Local perivascular delivery of anti-restenotic agents from a drug-eluting poly(epsilon-caprolactone) stent cuff.
Pires NM, van der Hoeven BL, de Vries MR, Havekes LM, van Vlijmen BJ, Hennink WE, Quax PH, Jukema JW
The introduction of drug-eluting stents (DES) to prevent in-stent restenosis is one of the major advances in interventional cardiology. Currently many types of DES are under evaluation for effectiveness and safety, a time-consuming and difficult procedure in humans. An animal model that allows rapid evaluation of the present and upcoming therapeutic approaches to prevent in-stent restenosis is most valuable and still lacking. Here, a perivascular cuff to induce restenosis was constructed of a po...

[Retroperitoneal haematoma seen on CT scan in 2 patients with abdominal symptoms, aneurysm of the abdominal aorta and normal haemodynamics].
van der Laan L, Nagel PH, Lohle PN, van Berge Henegouwen DP, Hamming JF
In 2 patients, men aged 73 and 66 undergoing physical and ultrasound examinations for complaints of abdominal pain, an aneurysm of the abdominal aorta (AAA) with a diameter of 7-8 cm was discovered. Both their blood pressure and heart rate were normal. The older man then underwent a CT scan as did the younger man after being observed overnight. They both proved to have a ruptured AAA. They were operated on and recovered well. It can be problematic to diagnose a ruptured AAA quickly in patients w...

A modeling study on the sustainability of a certification-and-monitoring program for paratuberculosis in cattle.
Ezanno P, van Schaik G, Weber MF, Heesterbeek JA
Certification-and-monitoring programs for paratuberculosis are based on repetitive herd testing to establish a herd's health status. The available tests have poor sensitivity. Infected but undetected herds may remain among certified "paratuberculosis-free" herds. The objective was to determine if truly free herds acquire a certified status and keep it over time when infected but undetected herds remain. The Dutch program was used as a basis to construct a mechanistic deterministic...

Spectroscopy and photophysics of self-organized zinc porphyrin nanolayers. 2. Transport properties of singlet excitation.
Donker H, van Hoek A, van Schaik W, Koehorst RB, Yatskou MM, Schaafsma TJ
Exciton diffusion has been studied in 5-25-nm-thick films of zinc tetra-(p-octylphenyl)-porphyrin (ZnTOPP) spin-coated onto quartz slides by intentional doping with quenchers using steady-state as well as time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. The fluorescence spectra of the films are very similar to those of solutions, indicating emission from localized exciton states. From the dependence of the fluorescence quenching on the quencher concentration and fluorescence lifetime measurements, the e...

Gut permeability in neonates after a stage 1 Norwood procedure.
Malagon I, Onkenhout W, Klok M, van der Poel PF, Bovill JG, Hazekamp MG
Objective: Intestinal mucosal ischemia can occur during and after cardiac surgery. Severe decreases in mucosal perfusion may be a causative factor for postoperative mortality or complications such as necrotizing enterocolitis. Mesenteric perfusion is challenged preoperatively due to an imbalance between the systemic and pulmonary circulations and challenged intraoperatively due to hypothermic circulatory arrest. We have investigated gut permeability in seven patients undergoing stage 1 of the No...

Hemodynamic evaluation of saphenous vein coronary artery bypass grafts: relative merits of Doppler flow velocity and SPECT perfusion imaging.
Salm LP, Bax JJ, Jukema JW, Langerak SE, Vliegen HW, Steendijk P, Lamb HJ, de Roos A, van der Wall EE
Background: Coronary angiography is considered the gold standard in evaluating vein graft disease; however, angiography does not allow assessment of hemodynamic consequences of lesions. In this study hemodynamic consequences of significant stenoses in vein grafts were evaluated by Doppler velocity assessment, and results were compared with single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) perfusion imaging. Methods and results: Angiography was performed in 58 patients after coronary artery bypa...
