The transferability and validity of a population-level simulation model for the economic evaluation of interventions in diabetes: the MICADO model.
Emamipour S, Pagano E, Di Cuonzo D, Konings SRA, van der Heijden AA, Elders P, Beulens JWJ, Leal J, Feenstra TL
Aims: Valid health economic models are essential to inform the adoption and reimbursement of therapies for diabetes mellitus. Often existing health economic models are applied in other countries and settings than those where they were developed. This practice requires assessing the transferability of a model developed from one setting to another. We evaluate the transferability of the MICADO model, developed for the Dutch 2007 setting, in two different settings using a range of adjustment steps....

Franken LG, Francke MI, Andrews LM, van Schaik RHN, Li Y, de Wit LEA, Baan CC, Hesselink DA, de Winter BCM
Background and objective: The tacrolimus concentration within peripheral blood mononuclear cells may correlate better with clinical outcomes after transplantation compared to concentrations measured in whole blood. However, intracellular tacrolimus measurements are not easily implemented in clinical practice. The prediction of intracellular concentrations based on whole-blood concentrations would be a solution for this. Therefore, the aim of this study was to describe the relationship between in...

FK506-Binding Protein 11 Is a Novel Plasma Cell-Specific Antibody Folding Catalyst with Increased Expression in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis.
Preisendörfer S, Ishikawa Y, Hennen E, Winklmeier S, Schupp JC, Knüppel L, Fernandez IE, Binzenhöfer L, Flatley A, Juan-Guardela BM, Ruppert C, Guenther A, Frankenberger M, Hatz RA, Kneidinger N, Behr J, Feederle R, Schepers A, Hilgendorff A, Kaminski N, Meinl E, Bächinger HP, Eickelberg O, Staab-Weijnitz CA
Antibodies are central effectors of the adaptive immune response, widespread used therapeutics, but also potentially disease-causing biomolecules. Antibody folding catalysts in the plasma cell are incompletely defined. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal chronic lung disease with increasingly recognized autoimmune features. We found elevated expression of FK506-binding protein 11 (FKBP11) in IPF lungs where FKBP11 specifically localized to antibody-producing plasma cells. Suggesting a...

Body mass index at diagnosis of a childhood brain tumor; a reflection of hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction or lifestyle?
van Roessel IMAA, van Schaik J, Meeteren AYNS, Boot AM, der Grinten HLC, Clement SC, van Iersel L, Han KS, van Trotsenburg ASP, Vandertop WP, Kremer LCM, van Santen HM
Purpose: Childhood brain tumor survivors (CBTS) are at risk of becoming overweight, which has been shown to be associated with hypothalamic-pituitary (HP) dysfunction during follow-up. Body mass index (BMI) at diagnosis is related to BMI at follow-up. It is uncertain, however, whether aberrant BMI at brain tumor diagnosis reflects early hypothalamic dysfunction or rather reflects genetic and sociodemographic characteristics. We aimed to examine whether BMI at childhood brain tumor diagnosis is a...

Influence of Receptor Polymorphisms on the Response to α-Adrenergic Receptor Blockers in Pheochromocytoma Patients.
Berends AMA, Bolhuis MS, Nolte IM, Buitenwerf E, Links TP, Timmers HJLM, Feelders RA, Eekhoff EMW, Corssmit EPM, Bisschop PH, Haak HR, van Schaik RHN, El Bouazzaoui S, Wilffert B, Kerstens MN
Background: Presurgical treatment with an α-adrenergic receptor blocker is recommended to antagonize the catecholamine-induced α-adrenergic receptor mediated vasoconstriction in patients with pheochromocytoma or sympathetic paraganglioma (PPGL). There is, however, a considerable interindividual variation in the dose-response relationship regarding the magnitude of blood pressure reduction or the occurrence of side effects. We hypothesized that genetically determined differences in α-adrenergic r...

A comprehensive lymphatic system is indispensable for a well-functioning body; it is integral to the immune system and is also interrelated with the digestive system and fluid homeostasis. The main difficulty in examining the lymphatic system is its fine-meshed structure. This remains a challenge, leaving patients with uninterpreted symptoms and a dearth of potential therapies. We review the history of the lymphatic system up to the present with the aim of improving current knowledge. Several fi...

How infant-directed actions enhance infants' attention, learning, and exploration: Evidence from EEG and computational modeling.
Meyer M, van Schaik JE, Poli F, Hunnius S
When teaching infants new actions, parents tend to modify their movements. Infants prefer these infant-directed actions (IDAs) over adult-directed actions and learn well from them. Yet, it remains unclear how parents' action modulations capture infants' attention. Typically, making movements larger than usual is thought to draw attention. Recent findings, however, suggest that parents might exploit movement variability to highlight actions. We hypothesized that variability in movement...
