiling of Circulating Tumor Cells in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma.
Bootsma M, McKay RR, Emamekhoo H, Bade RM, Schehr JL, Mannino MC, Singh A, Wolfe SK, Schultz ZD, Sperger J, Xie W, Signoretti S, Kyriakopoulos CE, Kosoff D, Abel EJ, Helzer KT, Rydzewski N, Bakhtiar H, Shi Y, Blitzer G, Bassetti M, Floberg J, Yu M, Sethakorn N, Sharifi M, Harari PM, Choueiri TK, Lang JM, Zhao SG
Purpose: Liquid biopsies in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) provide a unique approach to understand the molecular basis of treatment response and resistance. This is particularly important in the context of immunotherapies, which target key immune-tumor interactions. Unlike metastatic tissue biopsies, serial real-time profiling of mRCC is feasible with our noninvasive circulating tumor cell (CTC) approach. Methods: We collected 457 longitudinal liquid biopsies from 104 patients with mRCC...

Immunogenicity and Reactogenicity in Q Fever Vaccine Development.
Fratzke AP, van Schaik EJ, Samuel JE
Coxiella burnetii is an obligate intracellular bacterium which, in humans, causes the disease Q fever. Although Q fever is most often a mild, self-limiting respiratory disease, it can cause a range of severe syndromes including hepatitis, myocarditis, spontaneous abortion, chronic valvular endocarditis, and Q fever fatigue syndrome. This agent is endemic worldwide, except for New Zealand and Antarctica, transmitted via aerosols, persists in the environment for long periods, and is maintained thr...

Assessing deterioration using impairment and functional outcome measures in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy: A post-hoc analysis of the immunoglobulin overtreatment in CIDP trial.
van Veen R, Wieske L, Lucke I, Adrichem ME, Merkies ISJ, van Schaik IN, Eftimov F
It is unclear whether frequently used cutoff values for outcome measures defining minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs) can accurately identify meaningful deterioration in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). We used data from the immunoglobulin overtreatment in CIDP (IOC) trial, in which 60 clinically stable patients with CIDP were randomized to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) withdrawal or continuation. We calculated change scores of the Inflammatory Rasch-Bui...

Impact of delayed sternal closure on wound infections following neonatal and infant cardiac surgery.
von Stumm M, Leps Y, Jochheim L, van Rüth V, Gottschalk U, Mueller G, Kozlik-Feldmann R, Hazekamp MG, Sachweh JS, Biermann D
Objectives: Delayed sternal closure is a routine procedure to reduce hemodynamic and respiratory instability in pediatric patients following cardiac surgery, particularly in neonates and infants. In this setting, the possible links between sternal wound infection and delayed sternal closure are still a matter of debate. As a part of our routine, there was a low threshold for delayed sternal closure, so we reviewed our experience with sternal wound infections with a focus on potentially related p...

Background: Both elevated and low resting heart rates are associated with atrial fibrillation (AF), suggesting a U-shaped relationship. However, evidence for a U-shaped causal association between genetically-determined resting heart rate and incident AF is limited. We investigated potential directional changes of the causal association between genetically-determined resting heart rate and incident AF. Method and results: Seven cohorts of the AFGen consortium contributed data to this meta-analysi...
