Open research Europe, Volume 3, 1 1 2023, Pages 82 The DECIDE project: from monitoring and surveillance data to decision-support for farmers and veterinarians. van Schaik G, Hostens M, Faverjon C, Jensen DB, Kristensen AR, Ezanno P, Frössling J, Dórea F, Jensen BB, Carmo LP, Steeneveld W, Rushton J, Gilbert W, Bearth A, Siegrist M, Kaler J, Ripperger J, Siehler J, de Wit S, Garcia-Morante B, Segalés J, Pardon B, Bokma J, Nielen M
Farmers, veterinarians and other animal health managers in the livestock sector are currently missing sufficient information on the prevalence and burden of contagious endemic animal diseases. They need adequate tools for risk assessment and prioritization of control measures for these diseases. The DECIDE project develops data-driven decision-support tools, which present (i) robust and early signals of disease emergence and options for diagnostic confirmation; and (ii) options for controlling t...

Journal of cardiovascular pharmacology and therapeutics, Volume 28, 1 1 2023, Pages 10742484231210704 The Clinical Implementation of <i>CYP2C19</i> Genotyping in Patients with an Acute Coronary Syndrome: Insights From the FORCE-ACS Registry. Azzahhafi J, Broek WWAVD, Chan Pin Yin DRPP, Harmsze AM, van Schaik RHN, Ten Berg JM
Background: Guidelines recommend prasugrel or ticagrelor for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients. However, these P2Y12 inhibitors increase bleeding risk compared to clopidogrel. Although genotype-guided P2Y12-inhibitor selection has been shown to reduce bleeding risk, data on its clinical implementation is lacking. Methods: The study included ACS patients receiving genotype-guided antiplatelet therapy, utilising either a point-of-care (POC) device or laboratory-based testing. We aimed to coll... Abstract

Background: BCG is recommended as intravesical immunotherapy to reduce the risk of tumor recurrence in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Currently, it is unknown whether intravesical BCG application induces trained immunity. Methods: The aim of this research was to determine whether BCG immunotherapy induces trained immunity in NMIBC patients. We conducted a prospective observational cohort study in 17 NMIBC patients scheduled for BCG therapy and measured trained immunity... Abstract

Euro surveillance : bulletin Europeen sur les maladies transmissibles = European communicable disease bulletin, Volume 28, Issue 1, 1 1 2023 Increase in invasive group A streptococcal (<i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i>) infections (iGAS) in young children in the Netherlands, 2022. de Gier B, Marchal N, de Beer-Schuurman I, Te Wierik M, Hooiveld M, ISIS-AR Study Group, GAS Study group, de Melker HE, van Sorge NM, Members of the GAS study group, Members of the ISIS-AR study group
In 2022, a sevenfold increase in the number of notifiable invasive Streptococcus pyogenes (iGAS) infections among children aged 0-5 years was observed in the Netherlands compared with pre-COVID-19 pandemic years. Of 42 cases in this age group, seven had preceding or coinciding varicella zoster infections, nine were fatal. This increase is not attributable to a specific emm type. Vigilance for clinical deterioration as iGAS sign is warranted in young children, especially those with varicella zost... Abstract

Background: Truncating variants in desmoplakin (DSPtv) are an important cause of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy; however the genetic architecture and genotype-specific risk factors are incompletely understood. We evaluated phenotype, risk factors for ventricular arrhythmias, and underlying genetics of DSPtv cardiomyopathy. Methods: Individuals with DSPtv and any cardiac phenotype, and their gene-positive family members were included from multiple international centers. Clinical data and family hi... Abstract

Journal of clinical medicine, Volume 12, Issue 1, 29 5 2022, Pages 272 Are Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm Patients at Increased Risk for Cardiovascular Diseases? Dolmaci OB, El Mathari S, Driessen AHG, Klautz RJM, Poelmann RE, Lindeman JHN, Grewal N
Objectives: Abdominal aortic aneurysms are associated with a sharply increased cardiovascular risk. Cardiovascular risk management is therefore recommended in prevailing guidelines for abdominal aneurysm patients. It has been hypothesized that associated risk relates to loss of aortic compliance. If this hypothesis is correct, observations for abdominal aneurysms would also apply to thoracic aortic aneurysms. The objective of this study is to test whether thoracic aneurysms are also associated w... Abstract

Ripping TM, Rammant E, Witjes JA, Aaronson NK, van Hemelrijck M, van Hoogstraten LMC, BlaZIB study group, Kiemeney LA, Aben KKH
Background: Quality of Life (QoL) of bladder cancer patients has been largely neglected. This is partly due to the lack of well-validated QoL questionnaires. The aim of this study is to examine the structural validity, reliability (i.e., internal consistency and test-retest reliability), construct validity (i.e., divergent validity and known group validity) and responsiveness of the Dutch version of the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer QoL questionnaire for muscle invas...

Background: Secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) is a progressive disease with characteristic pathophysiological changes that may influence prognosis. Although the staging of SMR patients suffering from heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) according to extramitral cardiac involvement has prognostic value in medically treated patients, such data are so far lacking for edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (M-TEER). Objectives: This study sought to classify M-TEER patients into disease... Abstract

Introduction: Left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy is the main feature of cardiac involvement in Anderson-Fabry disease (FD), but the right ventricle (RV) is also frequently affected. Previous studies failed to demonstrate an independent association between conventional parameters of RV performance and outcomes in FD. Nevertheless, if RV free wall strain (RV-FWS), assessed by 2D speckle tracking analysis, may provide a better prognostication is currently unknown. Methods: We retrospectively evaluat... Abstract

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (CNS) characterized by focal inflammatory lesions and prominent demyelination. Even though the currently available therapies are effective in treating the initial stages of disease, they are unable to halt or reverse disease progression into the chronic progressive stage. Thus far, no repair-inducing treatments are available for progressive MS patients. Hence, there is an urgent need for the development of new... Abstract

Background: Genetic variants within nearly 1000 loci are known to contribute to modulation of blood lipid levels. However, the biological pathways underlying these associations are frequently unknown, limiting understanding of these findings and hindering downstream translational efforts such as drug target discovery. Results: To expand our understanding of the underlying biological pathways and mechanisms controlling blood lipid levels, we leverage a large multi-ancestry meta-analysis (N = 1,65... Abstract
