van Schaik FD, ten Kate FJ, Offerhaus GJ, Schipper ME, Vleggaar FP, van der Woude CJ, Stokkers PC, de Jong DJ, Hommes DW, van Bodegraven AA, Siersema PD, Oldenburg B, Dutch Initiative on Crohn and Colitis
Background: The natural behavior of flat low-grade (LGD) and indefinite dysplasia (IND) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) remains uncertain and seems to be dependent on the interpretation of the pathologist. We studied the progression rate of flat LGD and IND to advanced neoplasia (high-grade dysplasia [HGD] or colorectal cancer [CRC]) before and after histopathological review by a panel of gastrointestinal expert pathologists. Methods: A nationwide pathology database was used to...

Image-guided tumor resection using real-time near-infrared fluorescence in a syngeneic rat model of primary breast cancer.
Mieog JS, Hutteman M, van der Vorst JR, Kuppen PJ, Que I, Dijkstra J, Kaijzel EL, Prins F, Löwik CW, Smit VT, van de Velde CJ, Vahrmeijer AL
Tumor involvement of resection margins is found in a large proportion of patients who undergo breast-conserving surgery. Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging is an experimental technique to visualize cancer cells during surgery. To determine the accuracy of real-time NIR fluorescence imaging in obtaining tumor-free resection margins, a protease-activatable NIR fluorescence probe and an intraoperative camera system were used in the EMR86 orthotopic syngeneic breast cancer rat model. Influence...

Fluctuations and determinism of respiratory impedance in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Muskulus M, Slats AM, Sterk PJ, Verduyn-Lunel S
Asthma and COPD are chronic respiratory diseases that fluctuate widely with regard to clinical symptoms and airway obstruction, complicating treatment and prediction of exacerbations. Time series of respiratory impedance obtained by the forced oscillation technique are a convenient tool to study the respiratory system with high temporal resolution. In previous studies it was suggested that power-law-like fluctuations exist also in the healthy lung and that respiratory system impedance variabilit...

European Federation of Neurological Societies/Peripheral Nerve Society Guideline on management of paraproteinemic demyelinating neuropathies. Report of a Joint Task Force of the European Federation of Neurological Societies and the Peripheral Nerve Society--first revision.
Joint Task Force of the EFNS and the PNS
The aim of this guideline is to update the 2006 EFNS/PNS guideline on management of patients with a demyelinating neuropathy and a paraprotein (paraproteinemic demyelinating neuropathy [PDN]) by review of evidence and expert consensus. In the absence of adequate evidence, the panel agreed on good practice points: (1) patients with PDN should be investigated for a malignant plasma cell dyscrasia; (2) a monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance is more likely to be causing the neuropathy...

On the psychology of cooperation in humans and other primates: combining the natural history and experimental evidence of prosociality.
Jaeggi AV, Burkart JM, Van Schaik CP
In any given species, cooperation involves prosocial acts that usually return a fitness benefit to the actor. These acts are produced by a set of psychological rules, which will be similar in related species if they have a similar natural history of cooperation. Prosocial acts can be (i) reactive, i.e. in response to specific stimuli, or (ii) proactive, i.e. occur in the absence of such stimuli. We propose that reactive prosocial acts reflect sensitivity to (i) signals or signs of need and (ii)...

Tolerant food sharing and reciprocity is precluded by despotism among bonobos but not chimpanzees.
Jaeggi AV, Stevens JM, Van Schaik CP
Tolerant food sharing among human foragers can largely be explained by reciprocity. In contrast, food sharing among chimpanzees and bonobos may not always reflect reciprocity, which could be explained by different dominance styles: in egalitarian societies reciprocity is expressed freely, while in more despotic groups dominants may hinder reciprocity. We tested the degree of reciprocity and the influence of dominance on food sharing among chimpanzees and bonobos in two captive groups. First, we...

Toll-like receptor 4 gene polymorphisms show no association with the risk of clinical or angiographic restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention.
Beijk MA, Boekholdt SM, Rittersma SZ, Pons D, Zwinderman AH, Doevendans PA, Tio RA, Tijssen JG, Jukema JW, de Winter RJ
Objective: Restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains an issue even in the drug-eluting stent era. Genetic polymorphisms may provide insight in the pathogenesis of restenosis and may help in the stratification of patients at risk for restenosis. The aim of this study was to examine whether polymorphisms at the toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) locus, that are associated with impaired innate immune system and with an increased risk of cardiovascular events, were associated with c...

High incidence of clinically relevant depressive symptoms in vulnerable persons of 75 years or older living in the community.
Dozeman E, van Marwijk HW, van Schaik DJ, Stek ML, van der Horst HE, Beekman AT, van Hout HP
Objectives: Clinically relevant depressive symptoms are highly prevalent in people who are 75 years of age or older. However, very old people with a vulnerable health status are under-represented in studies focussing on incidence and risk factors, while the risk of developing depressive symptoms is expected to be very high in this group. The incidence rates of clinically relevant depressive symptoms and their predictors were investigated in a vulnerable elderly population. Methods: In a communit...

Influence of left ventricular dysfunction (diastolic versus systolic) on long-term prognosis in patients with versus without diabetes mellitus having elective peripheral arterial surgery.
van Kuijk JP, Flu WJ, Valentijn TM, Chonchol M, Kuiper RJ, Verhagen HJ, Bax JJ, Poldermans D
Diabetes mellitus (DM) and left ventricular dysfunction (LVD) are often coexistent and invariably associated with increased mortality. Data on long-term prognosis of "isolated" diastolic LVD in diabetics are lacking; therefore, we evaluated these prognostic implications in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and DM. Using echocardiography, 1321 patients were screened for diastolic, systolic (ejection fraction 6.1 mmol/L were diagnosed with DM. The primary end point was occu...

The efficacy and safety of clopidogrel in vascular surgery patients with immediate postoperative asymptomatic troponin T release for the prevention of late cardiac events: Rationale and design of the Dutch Echocardiographic Cardiac Risk Evaluation Applying Stress Echo-VII (DECREASE-VII) trial.
van Kuijk JP, Voute MT, Flu WJ, Schouten O, Chonchol M, Hoeks SE, Boersma EE, Verhagen HJ, Bax JJ, Poldermans D
Background: Major vascular surgery patients are at high risk for developing asymptomatic perioperative myocardial ischemia reflected by a postoperative troponin release without the presence of chest pain or electrocardiographic abnormalities. Long-term prognosis is severely compromised and characterized by an increased risk of long-term mortality and cardiovascular events. Current guidelines on perioperative care recommend single antiplatelet therapy with aspirin as prophylaxis for cardiovascula...

Microbubble shape oscillations excited through ultrasonic parametric driving.
Versluis M, Goertz DE, Palanchon P, Heitman IL, van der Meer SM, Dollet B, de Jong N, Lohse D
An air bubble driven by ultrasound can become shape-unstable through a parametric instability. We report time-resolved optical observations of shape oscillations (mode n=2 to 6) of micron-sized single air bubbles. The observed mode number n was found to be linearly related to the ambient radius of the bubble. Above the critical driving pressure threshold for shape oscillations, which is minimal at the resonance of the volumetric radial mode, the observed mode number n is independent of the forci...
